sited on a large estate called terra panonica in serbia, belgrade-based architectural practice autori added ‘house 23’ as a hostel and accommodation. the context in which the scheme is sited was part of a large project to give a contemporary meaning and interpretation to the term ‘village estate’.

greenery grows over the façade, giving the grey exterior color and warmth

the hostel itself is set in a large, gabled volume; the geometry of the façade reminiscent of rural buildings, but at the same time, representing a more modern interpretation. a series of mesh panels have been installed to the façade to encourage plants and greenery to take over.

inside, the simple and clean interiors are permeated with light making it an inviting space. the use of a grid is prevalent and can be seen in the furniture, surfaces and pattern throughout. ‘the rest of the house is a collage of our favorite materials used on the entire estate, toned down for a number of personalities who would spend their time in this hostel.’ comments the design team at autori
