A 35m² Summerhouse Inspired by Space Habitats
A sustainable and functional summerhouse design in Denmark.
1A Summerhouse Inspired by Space
Designed by SAGA Space Architects, EcoNeo is a 35m² summerhouse located in Asnæs, Denmark. The design draws inspiration from space habitats, offering a comfortable living space for a family of six. Luxurious details like an indoor sauna are included in the compact layout.
2Built with Sustainable Materials
EcoNeo is constructed using biogenic materials such as OSB panels, wood-fiber insulation, and oak. These materials have a low environmental impact and create a warm atmosphere. The design reduces carbon emissions by 80% compared to traditional summerhouses.
3Smart and Multi-Functional Design
The interior is organized around a central living space, combining the kitchen, bathroom, storage, and a family dining table. The upstairs features a thoughtfully designed sleeping area. Every detail serves multiple functions, maximizing the use of space.
4The Terra-Tech Approach
SAGA's 'Terra-Tech' approach blends technical precision with material awareness. The design focuses not just on aesthetics but also on user experience. Digital fabrication techniques ensure high accuracy in construction.
5Comfort and Sustainability
EcoNeo proves that sustainable living doesn't mean sacrificing comfort. Warm timber surfaces, careful proportions, and a serene atmosphere make it an ideal summer retreat. The design encourages a more thoughtful consideration of needs.
6A Prototype for Future Housing
EcoNeo has the potential to become a scalable template for sustainable housing. SAGA's experience with space habitats brings a unique perspective to the project. The design embodies the idea of learning the best ways to live on Earth from space.
