Set along a tranquil riverbank in the suburbs of Riga, the BPROM private residence pays tribute to Baltic ethnography, blending traditional character with the comforts of modern living.The architecture is deeply intertwined with the surrounding landscape, as the house bends along the natural curve of the road and river nearby, offering unexpected perspectives from every angle.

Grounded in the local craft, the project integrates forgotten materials to reveal the beauty of passing time - thatched reed roof and charred timber façade. The façade is stained in a blue pigment to mimic the creature that inspired the colour palette of the residence - a dragonfly.

Designed as a summer holiday home, BPROM includes a main house and a guest house with wellness facilities - sauna and SPA.

The interior is enriched with blue hues, cultivating a calming and grounding environment, while custom furniture and art pieces embody the residents’ individuality. Large windows and the translucent metal staircase work in harmony to foster a sense of openness. To deepen the connection between interior and architecture, a large metal fireplace extends both inside and out, appearing as a reflection across both spaces.

Baltic seasons are unimaginable without regular visits to the pirts - a ritual deeply woven into the local culture and architecture. BPROM residence was designed and built as a holiday home for restorative living, with the sauna house offering an intimate space to pause, take a deep breath and find strength through ritual and relaxation.

Here, various zones are blended into a recreational oasis. First, guests are welcomed into a kitchen and lounge area, softly illuminated by concealed lighting that sets a meditative atmosphere. The circular geometry of the lounge creates a natural focal point, promoting interaction and a sense of acceptance within the space. The pirts provides a calming view of the Zen garden, its stillness interrupted by a waterfall pool. Carefully nurtured by the homeowners, the Zen garden establishes a continuous dialogue between architecture and nature.
