V udobni in prijetni četrti stanovanjskih hiš v Grosupljem se je poleti pred dvema letoma skoraj čez noč pojavil nenavaden objekt. Lesen kubus, ki raste iz prvega nadstropja enodružinske hiše in na prvi pogled lebdi nad vrtom, je mimoidoče še najbolj spominjal na savno. In še danes le malokdo ve, da se za lesenimi stenami skriva prostorna spalnica in da je kubus pravzaprav prizidek, ki se predvsem s svojo pojavnostjo razlikuje od stereotipnih pritličnih prizidkov, ki stihijsko rastejo ob mnogih stanovanjskih hišah. Slovenija je namreč preplavljena z variacijami enodružinske hiše, ki temeljijo na konvencionalnem in preživetem konceptu toge delitve bivalnih enot, ki ne omogoča veliko fleksibilnosti in se le težko prilagaja spremembam v strukturi družin in delovnih vzorcih. Pomanjkanje prostora se večinoma rešuje s samograditeljstvom in prizidkarske strasti Slovencev se večinoma manifestirajo v slabih, banalnih pritličnih objektih.

In the summer two years ago, a snug and cosy residential area of Grosuplje saw a strange structure appear almost overnight. The wooden box, growing from the first floor of a family house and seemingly hovering above its garden, vaguely reminded passers-by of a sauna. Even today few know that the wooden walls conceal a spacious bedroom: the cube is actually an extension, but it looks different from the stereotypical low-level additions which grow chaotically on many residential houses. In fact, Slovenia has been overrun by variations of family houses based on the conventional and obsolete concept of a rigid division of housing units, which does not allow for great flexibility and can hardly adapt to changes in the structure of families and jobs. The lack of space is usually resolved through self-made extensions. The Slovenians' passion for extensions mostly results in bad, banal one-storey buildings.
