Stirnų giraitė | Filippo Erasti

Stirnų giraitė is a private houses settlement surrounded by the Sakiškės forest. 

The area, comprising 14 plots, is located on the outskirts of the Lithuanian capital, Vilnius. The houses feature a distinctive sloped roof design, which serves not only as a practical solution for the significant amount of rain and snow in the area but also creates a dynamic composition of volumes covered entirely in dark slate cladding. In contrast to this material, the garages and technical areas of the houses, as well as the partitions between the windows, are identified by a rusted metal cladding known as Cor-Ten.
Considerable attention has been given to the planning of each individual house to ensure maximum privacy for the interior spaces, given the proximity to neighboring plots.
