Client: Oliver Marxen Architecture

A new detached house is being built in Soest (NRW) on a garden plot with a gross floor area of approx. 100m². The gable roof is used in extension as a roofing for an adjacent terrace, as well as for a canopy at the entrance. Bicycles, storage facilities and pellet storage for the pellet stove will find their place in the adjacent wooden annex.

The main building is constructed in a timber frame with cellulose insulation. The façade consists of a mineral plaster with wooden windows and doors. The energy supply through the pellet stove is supported by an air source heat pump and a solar thermal system, as well as a storage tank. A device for retrofitting a PV system is located on the roof.

The choice of building materials, the reduction of space requirements and the energy concept follow the architect's and the client's wish for an ecological construction method.
