Scandinavian based international architecture studio Lars Gitz Architects
imagined and built a contemporary home overlooking the sea. Uniquely
designed to serve the owners peace and comfort, this impressive villa by
the sea in Aalsgaarde, Denmark, rests in the middle of a green lawn.
Capturing panoramas of the sparkling water from behind glass walls, the
residence known as Villa From spreads over 390 square
meters. A taller volume with two floors was designed to become a
seamless space from where the panoramic view can be enjoyed whether
you’re working in the open office space or taking a long, well-deserved
bath. In all the wings of the house, the internal organization of spaces
proves an honest opening towards the surroundings and a visual
communication between different spaces.
In
permanent contact with the landscape, the modern villa by the sea was
planned both as a comfortable residence, and as an architectural jewel. A
simple white sequence of stairs constructs an intriguing appearance in
collaboration with the first level’s cantilevering floor. The play of
volumes and voids and clean design lines backed up by extensive use of
glass allowed the architects to add a few striking details like the
water feature outdoors and glass stair railings inside. The bathroom
makes use of an oversized skylight to flood the interior with natural
light without worrying about privacy. Showcasing an inspiring volumetric
architecture in white, this spacious villa by the sea contrast its
surroundings during the day and becomes a beacon of light at night.
