sigurd larsen and haas construct three elevated timber houses with expansive skylights
Briefly

Architect Sigurd Larsen, in collaboration with Haas Fertigbau, has designed three sustainable timber houses: The Urban House, The Panorama House, and The Landscape House. Each house emphasizes modern architecture, sustainable construction, and adaptable spaces tailored for urban and natural environments. The use of timber promotes energy efficiency and reduces CO₂ emissions, while models like The Urban House maximize light and privacy. The Landscape House connects with nature through large windows, and The Panorama House adapts to different terrains, focusing on ventilation and views, highlighting a commitment to environmentally conscious design principles.
The Urban House, featuring a saw-tooth roof and skylights, maximizes natural light while maintaining privacy and connections to greenery, enhancing the communal living experience.
Each house by Sigurd Larsen utilizes timber as a primary material, promoting sustainability and energy efficiency through modern construction methods and an environmentally friendly focus.
The Landscape House fosters a connection to nature with floor-to-ceiling windows and a layout that encourages indoor-outdoor transitions, maximizing light and natural views.
The Panorama House is adaptable to varied terrains, designed to enhance ventilation and daylight exposure while providing stunning panoramic views, integrating seamlessly with its environment.
