The house was erected on remains of an existing pigsty so that the most valuable land was left untouched. The house is conceived as a deformed tube and is constructed with prefabricated elements of massive wood in both floor, walls and roof. The entire building is clad with fibre cement boards.

 

2013 an extension with 2 bedrooms for the children and an additional living room was completed.
