Russian studio Le Atelier tried to answer this question making the house from the environment and local techniques, from the “architectural garbage” they see driving to the town: big brick “palaces” from 90-s, wooden DIY-houses, industrial architecture, abandoned buildings. The square one-storey house was constructed on a basement that was made without any project by the client himself.
