Surrounded by the landscape of the Vogelsberg, Europe's largest extinct volcano, on the outskirts of Freiensteinau, sits a holiday home with a compact cubature in monolithic construction, which follows the ‘Einfach Bauen’ concept.

A blend of contrasts: the 250-year-old Bavarian farmstead has been translated into the present day with fresh ideas, cheerful colours and proven courage.

Wildly growing, gently shaped or strictly designed. From small oases to spacious parks and transitions into the great outdoors. The variety is as great as it is colourful. A stroll through a selection of garden art.

Between town and mudflats: the two holiday homes at the foot of the Harlingen lighthouse unveil themselves as artfully designed tiny houses behind a Frisian façade.
