X House
Residential Building for EgoHouse
Since the house is located in a unique place, it is a mixed forest located within the city, the priority in the design and construction was respect for the place and the preservation of existing green spaces. X-House interacts with the environment through a large area of panoramic glazing. The exterior of the house is made of natural materials - porcelain stoneware, metal, wooden elements, fiber-cement panels - which support the general idea dialogue with the place.

Production Technology
The cantilever roof outlets and terraces of the second floor, which form graphic broken lines around the main volume of the house, implemented in reinforced concrete structures were of particular interest to architects.The exterior of the house is made of natural materials - porcelain stoneware, metal, wooden elements, fiber-cement panels - which support the general idea of connection with nature, “enter into dialogue” with the place, and do not contradict it.
Project Duration
Project started in September 2017 and finished around January 2019, in Kharkiv, Ukraine.
Inspiration
Surrounded by a pure natural landscape, a phenomenon which is always unique in itself, architects wanted to turn to the basic principles and fundamental foundations of all applied disciplines - the play of light and shadow, volume and emptiness, combinations of contrast and nuance.
