This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.
Designed by Swiss architect Peter Zumthor for his own occupation, this minimalist property is comprised of open multi-functional spaces.
Of the house, Zumthor said, ‘Living and working, family, children, grandchildren; spaces for living, spaces for working with younger colleagues, or inventing and planning buildings – to me these things belong together, and that is what the house was built for.’
