Am Leineufer

Description

The single-family-passive-house was built in 2008 on a former farm parcel with ancient tree population located right beside a nature preserve nearby the Leine.

Decisive for the passive-house's blueprint was the wunderful view into the landscape, which should be apparent by the most important living areas. These open from north- to south-west - for a orientation according to energetic aspects not optimal - even if the construction as a passive-house was decided a priori. Based on the reserved colouration of its brickwork, the house integrates discreetly into countryside. The residences original form is underlined in its clarity through the continuation of the outside brickwork in the entrance area. Furthermore, the randomly seeming style of arranging and sizing windows creates tension. Brickwork and facade cladding get not into competition based on the decent elegance of the grey overlend-bricks.
