Villa Hermina

The building is situated on a sloping terrain on the outskirts of Cernín, taking the same slope into its internals for floors. The interior layout is based on alternating straight and sloping floor surfaces that create the overall spiralling character of the interior and define the building's external appearance. However, the use of the sloping floor on the ground floor is not purposeless: it is there on request of the investor, to accomodate movie projections as a small movie theatre. Windows and other openings are placed with respect of the external façade; each of the walls only has one opening. For thermal and water insulation, a polyurethane spray with pink coat is used, meant as a credit to the architects' favourite building: 'Versuchsanstalt fur Wasserbau und Schiffbau' by Ludwig Leo.
