LAB #4(43) 2008

LAB project _

however strange they might seem. This is one of the advantages of the building location – no roads, highways or car exhausts. Instead of stairs, that are well-represented in the house itself, there is a ramp leading to the entrance door. Besides spacious hall, first floor contains parents’ bedroom, bathroom and study. On the second floor there is a recreation room, living room, kitchen and dining room. Interior, by the way is worth mentioning separately: the cleanliness of white colors would not be unusual if the light, reflected from the walls, was not blended with bright spots: the red carpet on the stairs is almost Cannes-style, baroque plum-colored walls just require gold frames on them, and the bathroom is painted orange and lilac. This project seems to be literature-oriented, as it has many details and there should be a separate word to describe each of them. Skewed, oblique, folded, unstable, ugly, senseless, interesting, unu- sual, colorful, mysterious – there are few houses in modern architecture to apply all these epithets to. This is why the house appears in magazines and blogs: however the Everyman could treat the house, it demands and attitude to itself.
