Surrounded by Lush Nature | Concrete House

ByMyProperty Life

The Concrete House is surrounded by nature. Designed as a concrete and glass box, it offers spacious and integrated spaces. The pool blends with the surrounding mountain landscape. The second floor houses the social areas, all facing stunning views of nature. Construction details, such as small remaining holes in the concrete walls, are preserved, providing scenic light points. From the front facade, the mountains can be seen throughout the building. The visual permeability of the glass enclosures, mediated by a set of blinds that provide different gradations of privacy, allowed sharing the house’s privileged view with the street.

    Take a journey to the woods and trek through the forest. For every step you take, listen. A far cry from the city, the suburb- the familiar. Not there, but here. Be present. The house is a not a house. Nor are you, you. Here, it is different. The grazing of light gently paints the surfaces of the atrium. The windows are open fully; no, rather, nature, in all its sublime invites itself into the traveler’s abode, filtering the morning light – its rays carrying forth the scent of the pine forest beyond. Your coffee isn’t the same anymore. The slow drip of time are now ever evident, the light, pronounced. Your movements occupy the passage of time. Cooking around the kitchen island elevates an appreciation for nature’s bounty. As there is slow food, there is slow space, slowness, silence. The house weaves through the forest. Nature shapes the house, the house shapes light, and the light shapes us.
