Estas cuevas son algo más que cuevas, verdaderos edificios personalizados, llenos de caracter, exotismo, ecología y encanto. Todas ellas son de Peter Vtsch. Un delirio para los sentidos y la mente tranquila.

	Life Peter Vetsch attended public school in Sax, Switzerland, from 1950 to 1956. He then attended an agricultural school in Cernier until 1962, where he graduated. Afterwards he was an apprentice in structural design in Winterthur and worked for an architecture office in St. Gallen. In the following years, Vetsch attended the academy of arts in Düsseldorf, Germany, where he graduated in 1970. After his diploma he worked for architecture offices in Germany and Switzerland. Occupational activity Peter Vetsch runs his own architecture office in Dietikon, (Switzerland) since 1978.Since the late 70's, Peter Vetsch has made a name for himself with his earth house architecture. To date he has built over 70 earth houses in Switzerland and other countries throughout the world. Earth houses by Peter Vetsch are based on the interpretation of an environmentally conscious, ecological and progressive architecture. Next to the earth houses, Peter Vetsch also builds conventional houses. With his technology (sprayed concrete constructions) he manages to create building shells which encompass maximum space volume with a minimum of surface area, an ideal form for energy saving. These constructions eschew right angles and their spatial diversity overcomes the the monotony of traditional normed designs. They remind us of Antoni Gaudí's organic forms as well as Jugendstil architecture.

	This settlement finds itself in contrast to the surrounding of traditional single houses. To the south of the lot, there is free agricultural land. The earth- covered houses are grouped centered around a small artificial lake with the entrance well hidden and integrated at the side of the settlement. That not just serves the completion of the form, but also guarantees the secondary access of the particular houses through the subterranean parking lot. The residential settlement consists of nine houses, three 3 bedroom, a 4 bedroom, a 5 bedroom, three 6 bedroom and a 7 bedroom house. The daytime areas are situated towards the south, the nighttime area towards the north. In the middle, you find the bathrooms and the connecting stairs to the basement. All the bathrooms get natural light through rooftop windows. Situated on both lateral sides of the houses are outdoor living spaces divided through the remainings of the rising of the building. The basement, as well as the parking lot is built with conventional techniques, not so the ground floor, which is constructed with the typical earthhome construction principle of sprayed concrete. The isolation consists of recycled glass, an absolute environment friendly product. The water protection is added directly on the sprayed concrete. On top of the isolation is a protective layer with natural earth, which can be used to grow grass or plants on the rooftop.

The integration of sculptures from the artist Bruno Weber, Spreitenbach, is striking. Pillars in the form of fabled animals support the arched ceiling construct-ion. The underside of the arches and domes with their integrated lighting is designed as heavenly vault spanning a marble-covered earth sphere. The sprayed concrete construction is insulated with polyurethane foam and is not earth-covered, so that it still corresponds to the prototype of the Bühler house.

Residential House Schweizer Location: Flurlingen, Switzerland Size of lot : 950 m2 Living space : 240 m2 Cubature: 1400 m3 Show more photos Description Positioned on the southern edge of dietikon, on a sloping piece of property with view of Zurich to the west. The dwelling is conceived as a free-standing one-family house, neither covered with earth nor integrated in the topography. The site’s slightly northern slope hinders topographical integration due to the lack of sunshine. The circular ground plan and dome-like form represent a prototype of the building model which Peter Vetsch then further developed and differentiated. It is a one-story building with a basement. Conventional structural elements are still apparent. The wall partitions of the ground floor are still made of brick, and the exterior wall of prefabricated elements are arranged in a circle and filled with concrete. An armature jutting from the basement roof supports the wire basket which rests on the brick partition walls of the basement, and once covered with sprayed concrete, forms the exterior shell. The exterior insulation consists of a 7-10 cm layer sprayed polyurethane.

The new project fulfils the demand for a suitable animal enclosure and optimal functioning. The activity rooms and stable are grouped around the playground in a protective angle, sheltering the neighbourhood from eventual noise with their earth-and-vegetation covered back sides. The buildings themselves are constructed in sprayed concrete. The earth-covered parts of the construction are sown in field cover and form a natural whole with the playground, animal enclosures and park gardens.
