The sublime synthesis of nature and modernity
The peculiarity of “From the Garden House” is that, unlike usual, it is the gray concrete structure that had to adapt to the shapes and inspiration of the existing garden, commissioned in 2009, when the structure had not yet been imagined and designed.
The project was born from the client’s desire to be able to enjoy a garden that was already flourishing when the building was finished and from the need to favor a dialectic between architecture and nature that is constant and oriented towards the harmony of beauty. .
The technical pillars of the intervention
To protect the first floor of the building, which houses the owners’ rooms, it was necessary to design a solution capable of ensuring high levels of thermal insulation and commensurate with the challenge of the harsh Polish winters.
However, the solution adopted also required aesthetic quality and visual harmony with the characteristics of the surrounding garden. Diasen , combining its cork-based thermal finish Diathonite Façade and with the water repellent BKK Eco guaranteed a solution capable of keeping together aesthetics, functionality and protection.
Elasticity
195%
It prevents the formation of cracks, crevices and injuries
Thermal conductivity
λ = 0.086 W/mK
The low diffusivity value indicates a high degree of heat insulation and therefore greater comfort and savings for summer cooling
Crack Bridging Ability
2,5 mm
Ability of the material to resist the propagation of cracks and crevices of the support on which it is applied
