Both spaces close the private part of the garden. The investors' wish was a simple house with a flat roof, but the local plan imposed sloping roofs. Therefore, from the street side, the house has a gable roof, and from the garden side a flat roof, which ultimately created a non-standard, characteristic house shape. Investors wanted a house reacting to the sun, which is why we used the motif of the quadrant - an old device used to determine the position of the stars. We have designed a terrace that reacts to the sun and follows it, thus residents sit in its shade and pleasant airing and - depending on the season - it regulates the amount of sunlight in the spaces it adjoins - gives the desired shadow in the summer (has its own blinds) and in winter allows for more sunlight inside.
Furthermore, in good weather and also in the evening, when the house is open, it can be an extension of the daytime area or SPA. The drive system is fully automated, but manual control is also possible, depending on the needs. Movement of the terrace has been programmed to be in constant motion during the day, so that natural grass grows underneath.
