In a private garden with simple forms, concrete elements are dominant, harmonizing with the surrounding greenery and creating gentle contrasts. The space has been carefully divided into several zones, each serving specific functions:
A birch grove enriched with functional utility area. An outdoor lounge area creating a pleasant atmosphere for relaxation and gatherings. A space for children separated by a wooden structure, as well as a designated area for a bonfire. The zones have been defined by hedgerows, providing privacy and a unique character.
A large, partially covered terrace has become a harmonious extension of the indoor space, ensuring an ideal connection between the interior and exterior. The introduction of greenery on the terrace allows the surrounding nature to blend with the interior, creating a beautiful connection between the home and the natural environment.
