Haus Seeblick
A house of two volumes, stepped toward the water. From the road it is a wall; from the terrace, a plane of light.

Notes
The lower storey is a plinth of board-formed concrete, cut into the slope so that the garden remains continuous. The upper storey is a single room of glass and timber, held under a deep cantilevered roof.
Openings are few and exact. A ribbon window toward the lake; a dark oak door from the gravel court; a slit of light over the stair. The rest is wall, and the wall is enough.
Inside, the concrete keeps the cool of the water. Oak underfoot, linen at the glass, a table that runs with the view. Nothing is added that the room does not already hold.
