Features house design in Stuttgart allowed architects UNStudio to glaze the four corners of the volume element and to remove all of the interior pillars, obscuring the view.
A three-storey private house with an area of 618 sq. m with a monolithic concrete frame stands on a green hillside in the vicinity of the old terraced vineyard. The architectonics of the construction (the curve of the roof, plastic facades) follows the shape of the natural hill on which the plantation.
At the house of a kind design. All floor decks have different configuration. The roof and ceiling are based on only four elements – the Elevator shaft, one internal and two external columns. Thus, the extra vertical supports that prevent holistic perception of the beautiful panorama, disappeared from the interior. In addition, the authors of the project decided to glaze all the angular volume elements to solar light deeply penetrates into the interior. Connects all floors of concrete stairs that spiraled as large-scale sculpture.

Through the use of sliding transparent panels space the dining room can be as close as possible to the environment, combining it with the terrace and pool area. The furniture is designed according to the drawings of the head of UNStudio Ben van Berkel.
On the first floor of the planned guest apartment, on the second – living room, kitchen and dining room, and the third bedroom of the owners house, bathroom, fitness room and Spa area.
