House L

Winning a competition Stephan Maria Lang provides a home to a young family in a Munich suburban residential area.

Coming from the street the L-shaped Bauhaus style residence is protected by a seven meter high white wall.

A copper clad garage in front forms a closed in protected driveway.

Only one double hight glas opening marks the entry to the very private living space and garden. A spatial continuum connected to nature by large sliding doors.

A rain protected veranda adjacent to the kitchen with view towards a long work swimming pool is the main center of family life.

The parent- and children sleeping area is on the second floor,  guest room, facility rooms and wine cellar are in the basement.

Natural materials reduced to only natural oiled oak and dark l limestone in contrast to white plastered walls gives the house the subtle atmosphere of a classic Bauhaus villa

An efficiently planned energy concept, with concrete core cooling-heating, sun collectors, thermal heat pump and controlled air ventilation, meets the standards of a German low-energy house.
