In the southern part of Malé Kyšice town on the edge of the Křivoklát woods, there is a residential district originally home to weekend cottages.

The rehabilitation of this villa calls for various dimensions of dreams, both in the enjoyment of the interior and in the contemplation of the panoramic horizon.

For this project client contacted us during a house purchase. It was preowned building constructed not long time ago. But the interior was very basic and didn’t suite the family needs. New owners wanted to create a place where they could display art pieces owned in their collection. Also, a cosy space with natural materials.

This project started from a noble idea of preserving wood and a desire to push the limits of log construction. We bought a land plot with a pile of logs left from an old disassembled house.
