Compact house in cubist style. Cubism in art

House in stone. The "Cubism" style in this case suggests that the house is something similar to a cube both outside and inside. And this assumption is absolutely correct. As in the article “House in stone. Option two. Art Nouveau style,” this house was created in artificial stone. Plus one more difference - there are practically no rounded lines characteristic of the stone houses already discussed. All lines are straight, everything forms cubes. Well, or parallelepipeds.

In Vitznau, in the canton of Lucerne in Switzerland, architecture agency Lischer Partner created this family home leaning against a mountain. The house is built on a gently sloping site, under a mountain slope, and its raw concrete structure blends harmoniously with the surrounding mountain landscape.

At first glance, you may not believe it, but inside this house there is also a small garden where you will find yourself if you want to enter the house. This garden is specially finished in wood, as is the interior of the house, to create unity between the inside and the outside.

Well, inside there are the promised cube-shaped spaces, trimmed with larch wood.

The stone house in the cubist style is a three-story summer house.

Among other details, the house is distinguished by multi-layer windows that cover almost the entire wall.

Why did such a strange combination arise - concrete outside, wood inside? Everything is very simple. In fact, the original desire of the customers was to live in a wooden house. However, the geological features of the area required the installation of a massive, durable monolithic block. Therefore, it was necessary to combine the internal wooden structure and the external concrete layer.

The success of the construction was facilitated by the refined concrete shell, which took on the reddish color and texture of the surrounding rocks due to the mixing of gravel based on these same rocks into the concrete.

In contrast to the harsh exterior cladding, all interior surfaces are covered in sanded wood. In this way, it was possible to optimally combine all the advantages of building materials - both wood and concrete.

So, a house in stone in the cubist style is an interesting experiment that led to a successful result.

Any architectural and construction project consists of three parts: architectural, design and engineering. This is a document without which the developer will not receive permission to begin construction.

The main part of the project is the architectural and design sections. If the customer is absolutely sure that the construction team will have intelligent specialists in engineering networks, then they can refuse to develop this part of the project in a specialized company. But it is necessary to understand that the architect, designer and engineer work on the project together and such aspects as, for example, grooves and openings in the walls for laying pipes and wires are provided for by them in advance.

The engineering part of the project is divided into several parts

  • Water supply and sewerage (WK)
  1. water supply scheme
  2. sewerage diagram
  3. general view of the system.

Before starting design, it is necessary to decide what kind of communication will be - individual or connected to a centralized system.

Individual water supply provides complete independence from external conditions. But you must remember that you will need your own water sources, and drilling a well will cost a decent amount.

Connecting to a centralized system will require developing a project in accordance with the technical conditions of the existing network and obtaining permission to connect.

When connecting a sewerage system to a centralized system, the procedure is the same as when connecting a water supply: submitting a request to the relevant services, developing a project, obtaining permission to tap into the system. If you decide to organize an individual sewer system, then from time to time you will have to invite a sewer service.

  • Heating and ventilation (HVAC)
  1. heating diagram: calculation of the required equipment power, distribution diagrams of heating mains, location of pipes and radiators
  2. ventilation diagram: connection to power electrical equipment, ventilation communications and shafts, passage nodes and, if necessary, placement of stoves and fireplaces
  3. boiler piping (if necessary)
  4. general instructions and recommendations for the section.

If the ventilation system is always an individual design, then heating can be either individual (stove, air, water, electric) or connected to centralized networks.

  • Power supply (ETR)
  1. lighting wiring
  2. power network wiring
  3. ASU diagram
  4. grounding system
  5. detailed description and characteristics of all system elements.

Electrical systems can be divided into mandatory and optional. Mandatory items include interior and exterior lighting, ventilation, air conditioning and electric heating systems. Additional systems include systems such as “Warm floor” or automated gate control.

IMPORTANT

  • Each part of the engineering section of the project must contain general and technical descriptions, specifications of materials and necessary equipment.
  • Drawings of elements of all systems and floor electrical wiring are made on a scale of 1:100.

