House in Pribylovo

This house is located in the Pribylovo village, situated on the inner Vyborg gulf shore, on a regular flat site facing the sea in the North and touching the water edge. Due to local law and the site restrictions, the house had to be built in the back of the plot, on a rather small area.

Inspiration for observing the sea, along with the site restrictions, formed a compact, three-leveled house.

The ground floor is divided into an entrance and facility zone, along with the stair and a wide living / dining / kitchen zone, which has a completely transparent wall to the sea and a future outdoor terrace. On the first floor are four bedrooms (for each member of the family), while the whole second floor benefits from a large window to the sea. The ground floor has regular timber vertical walls, sheathed with raw pine planks, while the first and second floors are covered by a folded metal roof with Velux windows.

The only exception is the large northern wall, facing the sea and bearing three openings – one full width panoramic glass wall with shutters on the ground floor, a small opening for the master bedroom and the large studio window that, especially in the evening, becomes an additional seamark, and flags the house in the village panorama.
