The family house for a couple with children is located in the green residential part of the city of Zagreb. The former family house was built in the 1950s on a steep hill slope and did not fully use all the advantages of the site nor did it meet the requirements of contemporary living standards. The beautiful view to the city and large garden was not valued appropriately. On both sides the site is bordered by a street and a high building. These contextual facts determined the concept and the shape of the new project. The 'L' layout with closed fronts 'protect' the house from the street and the neighbouring building. At the same time the garden has been redesigned with all the main rooms in the house oriented towards it. The living room, dining room and kitchen form a unique space and together with a swimming pool are built into the ground. In this way, being at the same level and separated from each other by a glass wall they bring the garden into the house.
