Family house in Siófok

The planned building is situated in Siófok, the largest settlement in the Balaton region, just a 10-minute walk from the lake. We designed and constructed this family house within a vibrant architectural environment, with its layout greatly influenced by the specific shape of the plot (trapezoid shape). Our aim was to create well-utilized spaces despite the limited floor area, leading us to opt for a two-storey design where the building mass on the ground floor and upper floor is not continuous. This playfulness, including features like a green roof and cantilevers, was intended to soften the overall mass of the building.

The exterior boasts a modern aesthetic, accentuated by the gray color of the house, which is complemented by natural wood slats. While the ground floor primarily serves as a communal meeting point for family and friends, the upper floor provides a retreat, with rooms situated there. Large glass sliders facilitate a seamless connection between the indoors and outdoors, from the living room and kitchen to the terraces and garden, which are also connected on the same level.
