    KOLONIHAVEN

I have tried to design a house that represents "Home" the way a child would draw it. My aim was to design a real Kolonihavehus with a bit of the fantasy and the exotic that these small houses symbolize.
The house is to be understood as a place with a roof where one can seek cover.
There is a fireplace, a bed, a table and a walled-in garden. In the garden is a little shed with wood for the fireplace.
It is important for architects to design something people feel good living in.
