led by agnieskzka gansiniec, belgian-architecture firm D44 created the ‘kite house’. the residence was created to suite whatever landscape it’s placed within; whether it be deep within the mountains, or nestled amongst the swaying seaside reeds. ‘kite house’ is fabricated predominately with polycarbonate, which allows the small interior to be consistently illuminated with natural light. the home is split into two levels. the ground floor contains the kitchen, wood stove, and foyer. above, a small loft provides amble room for a bed or living area, which connects to the environment via a large, hinged sunroof.
