The modern single-family house was not only built using a newly developed building material (infra-lightweight concrete), but also on a plot of land that to many seemed unable to be built upon up until now. The newly developed building material "infra-lightweight concrete" consists of a mixture of cement and additives such as expanded clay, a mineral and ecological material. The difficult thing about this is that the concrete has to be viscous enough when it is introduced into the formwork, but also not too thin to avoid segregation. "Infra-lightweight concrete" has excellent thermal insulation properties and promises a good indoor climate, as the material can compensate for fluctuations in moisture. The result: a monolithic, uniform concrete inside and out. As if hewn from a single piece of rock. Floating above it is the white top floor that projects on all sides. The modern family home stands out due to its clear language of design. The family home is located at the entrance to the town of Freising. To the north of the property towers a forested range of hills, which could not be encroached upon during construction. All that remained was a narrow strip between the hillside and the street. For this reason, the property remained undeveloped for a long time. The architectural firm Fiedler + Partner has taken on this challenge.
