The Long Brick House by Földes & Co. Architects
A home in which a classic, minimalist aesthetic works around intellectual values, we present a look
A home in which a classic, minimalist aesthetic works around intellectual values, we present a look at the Long Brick House completed by Földes & Co. Architects in 2013. Nestled in the side of the Big-Proud Peak in Pilisborosjeno, Hungary, this home was designed for a couple not only looking to retire from the hustle-and-bustle of Budapest, but also to support their large library of books. While its exterior features a canopy of trees for shade and a spacious terrace with sunset views of the rolling hills, its interior offers 17 meters of books space, a sauna, 50-centimenter-thick brick walls created to retain heat, and an empty, well-ventilated attic that behaves as a “buffer zone” that optimizes the inner climate.
