A massive timber house, crafted entirely from Cross-Laminated Timber plates. This project uniquely integrates second-hand building elements (doors, windows, etc), with the design thoughtfully adapted to accommodate each discovered piece. The outcome highlights the charm and flexibility of repurposed materials in a truly singular residential space.
