In this project, there is a boat house designed with a double function. In summer, it is used as an entertainment space for outdoor entertaining and lakeside activities. In winter, it becomes storage for boars and summertime recreation equipment.

The design of this boat house is made by specific requirements as its structure is set within the flood plain of the lake. It is rebuilt within the previously existing dilapidated structure and supported by concrete foundation walls.
