The Round House: The life in a house has different qualities based on the context. In urban settings, houses serve as personal retreats, offering rest, comfort, and privacy after a day's work. In contrast, second homes and weekend houses often function as communal spaces, bringing together families, couples, and friends for short-term stays. The Round responds to this type of life in which the borders of privacy, individuality, and community blend within a relatively small footprint. Each bedroom is a private enclave with direct outdoor access. The Round exploits the diversity of views of the site to its maximum. Each window is a unique frame of the ever-changing natural landscape of the site. The round roof is the unifying agent that ties the rooms back together again.
