Ceramic idyll

Xenia Thea Majerová

Annotation

The residential house with a ceramic studio is part of the colony beneath Ptačí vrch in Vranov nad Dyjí. The building is composed of two separate volumes connected by a glazed walkway. Its concrete facade is complemented by steel-mesh panels that can be opened and moved, which allows resident to regulate the intensity of sunlight. These steel panels do not only fulfil the shading function – they define an entire wall of both the walkway and the studio. In good weather, these panels can be fully opened, and the space becomes accessible to visitors attending ceramics courses.