Changes in the project

Often the customer is faced with the question: choose a standard house project and save money, while losing on the originality of the future home, or order an individual project, but for a lot of money.

Our company offers a compromise option. You order a standard project,
and we make changes to it, taking into account all your wishes as much as possible. Of course, this involves additional costs, but, in any case, such a project will cost much less than work for a specific order. And we will make sure that your home looks original.

The following changes can be made to the house design:

move wall partitions. But only if they are not load-bearing. This operation will allow you to change the size and purpose of the rooms

moving window and door openings will allow you to change the lighting of the rooms and organize convenient access to the rooms you need

changing the type of ceilings and walls will allow you to fully realize your own ideas about economical and rational housing

change the height of the ceilings. Although all our houses are designed with an optimal room height of 2.8 m, some customers believe that high ceilings provide additional coziness and comfort

Converting an attic into living space will give you the opportunity to expand your own living space

It is worth changing the angle of inclination of the roof and awnings taking into account the climatic conditions of a particular region

it is necessary to change the type of foundation, taking into account the engineering and geological parameters of the soil. It is also possible to add or change a basement or ground floor

you can add, remove, change a garage or terrace, in accordance with your ideas about the functionality of your home

changing the structural composition, construction and finishing materials will allow you to economically manage your own financial resources

the project in a mirror image will allow the house to organically fit into the surrounding landscape.

The changes made should not affect the safety of the home.

Too many changes usually do not improve the project. If you couldn’t choose a suitable house from the catalogs, then maybe it’s worth ordering housing from an architect based on an individual project.

Package "Foundation adaptation"

When a standard house design is developed, certain average soil parameters are taken as a basis. But without accurate geological examination data, it is difficult to take into account all the nuances when designing. Therefore, often the engineering and geological characteristics of a real site differ significantly from those originally included in the project. This means that the foundation - the basis of the entire house - will need to be modified to make it strong and reliable.

To completely eliminate all problems when laying the foundation, our company’s specialists have developed the “Foundation Adaptation” package. When implementing the package, not only technical characteristics are taken into account, but also the wishes of the customer.

This package includes:

  • selection of foundation type
  • calculation of technical parameters:

Depth of laying the base of the foundation
- load bearing capacity
- indicators of soil stress under the foundation
- cross-sectional area of ​​working reinforcement, etc.

  • detailed drawings of the zero cycle
  • cost sheet for construction materials.

Adaptation of the foundation provides a complete guarantee of its strength, and therefore the reliability of the entire building. You are guaranteed to get rid of problems such as shrinkage and cracks during the operation of a finished house. Moreover, often the adapted foundation turns out to be cheaper than the option originally included in the project. And this will help save materials and financial resources.

Individual design

If you decide to build a house, then you have your own idea of ​​what your dream home should be like. And if none of the standard projects suits you, it makes sense to think about an individual project. In addition, all your wishes will be taken into account as much as possible: level of comfort, family composition, even the view from the window. It is clear that such a project will not be cheap. But you will know for sure that there is no other like it.
Sometimes, however, you have to resort to individual design. For example, a developer received a plot of land with a non-standard configuration, and not a single standard project simply fits into it. And it also happens that the number of changes made by the customer is such that it is easier and cheaper to design a house from scratch.

Stages of working on an individual project:

  • development of technical specifications for house design
  • contract for design work
  • preparation of a preliminary design: linking the building to the area, external and internal views, layouts, sections
  • detailed study of project sections.

In addition, you can also order:

  • projects for additional structures - garage, workshop, bathhouse, etc.
  • visualization of the project in 3D format.

Ultimately, the customer receives a package of design documentation consisting of architectural and structural sections.

The project features:

  • General plan of the house linking it to the boundaries of the site.
  • Floor plans, which indicate the thickness of walls, lintels and partitions, room areas, specifications of windows and doorways.
  • Facade plans indicating finishing materials and color schemes.
  • Sections of the building and main components.
  • Drawings and sections of the foundation, material consumption sheet.
  • Calculation of the ceiling, roof truss system, insulation and waterproofing components of the roof.

