Dieser quadratische Bungalow ist ein K-MÄLEON Hybridhaus K-L und hat die Außenmaße 13 x 13 Meter. Wie gewohnt wurden Grundriss und Gestaltung vollkommen individuell vorgenommen. Durch das Atrium wird jeder Quadratmeter des innovativen Einfamilienhauses mit Licht durchflutet. Die quadratische Grundform der Glas-Dachspitze ermöglicht eine zu allen Seiten gleichmäßige Lichtverteilung. Die Besonderheiten bei diesem Projekt sind die Glasfassade auf drei Hausseiten, die Gaube, der große Dachüberstand und die Stringenz bei der Materialauswahl.

Given the scale and unique shape of the space, several key pieces were custom-designed and manufactured. The coffee table, created from scratch in collaboration with a trusted Portuguese manufacturer, consists of three fluid-form tables in bronze finish—two with bronze mirror tops and one with a pre-selected pink and white marble top. All tables feature hammered bronze edging, perfectly positioned in the centre of the large curved sofa, with custom lighting suspended above. Another bespoke element is the rug, also produced in Portugal. Its design was tailored to the room’s unusual shape, incorporating the coral-pink tones of the space and echoing the ceiling’s unique stepped detail. This thoughtful, fully custom approach ensures each piece complements the architecture while enhancing the room’s overall cohesion and elegance.

These custom-made steel and glass partition doors were designed with a graceful arched profile and finished in a bespoke RAL-effect powder coating. The bi-fold design allows the space to be fully opened for an airy, open-plan feel or completely closed for privacy. Reeded glass fixed side panels add subtle texture and detailing, enhancing the overall elegance while maintaining a modern, lightweight aesthetic. These doors combine functionality with refined design, creating a striking yet practical architectural feature.

Originally, this room was an oversized, dark dining space, completely closed off from the kitchen. Working closely with the clients, we reimagined it as a versatile function space, suitable for family gatherings and events. To open up the layout, we demolished the wall separating the kitchen and the new function area, installing custom bi-fold glass doors to maintain flexibility. Existing doors to the garden room were enhanced with a bespoke panel system for a seamless, cohesive look. We also reconfigured the windows, removing the old frames and the central dividing wall, replacing them with full-width glazing that frames a beautiful side garden view and floods the space with natural light. The result is a bright, welcoming room that balances functionality with modern design.
