Sommelier’s Home – Budapest House

Sommerlier's Home Exterior 1

Design: Architema Ltd

The residence is located in the suburban area of Budapest. Built on a plot that offers a spectacular panorama and steeply slopes on the north side.

The asymmetrically structured facades with their vast glazed surfaces, and the vertically shifted roof levels make both the building and the interior spaces characteristic.