You can decide on the style of your future home in the “Individual Design” catalog.

Package "Tender proposal"

For any developer, the question from the funny nursery rhyme "what should we build a house...?" far from idle. Moreover, the cost of building a house depends on many factors. Therefore, you should not estimate costs by eye. Without complete information, it will not be possible to calculate everything down to the smallest detail and, in the end, it will cost you more. And, in addition, a careful calculation of the cost of materials and work affects not only your finances, but also the time frame for building a house.

You can accurately calculate construction costs using the “Tender Offer” service developed by our specialists. Essentially, this is a document that provides a complete list of all construction materials and work, indicating their volumes.

Having a tender offer allows you to:

  • get a real picture of the costs of upcoming construction
  • attract a construction company that can offer the most favorable conditions for the work
  • not only understand the essence of the construction process, but also competently control the consumption of building materials, independently adjusting prices for each item
  • competently control the actions of contractors at all stages of construction

a tender proposal supported by information on the cost of materials and construction work is a serious argument for obtaining credit funds from the bank.

Anti-ice package

Snowdrifts and ice on the roof of your house in winter cause a lot of trouble. You can, of course, climb onto the roof and swing a shovel in the cold for 2-3 hours - no matter what. But effective snow melting and anti-icing systems have long been invented and widely used. Their basis is heating cables. The system is organized according to the same principle as a “warm floor”. Only more powerful and the cable laying step is smaller.

The Anti-Ice package is developed taking into account the characteristics of the home's energy supply:

for the roof and gutters: snow melting in gutters, at the edge of the roof to prevent the formation of icicles and ice in pipes

for the entrance group: heated steps, paths and open areas

for the entrance to the garage: heated driveways

in addition, sometimes the Anti-Ice system is used to heat the soil in greenhouses, and for landscape heating of flower beds, lawns and lawns, as well as for heating sports facilities.

During the design process, the minimum energy consumption is calculated and fire safety is ensured. When creating an Anti-Ice system, it is recommended to use only certified self-heating elements that do not support combustion. In addition, the system is equipped with an overheat shutdown device or a differential circuit breaker to automatically shut down the system when energy loss is detected. If the system turns out to be too large, it is divided into smaller sections. This makes it easier to manage its work.

Important:

For multi-pitched roofs, the specialists of our company will design the Anti-Ice system according to individual orders.

Package "Lightning protection"

Often, developers do not attach much importance to protecting their own houses from lightning: some save, some count, others hope for chance. But 3-4 years after building a house, many people remember lightning protection. Maybe my neighbor’s household appliances burned out in a thunderstorm, or maybe I came across statistics about how many fires happen due to lightning each year.

We propose to resolve the issue immediately: to provide protection already at the design stage of the house. This is worth thinking about, at least for purely aesthetic reasons - you won’t need to once again hammer into the walls of the house and pull the down conductor along the facade, disturbing the thoughtful appearance of the building.

Lightning protection for a home is a system of devices located both outside the home and indoors. External lightning protection prevents lightning from entering the house, internal lightning protection protects the electrical network from sudden voltage surges. And special devices protect electrical equipment from sudden changes in the electromagnetic field within the radius of a lightning strike.

The Lightning Protection package includes

  • layout diagram of lightning rods that absorb direct lightning strikes
  • cross-sectional diagram of a down conductor diverting current from the lightning rod to grounding
  • diagram of a grounding loop that distributes lightning energy in the soil, ensuring complete safety
  • averaged resistance calculations
  • detailed list of required materials
  • recommendations for project implementation.

The Lightning Protection package from Dom4M guarantees your home safety even in the most severe thunderstorm.

Package "Central vacuum cleaner"

"Central vacuum cleaner" is a type of aspiration system(removal of small particles by sucking them in with an air flow).

