Rural household building complex ⌂ Žumberak
On a green plateau of Žumberak, a complex of prefabricated bungalows together forms a harmonious rural estate. Several buildings with a dark anthracite facade and gable roofs are linked by gravel paths and beautifully set into the surrounding wooded hills and valley. The single-storey design means comfortable living on one level and a peaceful setting far from the bustle of the city, and the aerial view captures how the whole estate blends into the natural landscape. Each building is built with dry prefabricated technology from ready-made elements, so construction runs quickly and throughout the year, regardless of the weather. The fully insulated timber structure is energy-efficient and engineered to European standards for the location, resistant to earthquakes, fire, snow and wind and durable enough to last for generations. The whole undertaking shows how even a larger complex can be built thoughtfully, to a high standard and in harmony with its surroundings.
