Residential Houses in Pinewood
A plot of land on the outskirts of Vilnius occupied by tall old pine trees and surrounded by scarce villa type residential buildings. The newly built development is arranged of three two-floor villas each made of two 80 m.sq apartment type semidetached houses surrounded by natural forest greenery. There are no fences, only hedge rows provide some essential separation. Even the concrete driveway is reduced to bare minimum with cars parked on strengthened lawn surface.

All the houses are situated amongst the trees. Natural wood façade cladding is extended upwards and enclose private roof terraces, accessed through rectangular glass box attics, which also become natural light wells for the interior staircases.

Families organize their activities on three levels:
1) fully glassed living space on the ground floor extending naturally into the surrounding forest;
2) Villa Savoye type panoramic window framed bedroom floor;
3) terrace on the roof amongst the crowns of evergreen pine trees;
The appearance of façade surfaces differs in terms of light and view angle and has soft merging boundaries.
