A private house in Łask-Kolumna, comprising a residential section and a winter garden (greenhouse), is a unique example of bioclimatic architecture - combining functionality with ecological innovation. At the same time, it remains one of the few completed designs by Witold Lipiński, the visionary architect behind such iconic works as the meteorological observatory on Mount Śnieżka and the “Igloo House” in Wrocław.
This publication is the culmination of the project An Unfinished Prototype – The Art of Bioclimatic Design. Documentation and Research of Witold Lipiński’s Experimental House in Łask-Kolumna, and complements the monograph “Kształt marzeń. Architektura Witolda Lipińskiego” by shedding light on a lesser-known example of the architect’s pioneering work.
