Nora House by Than & Videgard Hansson Arkitekter
Nora House is designed by Than & Videgard Hansson Arkitekter, this building envelope was defined by the full width, the maximum area and height fitting into the building regulations.
A house organized as a spiraling sequence of four large rooms on four levels. These big spaces without a fixed hierarchy let this house invite the inhabitants to organize their lives following their own preferences.The upper large room constitutes the link to the roof terrace – the biggest social area in the house.Construction is in situ cast concrete.
Facades are rendered in plaster colored dark greyish blue. Protruding window boxes made of oak add a 3-dimensional quality to the facade, thus enhancing the depth and massive character of the interior. All glass panes are fixed, with wooden side vents and doors.
