This project has been designed by Christian Ambos, Michael Anhammer and Harald Höller, part of the team at the architectural firm Franz&Sue, and it is located in Austria. It covers an area of 215 square meters and was completed in 2016.

In the 1930s, few people could afford a basement, let alone a garage, so they built their own sheds to store wood, raise rabbits, or boil clothes. In recent decades, these structures have lost their original purpose and many are falling apart. When turned into small and cozy “hiding places,” however, they become magical and affordable retreats for families and their guests.

The walls were covered with varnished gray fir panels, and a raised section in the back was upholstered so that the attic could also be used as a guest room. An elegant bronze trapdoor closes this enchanted place, from where you can watch the squirrels play in the treetops and enjoy the wonderful surrounding natural landscape from the comfort of the interior.

The ground floor is used to store garden tools, the lawnmower, and fruit boxes, while the upper floor is cozy and very comfortable.

The spotlights that illuminate it at night create a warm atmosphere, even in the cold of winter.

The attic is ventilated through an existing window and small vents installed on the sides.
