We tell the story of POLES as a society and their talent for finding new opportunities, continuous creation, not giving up in extremely difficult and even seemingly hopeless situations, through their ability to create a community from the bottom up – solidarity around ideas.

Working with very knowledgeable and imaginative clients who were very aware of their needs gave us the impetus to design a boredom-breaking house. It has influenced what kind of associations this building can evoke. Looking at it, we feel the gentle atmosphere of a 1950s California villa.

reconstruction of a terraced house
Project awarded with the first prize in BrickAward 2019 competition in the „feeling at home” category, nominated in the category of single-family houses and nominated for the international Archdaily „Building of the year 19” prize and nominated for President of Warsaw Architecture Prize in the category of housing.

With this project being located in such a prominent area of the town, we want to signal that the whole centre of Otwock is changing and progressing. In a subversive yet subtle way, we were inspired by the ‘Świdermajer’ style ­­- we designed the building’s balconies to be the openwork porches, where the residents would be able to relax after work or observe the changing surroundings through the screen.

We came up with a concept of connecting the new building by a uniform plane of its wall to the existing manor house. The house kind of resembles a signpost. What we see first is the wall and then the house emerges. At the same time, such a barrier is the perfect excuse to create a quiet and intimate garden in the inner area of the plot.

The concept is a follow-up to typical japanese street food bars. There is also some place for the presentation of japanese products. Inspired by the unique character of cities and bamboo forests, the area was arranged with vertical pipes, creating abstract impression.
