Kattegat House

Strom Architects has designed Kattegat House, a single-family villa located on the west coast of southern Sweden. There are stunning views, as the site slopes gently towards the sea and blends in with the surrounding landscape. The studio created a stone wall to define the "habitable" area, which creates a physical boundary and provides privacy. Inside the walls, they terraced the "habitable" areas to create a hierarchy of platforms on which the different functions of the house are placed.The outdoor pool is positioned right inside of the wall in an area completely protected from external views, but also from westerly winds.

On the top plateau, Strom Architects  place a service-building containing entrance, garage and store. The kitchen, dining and living areas are placed at 90 degrees to the terraces with a strong direction towards the sea. On the lower plateau, they place a private bedroom wing and guest wing respectively on either side of the living room. These wings then enclose two courtyards: one for sculpture, and one for outdoor living with external kitchen. All bedrooms, as well as living areas, now have a sea view. 

Finally Strom Architects create a deep facade with fins. These fins create a zone that allows a private terrace outside each bedroom, but they also provide protection from views into the house when viewed obliquely. The set back of the glazing allows the roof overhang to provide solar shading in the summer months. Recessed steel shutters can be closed when the winter storms are their worst. 

The design of Kattegat House is built with a concrete frame, with walls and fins made of bricks by Petersen Kolumba. The language of concrete and brick shows "the honesty of the building", while providing a very strong building structure that can withstand the weather well in this exposed place.
