Private house
Timber Sky
Among the trees, away from the rhythm of the city, the architecture of Timber Sky becomes a natural extension of the countryside landscape. Expressive pitched roofs, warm wooden textures, and large areas of glazing form the image of a contemporary house in which traditional architectural motifs get a new reading.

Overview
The project is based on working with geometry and the multi-level nature of space. Combining several volumes with pitched roofs made it possible to create an interesting spatial structure in which changes of height, open areas, and transitions between rooms become part of the architectural scenario. These solutions continue in the interior, which we developed in parallel with the architecture of the house.
Solution
Natural light plays a special role. Tall windows that echo the geometry of the gables open up views of the surrounding greenery and fill the interior with daylight. Covered terraces create a smooth transition between the house and the plot, letting residents stay closer to nature in any weather. The material palette is built on the contrast of light wood, restrained facade surfaces, and a dark roof. Laconic black frames emphasize the geometry of the glazing, while wooden finishing of the gables and eaves adds warmth and a natural feel to the architecture. Timber Sky is an example of an integrated approach in which architecture and interior were developed as a single system. As a result, the external form of the house not only shapes its character but also directly affects the quality, atmosphere, and variety of the interior space.
