Turato Architects has built an angular white house, informed by the work of a four artists including David Hockey and Richard Serra, on the island of Krk, Croatia.

Located in Brzac, Bedrock House comprises two buildings embedded into a fold in the limestone hillside, which Turato Architects linked with exaggerated walls and misaligned overhanging roofs.
The layout divides the house into "private and public" zones, while prioritising views out to the Adriatic sea and complementing the topography of the hillside.

"Bedrock House was built on artist Richard Serra's work Shift and numerous drawings by the painter Oton Gliha, as well as the motifs of David Hockney and the principles of the architect Pierre Koenig" explained the Croatian architecture studio. "The house also absorbs the natural context into which it is placed: the Mediterranean landscape, the topography of the ground, the unobstructed vista of the sea, and employs them as generators of a specific architecture."

The "public" volume, located on east side of the plot, has a large open-plan living and dining area that opens out onto a spacious patio and swimming pool.
Meanwhile two ensuite bedrooms occupy the more private building on the west, which has been slightly elevated and angled away from the poolside.

Both bedrooms have their own entrance on the north facing facade, which is windowless and designed to blend in with the neighbouring woods.

Bedrock House is mad...