The system consists of:

  • vacuum cleaner(installed in the technical room);
  • air duct system along which the dust-air mass moves (hidden installation is often carried out in the preparation of the floor or in the space behind the false ceiling);
  • pneumosockets and pneumatic scoops(the first is connected to a flexible hose with a telescopic rod and a nozzle, as in a regular vacuum cleaner, the second is intended for express cleaning, usually in the kitchen).

Pros:

  • removable dusty no air gets in back into the room, and is “thrown out” after the unit onto the street;
  • No noise in cleaned areas.
  • Ease of cleaning without “dragging” the vacuum cleaner from room to room, without using extension cords.
  • Hidden installation system, there is nothing in the room except an air outlet.

Package "Comfortable Home"

Explanatory dictionaries claim that comfort is a set of household amenities, without which life is unthinkable
modern man in a modern house. Most of these amenities are included at the design stage. But we are ready to expand their list and help clients make their own homes as comfortable as possible.

Therefore, our company Dom4m has developed for you the “Comfortable Home” package, which will make your home cooler on a hot summer day, and cozy and warm on winter colds.

The Comfortable Home package includes

  • Warm floor project. This is a modern technology for heating a home. It can be used by connecting to both a local and centralized heating system. In addition, heated floors can be both the main and additional source of heat in the room. The main advantage of the system is that it creates a uniform thermal regime, does not dry out the air, and at the same time fits organically into any interior.
  • Design of a ventilation system with recovery. Unlike traditional systems, ventilation with recovery makes it possible to save significant money during operation. The essence of the system is that the exhaust air, passing through the recuperator, gives up its heat to the cold flow coming from the street. Everything ingenious is simple. This system allows you to significantly reduce heating costs. Savings reach up to 80%. And, in addition, the load on the network is reduced. In the summer, using a ventilation system with recovery, you can cool warm air from the street. And here you already get savings from reducing energy consumption when air conditioning your home.
  • Air conditioning system design. This project offers you the choice of a ducted air conditioner with distribution of air flows throughout the rooms or a multi-split system, which allows you to connect several indoor units to an external unit at once.

Cubism created an important link between early 20th century art and architecture. The historical, theoretical and socio-political relationships between avant-garde practices in painting, sculpture and architecture had significant consequences in France, Germany, the Netherlands and Czechoslovakia. Although there are many points of intersection between Cubism and architecture, only a few direct connections can be made between them. Most often, connections are made by mentioning common formal characteristics: faceted form, spatial ambiguity, transparency and multiplicity.

The architectural interest of Cubism focused on the disintegration and combination of three-dimensional forms, using simple geometric shapes superimposed on each other without the illusion of classical perspective. Various elements can be added, made transparent or interpenetrating each other, while maintaining their spatial relationships. Cubism became an influential factor in the development of modern architecture from 1912 (the Cubist house of Raymond Duchamp-Villon and André Marais), developing in parallel with the architects Peter Behrens and Walter Gropius, thanks to the simplification of building design, the use of materials suitable for industrial production and the increased use of glass .

Cubism in architecture strove for a style that did not require reference to the past. Thus, what became a revolution in painting and sculpture was directed toward a “profound reorientation of a changed world.” The cubo-futurist ideas of Filippo Tommaso Marinetti influenced relationships in avant-garde architecture. The influential Style movement used the aesthetic principles of Neoplasticism, developed by Piet Mondrian under the influence of Cubism in Paris. Thanks to Gino Severini, "Style" was also linked to Cubist theories through the works of Albert Gleizes. However, the combination of basic geometric forms with characteristic beauty and ease of industrial use - which was anticipated by Marcel Duchamp in 1914 - was left to the founders of purism, Amédée Ozanfant and Charles-Édouard Jeanneret (better known as Le Corbusier), who exhibited paintings together in Paris, and in 1918 published the book After Cubism. Le Corbusier's ambition was to transfer the features of his own style from Cubism into architecture. Between 1918 and 1922, Le Corbusier concentrated his efforts on purist theory and painting. In 1922, he and his cousin Jeanneret opened a studio in Paris at 35 Rue de Sèvres. His theoretical studies soon spread to many different architectural projects.

