Movable extension of a traditional timber-frame house
The objective set up by the clients – who are journalists – was to create an additional study. The extension of a garage which is integrated within the house was originally envisaged. The typical timber-framed house with a large garden is located in a nature reserve. The clients were inhabiting the ground floor. The intensively used garden was only accessible from the basement via an internal staircase. The tenant in the first floor should not have to move out.
