The position of the site in Troja is unique at the edge of a hill above the metropolis. Even from a comfortable ´bungalow´ at the garden level, the panoramic horizon can be seen almost at 270º providing an elite view to Prague landmarks without any confrontation with neighbours.We proposed a design trying to learn from the existing house and even more exploit the local benefits. The following words became the crucial ones to us:  sun, horizon, border, garden, pavilion. The garden is not just a stage decoration in our design in which the architecture of the house plays the leading role. The house does not consume the garden as a space for its exhibiting and dominating. On the contrary, by its shape and position, the house defines, imprints different characters to it; it establishes hideaways. The house delineates the space of a protected balanced garden at the level of the entrance to the property; the line of a distant horizon under which the Prague skyline with its landmarks softly undulates can be seen through a glazed pavilion from here. From this garden, one can walk through the house to a terrace raised above the lower wooded garden. The terrace provides the optimum height from which a wide-angle panorama can be seen above the shrubs and below the crown of trees in the lower garden; a view marked with only streaks of slim trunks of trees in front. The pavilion’s shape follows the ecliptic from dawn to dusk. Its roof drifts like a small puff of smoke between tree crowns. Their position, in fact, generates the roof’s shape. The roof connects the interior to the exterior, shades from the sun, protects the intimacy of occupants against views from neighbouring houses. Pushing the house out to the south side of the site and extending the level of the higher garden establishes a border – tension between elevations. At the same time, it defines different characters of the garden from the social and stately one at the entrance level to the relaxation and intimate one on at the lower level. The characters of the storeys directly continue the gardens’ nature. Operationally, the house is strictly divided into functional units: social and private, day and night ones. The house is designed so that it would integrate and ´become lost´ in the garden in time; so that the garden would dominate more and more and the architecture would grow into more subtle and fragile as compared to it. To let the occupants more and more enjoy the natural background of a unique place where the city lays in front of their feet.
