Evolution design architects implemented an original project of a private house on the lake in Zurich. The project was named Flexhouse (literally - bending house) because of the smoothly writhing shape. Glazed floors are located between the white spiral construction - glass, according to the architect, blurs the visual border between the facade of the house and its interiors. The Flexhouse is located on a small triangular piece of land, sandwiched on both sides by a road and a train station. Architect Stefan Kamenzind says that it was extremely interesting for him to design a residential building in a non-standard location. The building is practically placed on the roadway - in order to increase the distance with the road, the house is raised on a small stepped pedestal - under it is a garage and utility rooms.
The total area of the outwardly compact construction is 173 square meters. mNoise and thermal insulation in the house provide triple glazed facades, control of sunlight - the system of blinds. Despite the external compactness, inside the house is quite spacious, including thanks to the free layout. According to the architect, he wanted to create a dynamic space in which movement would be felt both inside and outside. On the first floor there is a living room, freely flowing into the kitchen area, on the second - sleeping rooms, finally, on a small third tier there are two terraces.
The Swiss bureau Evolution Design has two offices - in Zurich and London. In the portfolio of architects - several sports centers, office and catering system for Google (Dublin, Tel Aviv), private homes in Switzerland and the UK, office space.
