44 m2 extra - ett förslag på nytt fritidshus
My Finnish grandfather had a passion for architecture, eventhough he wasn?t an architect. In the end of the 1950s he builta wooden summerhouse on a lot outside of a small villagecalled Lempäälä, close to the city of Tampere. Today the lotbelongs to my mother. Every time I visit our summerhouse, itmakes me want to do as my grandfather did ? to build a smallhouse next to it.My project is a proposal for a wooden house on mymothers lot. Since the buildings on the lot do not have all thefundamental needs they would require for longer stays, it wasimportant to include these in my proposal.My proposal for a new wooden building has an interior of44 m2 and a wooden deck. It works both as a supplementaryand by itself. There is a simplicity to the house just as there isin the other buildings.Some important questions that led me through the wholework was how to find a good location for the new building inrelation to the surroundings, what kind of rooms and functionthe building should have and how to make the buildingcorrespond with the existing buildings. Also, one im portantquestion was how to make it interact with the landscape.My work resulted in a model, a poster and materialsamples of wood to give a better feeling for my proposal.
