The Pierre
The Pierre is one of the most beautiful houses I’ve seen in a long time and its view over the San Juan Archipelago is incredible! The house celebrates the materiality of the site and that combined with a green roof makes the house blend with the surrounding, making it almost invisible from certain angles. I’m having a hard time finding anything wrong with the exterior or the interior for that matter. The interiors combination of older looking, inviting furniture stands in wonderful contrast with the raw concrete walls. Well what can you say, Olson Kundig Architects has done a wonderful job! Enjoy lots more photos after the jump.
Location: San Juan Islands, USA

Vacker villa av Young & Young
I Franklin, Michigan ligger villan här ovan. Jag vet rätt lite om den vackra villan men jag vet att den är ritad av Young & Young Architects och helt och hållet konstruerad av insulating concrete forms, som är frigolitformar fyllda med cement som både är starka och isolerar väl. Young & Young Architects jobbar med det de kallar “orcanic architecture”och är medlem av The U.S. Green Building Council så valet av ett energisnålt byggmaterial som insulating conrete forms känns rätt logiskt. Fler bilder av villan efter hoppet så klart… Plats: Franklin, Michigan, USA Kund: Privat Byggnadstyp: Villa Arkitekt: Young & Young Architects > Young & Young ArchitectsGo on
House D
Som utlovat så kommer här ännu ett inlägg med ett hus signerat slovenska arkitektbyrån Bevk Perović arhitekti. Huset heter House D och har precis som House HB olika nivåer av avskildhet. Källaren innehåller ett gym, spa, pool, musikrum, arbetsrum och tre atriumgårdar. Utrymmen har alla glasväggar mot atriumgårdarna för att att släppa in dagsljus. Men eftersom det mesta ligger undermarken är utrymmena mycket privata. På markplan lever ägarna så där finns vardagsrum, kök, matsal och en stor terass där källarens atriumgårdar sticker upp och ger den annars karga terassen lite grönska och liv. En trappa upp finns sovrumet (ja, bara ett), badrum och en balkong som har samma storlek som rummet. I morgon kan ni komma tillbaka och läsa om House K. Plats: Rožna dolina, SI-1000 Ljubljana, Slovenien Byggår: 2005-2007 Byggnadstyp: Villa Kund: Privatkund Storlekt: 627,64 m² Arkitekter: Bevk Perović arhitekti (Matija Bevk, Vasa J. ...Go on
Modernt tehus
Att tillaga te är en konstform i Japan och har varit så i nästan tusen år. Den ”moderna” teceremonin (cha-no-yu) utformades av zenbuddhistmunk Sen no Rikyū på 1500-talet och ska helst utövas i ett tehus eller terum. Tehusen är ofta väldigt, klassiskt, japanska i sitt utförande, det är dock inte de tehuset som det här inlägget handlar om. Jun Igarashi Architects har ritat ett unikt, nersänkt, tehus i rå betong och vackert rostfärgad metal. Eftersom tehuset är nersänkt kan man använda taket som bord. Väldigt snyggt (ni borde veta att jag är svag för obehandlade material vid det här laget) och bilderna på bygget är inte dumma heller, känns som det är bilder på ett Märklin-landskap man tittar på.Go on

[...] Nestled between giant boulders and overlooking the San Juan Archipelago, this fascinating looking house comes from Olson Kundig Architects and is also known as the Pierre residence. We consider this project to be a beautiful and inspiring example of how to combine natural elements with contemporary building designs. The Pierre house was constructed more or less using local materials which is also why it seems to integrate so well in its landscape. The concrete and glass create a nice contrast and together with the rocky formations form one of the most intriguing house facades we’ve seen lately. Even though the exterior could lead one to believe this residence has a modern indoor design, the furniture elements come to negate this first impression. The mix of vintage and natural details creates highly original arrangements.- via BTC [...]

enda mc | Wednesday, November 17, 2010 surely it most be very hard to heat up with all that concrete and stone inside? it may have a warm climate but still,.

i could live there for the rest of my life!
Vladraconis | Wednesday, November 17, 2010 From outside it looks like an unearthed nuclear bunker. I fail to see the “blend with nature” in that. When first seeing it I expected too see skeletons and gas masks and huge iron tables indise. The interior is indeed really nice though.
danleik | Wednesday, November 17, 2010 And if we’re ever invaded by Japan (or heaven forbid, China), its a ready made pillbox.
Maricris of Zensible Mama | Wednesday, November 17, 2010 I think the house would have looked more appealing if the shape of the house was not straight-up square-ish with solid lines. It didn’t really blend too well, rather it stood out. But love the interiors!
