BROKEN HOUSE

The building is located on the outskirts of Katowice, near a forest, on a land deteriorated by 4th category mining
damage, where tectonic faults are a possibility. Hence the connotation of uplifted layers of soil, interwoven with
one another, which was the inspiration for the form of the house. Its structural design comprises rectangular
solids contrasting with the ribbon – like structure, which winds around them after it emerges from the ground.
It is the leitmotif of the building, combining a variety of functions: starting with the swimming pool to the living
room with a fireplace and then to the bedroom upstairs.
