Architecture: Czech Republic, Mimosa Architekti

Czech Republic, mimosa architekti
Architects: mimosa architekti
Location: Bohumilec, Czech Republic
Project Year: 2010
This charming single family residence in the Czech Republic was carefully designed to respect its site and make the most of available solar exposure. Oriented to the east and the west, the home soaks up daylight while utilizing shade devices and recessed windows to prevent overheating in the summer. Designed by Prague-based Mimosa Architekti, the House in Bohumileč uses natural materials and a simple framework to help it fit into its rural setting.
