Private house in Baden-Württemberg

The overall image of this modern single-family house, located on a narrow hillside at the foot of the Swabian Alb, is characterised by its open, transparent façade. The wide window walls, slender aluminium windows and glazed fanlight all combine to create large glass surfaces that allow for excellent lighting that shows off the owners’ artworks in the open spaces. A shading system that uses blinds mounted in a housing under the plaster provides the necessary protection against the sun while leaving the façade undisturbed.
