Built in 2014, the 157.0-square-foot property on the outskirts of Prague, impressed by its architectural elegance combined with modern features.
A modern family home versatile as a chameleon
The house consists of six volumes bound in a different building orientation that specifically target each open to the natural environment "forest." The whole body as the chameleon is designed for life in the trees. Immersed in nature, surrounded by a garden with a forest-like atmosphere, the Chameleon home exudes peace and security. Despite its monolithic design language and the strict geometry of the building seems to be driven in a game of transparency and consistency to the light
