HG48 House Tjurpannan

Grebbestad, Sweden 2022

House Tjurpannan is a weekend house bordering a magnificent nature reserve, on the west coast of Sweden. The topography is dramatic and the area is wild and weathered. The house keeps a low silhouette and inserts lightly in the landscape, with minimal exploration of the existing terrain.  A wooden structure is raised on plinths, directly anchored in the rock. Glulam posts placed on a regular distance, form room division and module dimensions of the house. The generic plan enhances focus on basic spatial qualities and the uniqueness of the surrounding site. Photography Mikael Olsson.
