Villa at Nõmme Street 5

Located in the calm Viimsi suburban community just outside of Tallinn, this private villa skilfully combines spatial diversity with conceptual simplicity. This low single-floored villa among tall pine trees generates a sensual contrast and defines the character of the site. Glass facades on opposite sides of the villa provide comfortable access to spacious terraces, while monolithic concrete walls determine the overall minimalist shape of the building.

Inside the villa private and public spaces are sequenced in accordance with the cross-shaped floor plan. Communal spaces, corridors and the centrally located open kitchen/living room with a dining area, are situated in the crossing axes which intersect the house. Private and auxiliary spaces are located in the four corner sections of the building. Designed as a rational yet sensuous and intimate space for living, this villa represents dignified contemporary lifestyle.
