The ensemble will expand with two additional levels in a light wood construction. Moreover, the existing facades will be covered with a filigree wood structure and a layer of wood balconies facing the lake. Building on the built preserves the existing and historically valuable, small-scale structures such as a barn, baths, and boat house and leaves room for an open green space.