La Maison Cubiste (Cubist House)

The 1912 Salon d'Automne featured an architectural installation that quickly became known as the Maison Cubiste (Cubist House), signed by Raymond Duchamp-Villon and André Marais, along with a group of collaborators. Metzinger and Gleizes, in their manifesto On Cubism, written during the assembly of Maison Cubiste, wrote about the independent nature of art, emphasizing that decorative aspects should not control the spirit of art. Decorative work for them was the “antithesis of image.” “A true image,” wrote Metzinger and Gleizes, “carries its raison d’être (meaning) within itself. It can be transferred from a church to a living room, from a museum to a study. Essentially independent, inevitably complete, it does not necessarily immediately satisfy the mind : on the contrary, it must lead him, little by little, to the fictitious depths in which the light resides. It is not in harmony with this or that ensemble; it is in harmony with things as a whole, with the universe: it is an organism...” were adopted as frames for Cubist works because they allowed the paintings and sculptures to retain their independence,” writes Christopher Green, “creating a play of contrasts, as a result of the participation not only of Gleizes and Metzinger themselves, but also of Marie Laurenciand, the Duchamp brothers (Raymond Duchamp-Villon who designed façade) and old friends Marais, Leger and Roger de la Fresnais, La Maison Cubiste was a fully furnished house with a staircase, wrought iron railings, a living room - a Bourgeois salon, where paintings by Marcel Duchamp, Metzinger (Woman with a Fan), Gleizes hung. , Laurencina and Leger, and the bedroom. It was an example of L'art décoratif (decorative arts), a house in which Cubist art was displayed in the comfort and style of modern, bourgeois life. Spectators at the Autumn Salon walked through a full-scale 10-by-3-meter plaster model of the first floor of the façade designed Duchamp-Villon. This architectural installation was subsequently exhibited at the Arsenal Exhibition of 1913 in New York, Chicago and Boston, and is listed in the New York exhibition catalog as Raymond Duchamp-Villon, number 609 and under the title "Architectural Stucco Façade".

Original cubist architecture is very rare. There is only one country in the world where Cubism was actually applied to architecture - namely Bohemia (today the Czech Republic) and especially in its capital Prague. Czech architects were the first and only ones in the world who ever designed original buildings in the Cubist style. Cubist architecture flourished mainly from 1910 to 1914, but buildings in the Cubist style or influenced by it were also built after the First World War. After the war, Prague developed an architectural style called Rondocubism, a combination of Cubist architecture with circular forms.

In their theoretical rules, Cubist architects expressed the need for dynamism, which would prevail over the essence and peace contained in it, through a creative idea, so that the result evokes in the beholder a feeling of dynamism and expressive plasticity. This was to be achieved through forms derived from pyramids, cubes and prisms, the arrangement and juxtaposition of inclined surfaces, mainly triangular, sculptural facades in projecting crystal-like elements, similar to the so-called diamond cut, or even cells, which are reminiscent of late Gothic architecture. Thus, all surfaces of the facades are given shape, including even the gables and roof windows. Grilles, as well as other architectural decorations, take on three-dimensional shapes. At the same time, new forms of windows and doors were created, such as hexagonal windows. Czech Cubist architects also created Cubist furniture.

Leading Cubist architects were: Pavel Janák, Josef Goczar, Vlastislav Hoffman, Emil Kraliczek and Josef Chochol. They worked mainly in Prague, but also in other Czech cities. The most famous Cubist building is considered to be the House of the Black Mother of God in the Old Town of Prague, built in 1912 by Josef Goczar with the only Cubist cafe in the world, the Grand Café Orient. Vlastislav Hoffman built the entrance pavilions of the Dyablitsky cemetery in 1912-1914, Yosef Chochol designed several residential buildings near Vysehrad. Near Wenceslas Square there are also cubist lanterns designed by Emil Kralíček in 1912, who also built the Diamond House in Prague's New Town around 1913.
