XXS - eXtra eXtra Small House
eXtra-eXtra-Small House is located in Krakovo, the very centre of Ljubljana and at the same time in a historical village - once (in the Middle Ages) supplying the nearby monastery with fresh food - today highly protected historical area. The basic dimensions of the new house were already defined by law according to the volume of the pre-existing house.
The task was to integrate all residential functions in an extra small volume and to bring the sunlight to the living spaces in the ground floor through the roof openings with the in-direct sunlight, since the house faces north. The house is an urban holiday-home for a couple living in countryside.
