Case Study – Haus Steinegger

  • Basel
  • Nestled within dense greenery, the house designed by the architect couple Steinegger blends into its surroundings thanks to its raw, wooden planked facade. Two open sides offer expansive views of the garden and the surrounding countryside, while the closed, plastered sides provide privacy and protection.
  • This deliberate contrast between openness and enclosure creates space for creativity and intimacy, providing a safe haven - a fine balance between working, living and crafting on the suburban edge of the city of Basel.
