Boat House

The main room, as the captain room, is located at the ship bow when the living room is using the whole width of the stern.

Inspired by the surrounding nature, by the lake, the house has the shape of an upturned boat hull. A wink to the ancient lake boat, Toucan or Macareux.

The boat hull is deformed to marry the site topography and frame the views to the lake.
