Perched above a tranquil pond, this family home has been designed to embrace rural living while ensuring absolute comfort and privacy. Thanks to its masterful connection with nature and open, light-filled spaces, the house seamlessly extends into the surrounding landscape.
Designed by Architekti.in, the architecture follows clear horizontal lines and a minimalist form, allowing the materials to take centre stage. The structure flows effortlessly between indoor and outdoor spaces, with the garden becoming an organic part of daily life - offering intimate nooks and ever-changing perspectives.
The interior is defined by OAKCENT's oak flooring from the Sand Collection, which enhances the home's open-concept design. Their soft, natural tones enhance the sense of space and create a seamless transition between rooms. The flooring blends effortlessly with the raw concrete surfaces under the staircase and near the fireplace, creating a striking yet balanced contrast.
The ground floor provides a generous living space for everyday use, while the upper level provides an additional retreat for entertaining, leisure or personal projects. Thanks to the natural slope of the land, this level retains direct access to the garden, while opening up panoramic views of the distant countryside and historic village centre. The design of the house is completed by a gabled roof, paying homage to traditional rural architecture while seamlessly blending into the local context.
Thanks to the thoughtful selection of materials and spatial design, House above the pond is a testament to how modern architecture and materials can create the beauty of natural living.
