Project idea

The Nelson's landscape was a main driver for the design. The soft curved roof of the bouse invokes both the surrounding mountains and the organic tluidity of nearby hills, making the façade more blended with nature.

Project description

The interior design aims to create an atmosphere of intense calmness and serenity, taking advantage of the house's double height and its surrouuding landscape. It consists of a bedroom with its built in planter, dressing and a bathroom. The open plan living area, fireplace, atelier and kitchenette form a calming unity in relation to each other

Technical information

The main structure is built with a sustainably sourced wood, selected as a renewable resource. lts warmth, ease of use and natural aesthetics with the natural day light flooding the house provide a sense of wellness and health.
The wood is locally available, requires low energy to produce and is recyclable, providing a suslainable full lifecycle product.
lnterior walls are covered in a clay render, which helps regulating humidity and temperature, and provides a pleasing organic texture. The natural materials used throughout offer a calm color palette that harmonizes with the wooden structure, while achieving a peacefül and biophillic interior that carries its residents away from the reality of the city.
