I would choose to vacation in an isolated countryside just for peace, quiet and tranquility. Therefore, architect Alexander Diem specially designed wooden imitation Chinese-style window lattice for a lakeside villa in the Austrian countryside. Partitions ensure the privacy of residents.
The main building of the entire villa is almost designed with privacy as the starting point. The partitions surrounding the exterior wall of the villa can be opened or closed according to the needs of the residents, which not only ensures privacy, but also effectively blocks sunlight. The carved patterns on the partitions symbolize food and harvest. As the sunlight shifts, the light and shadow scattered on the floor intersect. The porch between the interior and the partitions becomes the best place to appreciate the play of light and shadow.
The indoor living room has a ceiling height of 5.6 meters, which makes it very open both visually and spatially. Diem explained how he arranged the transition between public and private spaces, from the outermost fences, gardens, wooden partitions, and exterior walls, to the interior spaces of living rooms and personal rooms. The closer you go inside, the closer you get to private spaces. space. And under this layer of protection from the outside to the inside, residents should really be able to escape from the distractions of the outside world and enjoy the most private living space without any scruples!
