The family house was built for a young family who had recently started their family life with a newborn child in Csömör.

Csömör is a village in Hungary, in Pest county, Budapest metropolitan area in the Gödöllő subregion.

At first sight, the house looks undesigned, as if somebody could have built it by hand. This sense comes from the simplicity of the form, the unplastered facade and the characters of the materials.

This minimalist, formal simplicity derives from the logic of vernacular architecture.

The facade does not seem like a facade, faces the street, has only one small opening and a blind window with a tin box piece.

The building is a gate that separates three layers of living.

The house is two-faced, hidden from the public, and opening to the garden at the same time.

The layers are identified as the space of the street, that of private life, and finally, a secret garden behind the arches.

The back of the building, that has six glass arched windows and a door opening onto the garden, is the representative side, only visible from the garden. Only the middle door opens connecting both inside and outside.

The garden is filled with rushes, flowering plants distinguished by cylindrical stalks or hollow, stemlike leaves. They are found in temperate regions and particularly in moist or shady locations.

The secret garden is the symbol for the privacy of the family life, as the Hortus conclusus, the enclosed garden on the renaissance paintings.

Hortus conclusus is a Latin term, meaning literally "enclosed garden". It is both an emblematic attribute and a title of the Virgin Mary in Medieval and Renaissance poetry and art, suddenly appearing in paintings and manuscript illuminations about 1330.

The interior is an open communal space, with only two areas separated: the bathroom and working room. The warm and the cold colours show up together, the raw concrete blocks and the wooden walls complement each other.

As the family’s need to change the communal area by the time can also be divided into three different rooms.
