The wonderful message of black architecture – it appears solid, self-concentrated and (from a certain perspective) causes the older structures to become less prominent to the observer, almost disappearing. The raised house box distances itself from the old structure. The architect wanted to break with the location and its standard history, he wanted to renew the shape and structure in a provoking way. The perception of this strange abstract scene, rising ex nihilo, also invites observers to escape into their own imagination. Even though the house is located in an extroverted location, it gives the impression of independent solidity. An oversized window ensures a clear view from the outside to the inside and vice versa. On the inside, a fiction and nonfiction library was set up, in competition with the natural tales found outside.
