House Zundel

Creating something new and architecturally sophisticated from a down-to-earth existing building that fits harmoniously into the rural surroundings is a particularly beautiful challenge. The three-story old building right next to an unobstructable nature reserve was redesigned and expanded. The new facade made of wooden shingles typical of the Bregenzerwald region also continues on to the roof. With the continuous larch shingle shell that covers the entire building, the two components merge into one harmonious unit.

A generously glazed extension includes the cooking, eating and living areas in a modern, open living style and allows a wonderful view of the lush nature from the terrace and the pool. The originally narrow staircase was replaced by a generously sized staircase that offers lounge areas to rest or read.
