It is a house with a simple, modern shape that constantly interacts with its users and surroundings.
We have planned several zones that allow everyone to find their place and privacy. A bright living room connected to the kitchenette. A separate second room intended for a bedroom, a place for work or rest. Additionally, a mezzanine with a desk. Thanks to the organic materials used, ECHO and its inhabitants can easily blend in with nature.
