L House, Poland by Moomoo Architects

Polish architecture practice moomoo have designed a house that is entirely clad in a plastic insulating material normally used for roofing. It is the first house that the elevation has been made entirely of a plastic insulating material namely – Thermopian. This plastic has good thermal, acoustic and insulating properties. It can be acquired in many different colours and looks very cool.

We were intent on the house form to relate to the proportions of a Polish house but at the same time we wanted it to be simple and redefined. One distinctive leaning wall is a result of a compromise between a simple shape and the local law, which requires building in line with plot borders.

Surely not so eco-friendly?
