Our childhood was spent in summer cottages. We tried to transfer our memories to the project of a typical house, which would inherit this typology dear to the hearts of the authors in a new capacity. Our project is a small, simple and comfortable house with an attic floor under a high gable roof. All solutions are based on simplicity of design and user friendliness. The plan is a rectangle with sides of 8 and 10 meters. On the ground floor there is an entrance loggia, a vestibule, a hall, a large utility room that can accommodate a boiler room, a pantry and a laundry room, a bathroom, a guest bedroom/study and a combined kitchen - living room - dining room. The stairs to the second floor are located in the hall, opposite the entrance. In the basic version, the house is equipped with a terrace, on which a veranda is possible. The entrance can be supplemented with the removal of the porch visor. On the second floor there are two spacious bedrooms, separated by a hall, a bathroom and a small opening of the second light into the living room. The verified functional zoning allows organizing a full-fledged space for the life of a family of 4-6 people on a relatively small area.
