No one ever speaks as magically about a bach as the adults whose childhoods were spent there. The approach for this bach, designed for close friends, was to
create a building that could blow a child’s mind. The bunkrooms echo spatial economies of sailing ships, while the adjacent hall way forms part of the tricycle-track (a figure eight around the dining table, through the sitting room, past the bunks and back again). Volumes are exaggerated wherever possible: bathrooms draw from camp ground models and mezzanine bed rooms tuck under the roof, requiring you to duck in places. Finally, since there is little more disappointing than a childhood space that perceptibly shrinks once you’ve grown up, the lounge is cathedral like. The contrast and unexpectedness of this volume is designed to allow the grown ups to feel ike children, dwarfed and momentarily overwhelmed upon entry.
