Renovation One

About the winning project

The house’s material palette is a mix of rammed earth, Weathertex, polished concrete, Cemintel and Russian birch cladding seamlessly connected. The sweeping curve facing north starts on the eastern side, capturing the morning sun and completes its formation to the west. The northern façade is the soul of the house with the curved rammed earth walls and internal fireplace. The finishes are highly refined. Intricate tile work, well-crafted plaster, and the complete integration of the curved surfaces assure a rich experience for the residents. The Curved House hosts a variety of sustainable strategies, including an array of solar panels, hydronic in-floor heating, thermally broken windows, abundant natural daylighting and views to the surrounding landscape from almost every room.
