Caseta
by Lichtstad Architecten
Caseta is a timber holiday home on the small Frisian island of De Burd, near Grou, replacing a dilapidated predecessor on the water's edge. Lichtstad Architecten repositioned the house directly between land and water, framing the shifting water levels and reed banks through large glazed façades. Split-level living, cooking and dining areas each open onto a different view, while jetties on every side reinforce the sense of living along the shoreline. The curved roofline and sail-like detailing reference the island's skûtsje sailing tradition.
