Residential stage on a slope

New detached house on a slope.

The planner’s idea of building a floating residential building on a few columns was accomplished with the aid of large glulam panels (KLH). Because the architect was also the building client, it was possible to go to the limits of what is technically possible. The result is a pioneering building based on an inspiring co-operation of planner and engineer.
