The story behind the house If the HUF IDEAL house could talk, it could fill entire books with its story, because for more than 40 years, it has been growing with its residents and their changing demands on its architecture, function and appearance. With creativity and vision, the owners have transformed the simply but solidly built existing building into a modern residential house with a plethora of wood and glass. For decades, the team at ServiceART has been by their side. The house’s biggest change probably came in 2016 when a glass living area extension was added to the south side. The house and extension form an architectural unit and, thanks to their proximity to nature, create that distinctive HUF HAUS feeling. Yet another advantage is the view. On a clear day you can see the Frankfurt skyline from the terrace and from inside the studio on the first floor. MORE DETAILS ABOUT THE HOUSE House: HUF IDEAL house + Extension Heating: Heat pump Year of construction (house): 1977 Roof pitch: Pitched Roof Year of construction (extension): 2016 Features: Skyline View Symmetry Together with HUF HAUS architect Elmar Deichmann, the idea was born to create a generous living space extension on the gable side of the house over two floors. "The extension was placed centrally in front of the existing symmetrical gable, with the aim of preserving the balanced symmetrical proportions of the HUF house", explains the architect.
