:) Sometimes architecture, like novels and movies, tells stories.Kostenkovtsi village with "The 4 houses" is located in the northern hills between the towns of Gabrovo and Dryanovo.The beauty of the countryside here is really lavish, while each stone and every turn keep evidence of Bulgarian history, signs of cultural achievements by people of several civilisations. The houses are reconstructed old buildings from a typical Kostenkovtsi village yard – a residential building, a granary, a summer kitchen, and a barn. The old times' heritage has been kept alive as much as to give the soul of an otherwise contemporary vision. Tradition has been respected and brought to life, but not mummified.
The former barn has been re-created as a temple of beautiful spaces and cosiness. The white bedroom is on the level of the central entrance, placed in an atrium above the kitchen and living room. The living room sofa can be extended. The house is a space, seemingly created as a playground for the light that pours in from the east, south, west, from above and from below. An antique mirror, transformed into a living room table, reflects the sunrays that descend from the ceiling, refracted by the beams of the roof construction. One corner of the living room accommodates a "Chudo" (Miracle) woodstove which adds heat to cosiness on colder days. The window-door to the south porch, more than 3 m tall, turns the garden's fruit-trees into a painting as part of the interior. The small kitchen and dining room are in the colours of acacia trees.I personally recommend you to visit this place. Me and my family had an incredibly romantic weekend together.
