THE RAMMED EARTH HOUSE: From Traditional to Experimental
The design concept of the building is developed by analyzing the surrounding buildings and the architectural form of early 20th century farm. The traditional form with the pitched roofs and windows expanding from those, is reinterpreted in a new way by experimenting with the rammed earth material. We aimed to use rammed earth material as much as possible in the design and wanted to create a holistic approach by building the house with rammed earth from the ground to the roof. The roof of the structure designed by Oton Jugover inspired us to reflect the raised roof to the design.
