Austrian Firm LP Architektur recently revealed their newly design house, the EFH Groth house, located in Lofer, Austria, that stands on the steep mountain slopes. The design itself mimics the slope of the mountains which makes it much more unique and attractive.
The house has an asymmetrical roof to the slope of the hill. LP Architektur named this house as the "EFH Groth House" which literally looks like it's sliding down a hill. The firm intentionally designed the house with three levels but across the slope. This means that instead of having a usual house storey in a vertical direction from the ground level, they have it in a diagonal one.
From the outside view of the house, any visitor or guest will be astonished as to how the levelling of the house is beautifully made. The firm disguised the levels of the house by the austere black timer cladding which comes with a roofline that mimics the gradient of the slope.
The description stated that the newly built EFH Groth house is packed with simplicity and a grand overview of the entire place, which is surrounded by vast mountains. The big windows allow the residents, guests or visitors to see the majestic view of the hills and the vast mountains. During the night, they can be closed with large sliding timber shutters.
In terms of its interior, the black accents can be seen again on its stairs, fireplace and furniture. The color was intended to contrast the light color of the wood. Through this way, they created a bold and monochromatic palette out from these two contrasting colors that beautify the entire house.
The location of the EFH Groth house is really great especially during vacation as there would be a lot of tourists who will visit the place to ski and see the whole scenery of the mountains during the summer. Lofer is famous for this. The house will be another attraction which people could check out and consider as an inspiration to their future homes in the Austrian mountain slopes.
