The allotment garden settlement “Greifenstein” next to a dead arm of the Danube River has a special charm. The first residents in the 1920s to 60s were very creative when building their bathing huts themselves. Since it is a flood area, all houses must be built on pillars. All of them were made of wood and the size was reduced to the essentials. Visitors are reminded of Peter Pan’s Neverland or beach huts on the California coast.

The apartment’s existing construction is typical of an ancient building, with high ceilings, an angled floor plan, and a very confused, scattered spatial layout.

The family house on the edge of the forest is a contemporary citation of the cottage aesthetic found in the area around Štěchovice. The small, pitorexic building of vertical form is located on a steep slope, casually set into the terrain so that human intervention in the site is hardly noticeable.
