Set on a scenic plot in Koscielisko village, this house is both a creative reinterpretation of the Podhale region's traditional architecture and a tribute to the Tatra Mountains landscape - especially the iconic hiking trail to Giewont Mountain."
"The design metaphorically reflects a mountain hike, shaping not only the surrounding path and garden, but above all, the home's core: a vertical circulation layout that culminates in a spectacular view of Giewont. Published on January 17, 2026"
The house sits on a scenic plot in Koscielisko village at the foothills of the Tatra Mountains. The design reinterprets traditional Podhale architecture while paying tribute to the Tatra landscape and the iconic hiking trail to Giewont Mountain. The overall composition uses a mountain-hike metaphor that shapes the approach, surrounding path, and garden. The interior is organized around a pronounced vertical circulation sequence that guides movement upward. That vertical core culminates in intentionally framed vistas toward Giewont, making the mountain view the focal point of the residence. Materials and proportions echo regional building traditions while allowing contemporary spatial dynamics.
