HOLIDAY RESIDENCE LEVY

ARCHITECT(URAL OFFICE):
Auke Komter

BUILDING TYPE:
Freestanding houses

This sculpturally designed holiday house stands on the top of a ridge of dunes. As though this were not high enough, the living room is placed not on the ground floor but upstairs, with the bedrooms downstairs. Hence the most significant feature of this open living space is the view out, which as both side walls are virtually blank is as if through a telescope, an effect strengthened by one side wall being curved. The view from the upstairs terrace along the other side wall has an equally definite orientation due to the wind shields.
