The recreational family houses near Bratislava, designed by Chybik + Kristof Associated Architects, offer a possibility of permanent settlement. The project aims to create a residential area of high quality with direct contact with water surface. Furthermore, a considerable number of houses are located in the area of an ancient riparian forest in the riverbed of the Danube. The project’s main motto is to set up a space for a life in contact with nature, a life with a link to the original fauna and flora. More images and architects’ description after the break.

The relatively small parcels are visually interconnected by rich vegetation and a variety of high trees. The respective estates are separated from one another only by a low wall which defines clearly the boundary, but without spoiling the impression of the wilderness. The individual houses can be then seen as clear spots in the greenness. They are designed to be a place for living in the middle of the nature, literally on the boundary between the water surface and the park.
