House Attersee, Seewalchen, Austria Hertl Architekten House Attersee is situated on a relatively small site close to Attersee Lake in northwest Austria. The deep, cantilevered upper level creates a covered entry forecourt, intended as a kind of covered patio. The rectilinear ensemble consists of the house, garden wall, forecourt, and terraced garden. Wrapped in continuous horizontal bands of Swisspearl panels in three shades of grey, the architecture is cool and abstracted. On entering the building from the street, no fenestration can be seen; the only opening is the front door. All three bedrooms are situated on the lower level, while the communal open plan living, dining, and kitchen areas are above, overlooking the countryside.
