Located in the city's Homeruskwartier Oost district, on the western side of the centre, the modest dwelling features a distorted-rectangle footprint and a butterfly-shaped roof
The budget was small but the house still has a distinct identity, thanks to its unusual form and the corrugated aluminium sheeting that clads the façade
The cladding shimmers in the light
The 72sq m timber-lined interior makes for a warm and generous, one-bed open-plan space, which offers room for a guest bed when needed
A white internal cluster includes the bathroom and storage space (cloakroom cupboard, cabinets, wardrobe and a fold-out guest bed)
The same timber that clads the interior is used for the kitchen cabinets, ensuring a paired-back look that maximises the sense of space
