The location is bordered by the adjacent own yard in the north and agricultural fields south. The house was accordingly designed as a bungalow which is the angle from yard and the open landscape turns out well. As a highly visible element of the polygonal towers above the fireplace running single-storey building. From the beginning, the wall surfaces should be carried out internally and externally in Sichbeton. With the simultaneous desire for cost minimization is offered as a single-run structure.
