Broken House

The building is located on the outskirts of Katowice, on a land deteriorated by 4th category mining damage, where tectonic faults are a possibility. Hence the connotation of uplifted layers of soil, interwoven with one another, which was the inspiration for the form of the house. Its structural design comprises rectangular solids contrasting with the ribbon-like structure, which winds around them after it emerges from the ground.
