student, architectural competition 

Essential and fundamental architectural values brought the thinking deeply into classical antiquity, where the precision and excellence came into existence. Archetype, scale and paradigm.

Taking archetypes themselves as a strong base, allowed us to think from two different points of view. The first works with pure shapes and volumes. The second, psychological, is acting in horizontal way. Connection of archetypes as beads on the thread, where individuality as way of a person goes through. Structure of archetypes might be read also vertically - timelessly – like imaginary onion slices coating the core of psyche – the essential me.

Articulation justifies its existence in the space between the earth, which is fixed by its material and the sky, whom the roof opens vertically through the skylight. Ground floor at it‘s horizontality conceives as main transitional space between inside and outside, the centre with fireplace as catalyst of traditional family life.
