he urban structure of Nový Vojířov consists of large enclosed farmyards and long barns. Their
orientation is determined by the morphology of the terrain and by their relationship to the village
square with its pond and church.
It was important to place the new house correctly within this structure.
The basic form of the house, visually exposed towards the village square, respects the traditional
form of a house: a barn with a gabled roof and gable ends. On the opposite side, facing the slope
and the private garden, the mass of the house opens up into a large glazed area. Two volumes—the
entrance module and the bedroom module—are inserted into the main volume, creating pavilions
that merge with the garden. For this reason, they are built of stone walls and have green roofs.
The house is made of concrete. The structural solution made it possible to create an opening
towards the garden thanks to a deep beam without supports, while the concrete roof structure
eliminated the need for supports within the rooms. The concrete structure is left exposed in the
interior.
The plinth places the living spaces at the level of the garden and is used for parking bicycles and
cars, as well as for wood storage and a utility shed. The only north-facing window is oriented
towards the village square. A roof window on the north-facing roof brings daylight into the kitchen
without the risk of overheating.
Structurally, the house is cast as a three-dimensional concrete structure, including the walls, ceilings
and roof structure.
The main volume is finished with plaster, while the bedroom pavilion facing the garden is clad in
local stone and has a green roof. A heat pump provides both heating and cooling for the house.
A drilled well serves as the water source. Rainwater is collected in retention tanks and used for
garden irrigation. A smart electrical control system manages the building technologies and the
shading devices to improve energy efficiency.
The roof tiles on the southern side were designed to function as photovoltaic tiles.
