Straw House // Eschenz // Switzerland // Felix Jerusalem
‘The philosophy is to create architecture that is distinct, clear and evident.’, Felix Jerusalem.
The compressed straw house in Eschenz epitomises the experimental approach. The panels that make up the walls and partitions are filled with compacted straw, providing excellent low-cost, environmentally friendly and high-quality insulation. The extirior is additionally clad in translucent panels, which provide a view of the straw panels and give the wedge-shaped structure a futuristic sheen. The house’s simple formal structure focuses attention on the new materials, fulfilling the architect’s intention of seeking out new low-cost building methoda with broad apllications.
The house was completed in December 2005.
