The workspaces and main living room are defined by two volumes. These rooms converge to the north corner of the house, freeing up more spaces in this house. At the entry, the main space of the house is compressed and it releases up towards the landscape. With the fan-shaped plan, this summer house can provide more light, volume, and floor area. While the house second volume is dedicated to the photographer’s studio.
