Architecture that creates space for quality of life

 

There are residential buildings that function. And there is architecture that you experience and feel. The terraced house at Pergolastrasse 24b in Schmitten FR clearly belongs to the second category. 

Already the access to the property makes it clear that a ordinary living concept has not been implemented here. The spacious, light-flooded access area with its high, glazed canopies, the striking arch constructions and the powerful masonry surfaces have the charm of Milan's shopping arcades. Steel, concrete, glass and stone characterize the building style and give the complex an independent, timeless identity. The lush vegetation provides a successful contrast with a Mediterranean flair. 

The living area lives particularly from the interplay between architecture, light and garden. The large openings connect the interior with the protected exterior area, while the fireplace gives the room a quiet center. Here, a sophisticated living atmosphere is created, which at the same time appears open and sheltered. 

A special value lies in the west-facing garden. The spacious hedges and shrubs create different retreats and a remarkable privacy. Seating areas in sun and shade make the outdoor space a natural extension of the house. 

The other rooms also follow the basic idea of the house. Functional, clear and pleasantly unexcited. Bedrooms and work areas benefit from large window areas and direct references to the small balconies and outdoor areas. The kitchen is deliberately designed in a straightforward manner and fits seamlessly into the overall architectural concept. 

The terraced house is therefore aimed less at people who are looking for a ordinary new building aesthetic, but at buyers with a sense of design, materiality and spatial quality. The property has a design independence that pleasantly sets it apart from many conventional residential buildings. 

Those who live here do not simply buy living space. You decide on a house with character, light, peace and quiet, as well as architecture that still has something to tell after years. It's living with attitude and style.
