House and Office by DV Architekten

DV Architekten builded their studio-home in a plot with a big tree and decided to capture the shadows of the tree in the building facade, like a tattoo.

The envelope of the building is made of translucent plastic panel reinforced with fiberglass “PRFV” of 5 mm thick. The graphics of the shadows have been designed from photos of the existing tree. The printed pattern is mounted on the panel, fixed and protected applying several layers of resin, so the final finish is uniforms and resistant.

What a beautiful house and I love the ways the trees cast shadows on it.
