It is a stunning modern house situated close to the sea. With a great view of this kind of direction, the house is perfect as a holiday house to provide an enjoyable place to relax for a family. The house building is also broken up while it folds out towards the horizon to relate to the existing buildings’ close by.

From the outside, this house offers clear lines that come from the arrangement of the wooden boards for the house structure. Inside, the same wooden materials are also used and dominating the surface of the wall and floor. The roof is flat and overgrown with grass, allowing the residents to enjoy the view more clearly right from above the house.
