Grapevine House


Grapevine House 

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Wine Testing Facility

INSPIRATION:
 old grapevine root in form of a digital fabricated scultpure generates the single supporting column of the building and symbolize coevally the main building function: wine testing facility

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The "Grapevine House Concept" is based on a high utilization of the air space above the appropriate plot of land (vineyard) in connection with an irreducible demand on the available plot area. The kind of used design for the supporting column should appear in form of artificial nature, almost emerging as an unifying element between the pending building in the air and the surrounding landscape.
