This elegant 30 square meter backyard pavilion, which was designed by the second edition, contradicts the typical aesthetics, which is often associated with “safe” or “recycled” Aboden.
In fact, the design was executed so thoughtfully that it is forgiven that it was made with virgin materials.
Love Shack is the prototype of the second edition for material reuse, design for disassembly and small functionality.
“The nuclear philosophy focuses on the minimization of waste and maximizing the lifespan in order to re -determine predetermined ideas about how safe materials should look and work,” says Shach Cohen, co -founder of the Second Edition.
Love Shack was developed as an extension of the house and the garden as a multifunctional studio, living and guest room area thanks to the clever recording of adaptable furniture.
In its usual condition it is a living room, but a Murphy bed can be pulled down to transform it into a bedroom, and the room can also serve as an office for meetings.
“The main guideline was to maintain as much of the garden as possible and to have a structure that was not imposed and overshadowed,” explains Shale. “For this reason, we kept the structure low and small and inserted doors that enabled the transparency to the back limit when they were opened.”
Recycled wood was used for the structure, including columns, beams, rays and rafters, doors and window frames, while shredded marble waste was used in the rendering of the facade.
On the inside, the valley wood flooring for the wall outlines and the remaining leaves made of OAK and Oregon veneer were reused to achieve the carpentry. Even the customer -specific lights were made from the non -advised wooden floorboards from the sections.
Shach says you are the proud that the materials of old planks and marble networks are transformed into robust and structured elements that bring the project to life. “
Only three elements of the build are new; The tiles, the plasterboard and the aluminum spa sandstarch.
“While we were originally intended for these components to be replaced by the construction of the build on the basis of time and cost restrictions,” explains Shahar.
Designing and building with recycled materials does not come without any problems. Above all, although safe materials generally come to lower conditions, the design takes more time, which increases labor costs.
“Our industry is currently geared towards a linear construction process, which means that circular processes generally cost more,” says Shale.
“But we can work together as an industry by normalizing these systems and processes for more projects and are open with our knowledge between the same age. With every iteration, the process becomes more efficient and optimal.”
Love Shack is just the beginning.
