Vanishing Point
Annotation
The building of a watch house situated in close vicinity of a train track, intended for a family with 2 children, is located south of Nižná Myšľa train station, where the land is parallel to a double train track. Futurist high-speed trains and the visual-perspective character of the rails seemingly converging in the distance became the inspiration for the atypical shape. The house stands on a triangular floor plan, the shape resulting from it being connected to a reversely oriented triangle of identical dimensions, thus forming organic curves. The design works with space and creates an illusion of matter, which gains and loses volume in various parts of the structure, which deepens the possibility to use both the interior and exterior of the house.
