Between the lines
Getting the maximum from the minimum of the basic materials – concrete, glass and rebated roof – is possible due to a competent approach to the composition, strict project supervision and a successful dialogue between the customer and the chief architect. The experience of the professionals, responsible for this project, came in handy for this house and its owner.
Alexandr Kovpak, the chief architect of the “Father’s House” emphasizes the importance of concrete in the work: “From a professional point of view, this is an architectural concrete, and, from the creative one, it is a concrete of poetry. The walls are the bridgehead for creativity. Perhaps they will once be adorned by the author's haiku of their inhabitants.”
From non-standard solutions for ordinary inhabitants of suburban areas of Kyiv embodied in this house – it’s the gallery, this connecting line, stretching from the entrance to the shore of the lake. No, even crossing the boundary of the shore, hanging over a water pad. So, walking in the door of the house, you plunge into the Art River, float by its flow, and then suddenly connect with the natural pond. Magical, isn’t it?
