With no electricity, water, or sewage systems available on the island, the project required a fully self-sufficient technical solution. Solar panels, a deep drilled well, and a biological mini-treatment plant together create an independent and sustainable living environment far from the mainland.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"619\" data-end=\"911\">The house is built in solid CLT timber, chosen not only for its warm architectural character but also for its durability. The exterior is clad in heat-treated wood, a material capable of withstanding the island\u2019s harsh climate of strong winds, fluctuating temperatures, and constant moisture.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"913\" data-end=\"1284\">Every building on the site is carefully positioned according to the natural conditions. The island is dominated by granite rock formations, and the layout respects these shapes while minimizing impact on the landscape.
