Plus House-Traditional Swedish Barn House Design

Filed under Architecture and Design,House Design at Sep 9th 2010

Located in Tyreso, Sweden, plus House is a pre-fab two-storey house with the generic proportions of a traditional Swedish barn house. Instead of windows positioned like regular “holes” along the wall, entire side is glazed. On the entrance floor both long walls are glazed. On the upper floor the gable ends are glazed. Seen in plan, these two lines of vision straight through the building are perpendicular like a plus sign. This is the first house designed by Claesson Koivisto Rune for pre-fab manufacturer Akitekthus, in their catalog named AH#001.
