Text description provided by the architects. The house is built in Klaipėda by the Baltic Sea. The architectural idea of the house was inspired by the area itself, which is a former dune, currently overgrown with a forest, which base is pines.
Therefore, the aim was to create a facade that is somewhat close to pine bark, so that the walls and roof of the building like scales resemble the bark of a pine.
The shape of the house is a distant hint reminiscent of gabled fishermen's homes, which in the old days were decorated with details of carved horses.
Therefore, when replicating the fisherman's house, instead of those horses, a huge steel downspout protrudes into the facade, which is interpreted as a modern detail of nowadays, conveying the mood and allusion to seagull wings.
