In Detail’s summer issue House SSK is featured as a sustainable small home aiming to offer a high standard of living. With careful planning, detailing and minimal foundations, the house fills an urban void, while offering a maximum of indoor living ­qualities on a reduced footprint.

We were invited by the building owner to the basement of the building. Some people collect works of art, others collect stamps, our builder collected building materials. Over the years he had managed to gather a varied collection via second-hand websites and auctions: from parquet and plywood panels to a gas fireplace and a complete kitchen, enough to furnish an entire house.
