empty roof volume, the design then even becomes contextual and sensual. Considered
over a year, the design only takes up what is absolutely necessary in the landscape and,
in the end, if it becomes necessary, provides everything one needs for daily life.

Sina Hartmann & Daniela Zang: USO 18.92

The design by Sina Hartmann and Daniela Zang does everything differently – here every-
thing is visible and hyperreal from the start. The whole range of common plastic furniture,
the opposite of good taste, awaits us: a 360 degrees cheap trip around the house. “What

thematically well- ordered according to function and absurdly rather pictorially screwed
onto the walls outside, do not make much sense vertically. Only once a wall is lowered
towards the inside, the incredible enigmaticness of the plasticized banality becomes
clear: a choice of steam-cleaned rooms perfectly prepared for a cosy TV evening, a nap
on the white terrace classics or a bath in the green room with a view outside becomes
available. An extreme direct interpretation of the task and yet, for the user, an invigorating
invitation to newly approach everyday living again and again. After plenty of “tiny mono-

striction is in the focus, here is a design with the makings of a conceptual blockbuster
that always stays in the mind. And: here design also comes with a sense of humour!

Luzie Koch: Out of the Box

Luzie Koch’s design adds calm again to the diversity of the designs. For her, quality
consists of a classic approach and the reliable choice of an aesthetic hardware-store
product put on a pedestal like in an exhibition. The intelligent layer underneath the
greenhouse condenses all the necessary functions of kitchen, bed to bathtub – to be
positioned inside or outside. Nature observation is made possible by the greenhouse.
Here heavy rain does not become a problem but a visual and acoustic intensifier of
the atmosphere – such as when taking a bath under glass. It is also consistent how na-

thing is turnkey, including the furnishing, all at a bargain price of less than 3,000 euros
– without fees for architects and building hours.
