The super-contemporary Pouta 101 – from our Finnlamelli range – is one of our newer designs. It could fit well in an urban setting – perhaps with the bathroom end of the house facing the road. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring in plenty of natural light to the open plan living, dining and kitchen area.
The unusual offset pitched roof extends over the terrace at the living room end of the house, with a fully glazed door opening onto the terrace. The master bedroom also has windows onto the terrace – just imagine waking up and being able to see out to your garden. The triple glazed windows can optionally have blinds installed within the glazing, which could be useful if the windows face south, helping to avoid overheating.
As shown, the house has three bedrooms, utility room, separate WC, and a bathroom with a sauna off the utility room. There’s also a plant room with its own outside door.
However, as with all our designs, the internal layout could be altered to suit – perhaps have an ensuite off the master bedroom, combine the plant room with the utility room, and make the main bathroom larger. Self build is all about you!
