Timber roof

A big timber roof that rests upon walls that harmonizes with the surrounding landscape, framing the panorama of the Lake of Zurich. These walls continue in the garden, forming retaining walls and defining multiple areas, such as the main garden, the flower garden, the Magnolia garden with a tea house, and the pond area with a yoga temple.A central hall within the building serves as the heart of the house, connecting the living space with panoramic views on the upper floor to the entrance level.
