The site is located on the south western coast of Sweden in an old agricultural area gently sloping down towards the Kattegatt Sea (part of the Atlantic Ocean). In the midst of this vast and open cultivated landscape the plot lies in contrast to its surroundings as it is planted with many different trees and flowering bushes, lending it the character of a small botanic garden.
The big trees stand close together and the sun is filtered through a roof like foliage that covers most of the parcel. Adding to the idyllic setting, there is also a little brook meandering through the garden. As the trees and plants also function as a shield from the strong winds, we decided that the house had to be carefully inserted between the tree trunks.
