Architect Ramil Golubev designed wooden cottages for the remote northern district of Petrozavodsk Solomennoye, which overlooks not Lake Onega, but Logmozero. So far, rather dilapidated private houses prevail here, but gradually more and more "Scandinavian" houses are popular in the North-West - perhaps for young families of Petrozavodsk, and maybe for those who are tired of the big city of St. it's five hours to drive here. Nearby - forest and parks, lakes can be reached on foot.
Ramil Golubev's houses are also sustained in Scandinavian aesthetics. First of all, the material is local wood. The windows are small to trap heat, but there are many to let in more light. The roof is gable for better snow removal.
Six cottages
will continue the front of the building of local streets. Each house has a small plot, a parking area and a “identity” - a different color of window frames. The highlight of the houses is the cladding with triangular slats. Somewhere they are set in a herringbone pattern, and somewhere they overlap like blinds. Some slats are painted white, which enlivens the laconic form. Instead of a drain - a rain chain and a tank for collecting "gray" water.
"The idea of finishing with a vertical angular board came after visiting the Swedish city of Umeå," says the architect, "where the School of Architecture is located - a magnificent building by Henning Larsen Architects."
Each house has a veranda covered with translucent wooden pergolas, facing the courtyard and the forest. The main entrance with a small terrace, over which the volume of the children's room "hangs", is located from the street side. Also on the second floor there is a bathroom and a “parents' bedroom with a boudoir”. On the first floor there is a vestibule and a wardrobe, a hall, a shower room with a sauna, a kitchen and a living room with access to the terrace.
