House by the Lake
by Studio Nauta
Set in the flat Frisian landscape near Oudega, this residence takes the form of two interconnected black timber volumes that sit modestly within their surroundings. A long kitchen block with a fire at each end links the two cabins, framing panoramic views over the lake and acting as the social heart of the home. Inside, pale timber walls, built-in joinery and polished concrete floors create a calm, natural counterpoint to the dark exterior cladding. Large glazed openings draw the surrounding meadows and water directly into the living spaces.
