Show House "Modern Post and Beam" in Bad Vilbel
An exclusive living environment in wood & glass
Modern post and beam architecture combined with extensive glazing: This show house by Meisterstück-HAUS – located at the „Eigenheim & Garten“ exhibition in Bad Vilbel near Frankfurt – conveys a sense of transparency and a spatial concept that seems to dissolve architectural boundaries. Clean lines, timeless aesthetics, a seamless transition between indoors and outdoors, and a playful interplay of light and sightlines define the architectural language of this single-family home. With approx. 244 sqms of living space, a layout featuring a spacious, impressive, open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, a gallery serving as a visual link between the two residential levels, a 37 sqm wellness oasis, and high-quality interior finishes, this home is truly unique.
The "Modern Post and Beam" by Meisterstück-HAUS is a residence designed for discerning families looking to build their own home, offering a fresh reinterpretation of the traditional single-family dwelling. As a successful symbiosis of time-honored post and beam construction, modern architecture, expansive glazing, and energy efficiency, it offers residential culture at its finest. The Meisterstück show house presents itself with a captivating aesthetic: designed to be open and transparent throughout its entire depth, its expansive floor plan creates spatial experiences that are truly fascinating. The charming interplay of white half-timbered woodwork, large-scale glazing, and bright walls is complemented by bespoke interior design elements – such as numerous built-in furnishings in the living area, kitchen, children's rooms, and elsewhere – which have been harmoniously coordinated in terms of material, color, and form to match the intricate timber framework and reflect the unique character of the half-timbered house.
On the ground floor, spanning approx. 148 sqm, the atmosphere is defined by fluid transitions between the living area, the open-plan kitchen, and a fully glazed, double high extension housing the dining area. The spacious ground-floor layout is complemented by a child’s bedroom, a guest bathroom with shower, an office with an adjoining storage room, and an additional multi-purpose room accessible from the outside. From the hallway, a single-flight, carpeted staircase leads up to the gallery situated beneath the gable roof. Arranged around this central point are the private quarters: a bedroom, a dressing area, and a spacious 37 sqm wellness zone (featuring a bathroom with a shower, bathtub, WC, and sauna). A light-filled studio completes the generous living space on the upper floor, bringing the total area to approx. 97 sqm.
Modern heating technology – featuring an air source heat pump and underfloor heating – ensures a year-round atmosphere of comfort, designed to meet the highest standards for energy-efficient living.
