Glass meets history -
a radiant home
Oasis of Light
An oasis of light – a more fitting description for this stunning, light-flooded estate could not be found. The view from the street hardly hints at the openness and all-glass architecture that characterizes the opposite side of the house, which opens into the artfully designed garden. The reason: The house is under historic preservation, which meant that the facade facing the street could not be altered. In the course of a comprehensive renovation and an extension, the back of the house, built in 1954, was reimagined and equipped with floor-to-ceiling, expansive glass surfaces. Pure aesthetics in every detail!

The extremely slim frames of the sliding door, combined with the visually frameless all-glass system, set the stage for the view outside. They create a maximum glass area and seamlessly connect the interior with the exterior into a harmonious whole.
Anyone entering the Light Oasis immediately feels a genuine sense of well-being. In the kitchen, bright, modern accents combined with wood create a warm, inviting atmosphere. A beautiful place that invites you to linger.
Artistic, aesthetic, and design-conscious. These three words aptly describe the view from the stylishly arranged outdoor area into the living room, whose focal point is a black grand piano. The floor-to-ceiling glass surfaces open up the space to pure brightness.
