The “Back to the Roots” multi-generation house in Masans offers a possible solution. Situated on a slope, the house combines public and private uses. On the street side is the public zone, which continues the existing old wall with a wall made of regional natural stone and forms the boundary to the private garden side.
A generous spiral staircase leads from the central entrance on the wall directly to the basement with access to the garden and communal areas. The living spaces behind the natural stone wall are constructed from regional larch logs, creating a natural and warm living atmosphere. The communal space in the basement is divided into two areas.
A central element of the concept is the return to the old tradition of fruit cultivation. This not only promotes social interaction within the house, but also in the neighborhood. The multi-generation house “Back to the Roots” combines well thought-out architecture, ecological materials and a community-oriented way of life.
