renovation of a cottage in modest hilly woods.
wish:
– an attractive open retreat/shelter for 4 to 6 walkers/ hunters/ bikers/ minimalist tourists.
result:
– 75 m2 interior .. 1 large social/meeting room, open kitchen, 1 bathroom, reserve for sauna, 2 beds on ground floor, 4-6 beds on upper floor/ gallery
– inside fire place
– 15 m2 hard surfaces .. wooden south terrace
– apart from 2-bed-space and sauna reserve, all spaces are permanently* open, divided only via textil “partitions”
* 2-bed-room on groundfloor can serve as second meeting / eating place
– non permanent occupation -> inside insulation was chosen for quickly heatable space (2-4 hours), main heating via wood, backup heating electricity
– materials .. reed on inside insulation, clay finish; reed+clay(+oil) dont require any other protecion layers, existing walls – bricks
– costs estimation .. 35 000 eu
planing: 2018/02 – 2018/08
location: Myjavská Pahorkatina, West Slovakia
