Residential
This commission for a lakeside residence in Caputh is unusual in that the existing Dacha, built in the 1950’s for a senior politician in East Germany, could not be altered in its volume or area.
The unique and idyllic site overlooking the Caputh Lake outside of Potsdam has a handful of neighbours and is surrounded by a nature reserve. The sloping site offers privacy through its established garden that focuses the internal and external views towards the lake to the South.

The studio in collaboration with Eckersley O’Callaghan Engineers developed a proposal for a nearly invisible structural glass enclosure as an extension to a grand period property in London. The scheme responds to the client’s desire for complete interaction with the garden throughout the year. Flooded with light, the virtually external room will become the focus for living, dining and entertaining throughout the year.

This project combines a rich mix of spaces inspired by the local vernacular architecture with a modern vocabulary of light and transparency.
The site, a 3,750sqm riverside location with views out towards the sea and a wide expanse of river front on the east, allows uninterrupted views of the water throughout the day. The scheme is composed of a series of open courtyards and internal volumes enveloped by terraced garden spaces which offer a variety of indoor and outdoor living areas to enjoy throughout the year.
