A fully-open, sandwich-shaped, filled with natural light, three-storey countryside house presents magnificent views over the surrounding countryside and Lake Constance, designed by Austria-based Dietrich | Untertrifaller Architekten. 

Located on a mountain overlooking Bregenz, the private residence encompasses a 210 square-metre space and House D features open floorplans and generous glazing on the facade. The home is stratified into 3 stories, with the Entrée and utilities located on the first floor, guest and children′s rooms on the second, and Master bedroom and an open layout kitchen+dining+living room on the third. 

In order to strengthen the connection to the natural environment, the third floor also boasts a patio which wraps around the entirety of the building. The geometric form of the home, combined with the architect′s decision to construct with concrete and wood, create a powerful building that seems to blend into the surrounding landscape. 

Furthermore, the attention to detail highlights the craftsmanship for which this region of Austria has become famous.
