House M is located in a typical Slovenian landscape, which is why its design derives from standard architectural elements, the most dominant of these being the gable roof. The house is made out of three elongated volumes with symmetrical gable roofs, which are set in a way that creates a dynamic ground floor organization. It accommodates and serves the needs of the modern family and provides the highest level of comfort and quality living.
The uniform facade and the form of the roof emphasize the dynamics of the three volumes, especially given the combination of dark and light color shades and the use of the materials themselves – pattern of wood panels and fiber-cement panels. Dark-light contrast facade complements the neighboring birch groves and its surrounding landscape. The final result presents a dream house for the investor and a quality addition to the Slovenian residential topography as well.
INTERIOR
One-family villa M is composed out of three elongated elements that shape dynamic floor plans. All three volumes are connected together in the level of the ground floor and form a larger central area where the family spends most of it's time – kitchen and the dining room. The whole ground floor is open and light, where the carefully placed large glass surfaces lead to to the outdoor terrace, overlooking the surrounding meadows, hills and forests. Upper floor of the middle volume provides sleeping rooms for the children with private bathroom and walk-in closets.
Color contrast of the interior is not as strong as the exterior's – prevailing are the natural shades and patterns of wood and white wall surfaces. Dominant element object is the carefully designed central staircase that also represents the heart of the building.
