New rooftop appartment- San Candido, Italy

esker


Esker Haus (esker=stratified geological formation) is a self-contained residential unit placed on top of an existing house from the 1960s. The project is formed by a series of steel and timber frames that deform to recreate the smooth hillsides of the surrounding dolomites. This partly accessible roofscape also determines the spatial character inside- the spaces are enfolded by an angular and dynamic series of planes creating new and ever-changing perspectives and spatial constellations.
