SNAGOV
To enjoy the peaceful surroundings of Lake Snagov, spend time water skiing, and escape Bucharest’s summer heat, our clients acquired a waterfront site. In fact, the jetty was built before the house itself.
The contemporary architectural design follows the site’s natural slope. The upper level, containing the bedrooms, is accessed from the higher ground at the rear of the site.
The living spaces are arranged on the lower level, opening directly onto the lakeshore and extending onto a generous terrace nestled among the trees.

A bespoke project or a pre-designed model to personalise?
Let's discuss your project and create a home that reflects your lifestyle.
https://www.architectureetbois.com/en/contact/Everything you need to know about Architecture & Bois
What types of architectural projects does Architecture & Bois undertake?
Nous intervenons dans tous types de projets, sans considération d’échelle dès lors que la conception architecturale est au coeur de notre travail.
Chaque projet est unique et trouve sa réponse dans une architecture sur mesure, en parfaite adéquation avec le programme, le site et les attentes du maître d’ouvrage. En revanche, nous n’intervenons pas sur des projets de rénovation sans extension ni transformation architecturale significative.
Which regions do you work in?
We design projects throughout France and internationally. Our practice is most active in the Greater Paris region and the Rhône-Alpes region, where we have offices. Construction supervision is entrusted to trusted local project managers, either from our network of partners or based in the region where the project is located.
Why hire an architect to design a bespoke home?
Hiring an architect means choosing a home designed entirely around your needs, lifestyle, site, budget and aspirations. Every project is unique, carefully balancing architectural quality, functionality, performance, durability and long-term property value.
