House H / a' House was built for the architect?s own family. The wooden building is situated in the traditional residential area of Kivistönmäki, close to the children?s schools and grandparents as well as the railway station. The narrowness of the plot and its wedged shape influenced the form of the house and its building location. The open views and orientation determined the fenestration and the passive sun screening. The materials were chosen to appreciate and accommodate the surroundings and satisfy our personal preferences.
