The property is located at the end of a small residential road with an existing development predominantly from the 1960s, on the northern edge of Stuttgart-Schoenberg and directly adjoining to the forest.
The garage body, which extends below the house, shields the house and the garden from the street and directs the arriving via a small “piazza” to the entrance.
Inside, a large void above the entrance connects all three floors of the house and provides a wide range of views. Sunbeams fall deep into the house through the numerous skylights at any time of the day or season.
Downstairs are the access, as well as wardrobe, storage, auxiliary rooms and a spa area.
The dining and living area on the ground floor is oriented with its open glazing over the terrace towards the west to the garden and the forest.
Upstairs are the bedrooms of the family of three, bathrooms, and a studio.
Latest technologies and modern energy supply were as important to the clients as simplicity, timelessness and the high processing quality of the durable and genuine materials.
The entire interior, all fixtures and cupboards were planned as an integral part of the overall architecture and are designed and individually manufactured for this house.
The house is heated by an air source heat pump.
The required electrical energy is supplied by a large-scale photovoltaic system.
Clear surfaces, bespoke fixtures and concealed technical elements create a quiet, open and bright background for the lives of the residents.
