This thoughtfully designed timber house is a harmonious blend of modern aesthetics and sustainable living, situated on a picturesque hillside that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. The home’s design is rooted in simplicity and functionality, while emphasizing a strong connection to nature.Crafted using natural wood, the house exudes warmth and character, making it a cozy retreat amidst its scenic environment. The expansive windows are strategically placed to capture stunning panoramic views, while also creating a sense of shelter and intimacy. The architectural approach balances open, airy spaces with private, quiet areas, making the home feel both spacious and inviting.A sloped roof enhances the structure's unique geometry, adding visual interest and allowing for clever use of space within. The open-plan living area beneath the roof is both minimalist and efficient, designed to maximize comfort and usability. Sustainable features, such as energy-efficient heating with a dual system-a heat pump and a fireplace-ensure that the house remains eco-friendly without sacrificing comfort.Additionally, the home’s careful layout minimizes its impact on the landscape. It preserves the site’s natural elements, including an ancient tree, around which a small annex with a sauna has been built, creating a serene and secluded relaxation space. This thoughtful integration of nature and architecture exemplifies the house’s commitment to sustainability and rural harmony, making it a perfect retreat for those seeking a peaceful, nature-inspired living environment.
