IST Family House by JRKVC
Inspired by Slovakian rural architecture, IST is a small family house designed by Slovakian architect Peter Jurkovič, an 80 sqm two-story space constructed with structural insulated panels installed on a massive concrete floor.
The icon–shaped house has tiny picturesque windows and a porch, the central plywood “service box” integrated with bathroom, toilet, stairs, storage and the kitchen.
