  • Half-Tree House | Jacobschang Architecture | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | The Half-Tree House, designed by Jacobschang Architecture, is a 360-square-foot, off-grid cabin located on a remote, 60-acre property in a second-growth forest in Sullivan County, upstate New York. Built on a budget of just $20,000, the residence was constructed entirely by its owners and a team of friends in the "New England barn-raising" spirit. The house features a design that minimizes its impact on the steep, wooded site, creating the illusion that it floats among the trees. To achieve this "floating" effect, the structure uses a hybrid anchoring system. The upslope side of the cabin is supported by standard concrete footings, while the other side is suspended from two existing trees using a specialized treehouse fastener system called Garnier Limbs. This approach not only saved money by avoiding expensive foundations and retaining walls but also minimized site disturbance. The aesthetic of the Half-Tree House is characterized by a strong contrast between its exterior and interior. The exterior is clad with timber milled from Eastern Pines that were felled on the property. This wood was then treated with traditional Scandinavian pine tar, giving the cabin a dark, weather-resistant facade that blends into the forest. Inside, the walls and ceiling are painted white, and the floor is sealed with a clear, matte coat, creating a bright and minimalist space. The single-room interior is flooded with natural light and air via three large, 8-by-8-foot steel-tube pivot doors that also feature dual-insulated glass. For the colder New York winters, the space is heated by an efficient Jotul wood stove. The cabin has no piped water or electricity, with power coming from a portable generator if needed, reinforcing its identity as a remote and self-reliant getaway.

  • The Olive Tree House | Eva Sopeoglou | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | House | Situated in an olive grove in Halkidiki, Greece, The Olive Tree House is a 21-square-meter prefabricated summer house designed by Eva Sopeoglou Architecture and completed in 2016. The project was conceived as a low-maintenance, eco-conscious weekend retreat for its client, offering stunning views of the sea and the monasteries of Mount Athos. The design stands out for its creative use of a perforated, olive-green metallic envelope, which wraps around the structure and is inspired by the dappled shade of olive trees. This innovative cladding, developed in collaboration with metal fabricator METALSO, uses a CNC punching machine to create a textile-like pattern with leaf-shaped perforations. As the sun moves, this envelope fills the interior with a dynamic play of light and shadow, blurring the line between inside and outside. The house's rectangular, 3-by-7-meter plan is oriented to the cardinal points, a strategic placement that maximizes shading, natural ventilation, and views. A thin corridor connects the small interior rooms, which include a kitchen and bedroom, and is aligned with the surrounding olive trees. The building's orientation allows each room to have its own character based on the quality and intensity of its shadows, with colorful morning light on the east side and dramatic midday effects from the south. Full-height sliding metal doors allow the internal spaces to open up completely to the landscape, facilitating semi-indoor and outdoor living. To ensure interior comfort, the design relies on natural ventilation, including a sloped roof that helps extract hot air. The prefabricated nature of the components allows the house to be dismantled at any time, leaving a minimal environmental footprint.

Completed in 2018, the 571-square-foot project offers a solution for multigenerational living in cities with limited housing options, providing a safe, accessible, and private home for an aging family member. The project was designed with both immediate and future needs in mind. To accommodate the decreased mobility of the elderly family member, the entire living area was designed on a single level. The layout flows seamlessly from the entry and kitchen to the bedroom and bathroom. To prevent the small space from feeling cramped, the design incorporates a number of strategies to increase the perception of volume. Exposed rafters emphasize the high ceilings, and strategically placed skylights and windows flood the While the design is currently optimized for a single occupant, the architects considered its long-term potential. The lofted area above the bathroom, currently used for storage, could be converted into an office, a sleeping space, or a creative studio in the future. This adaptability future-proofs the investment and offers flexible housing options for the family. The architects creatively worked with the site's natural six-foot slope, building the Granny Pad into the hill. This allowed for the inclusion of a lofted space and a private back deck connecting to the unit. The Granny Pad is a thoughtful and functional conversion that makes the most of its small footprint. The garage door was removed and the original garage structure now serves as the entry, kitchen, and sitting room. The floor plan places the private areas—the bedroom, bathroom, and laundry—at the rear of the unit. A small, secluded deck and garden area provides a private outdoor retreat for the resident.

Completed in 2024, the house is a contemporary interpretation of a traditional wooden cabin. Its minimalist footprint and design focus on reducing its impact on the site's unique trees and rocks. The home's spatial experience is characterized by a deliberate alternation between open and sheltered areas. The main living area features extensive glazing, stretching toward the forest and opening onto a terrace that extends the interior outward. The house's location allows the seasonal foliage to either warm the interior with sunlight or cool it by filtering the light. Functional elements such as the kitchen, storage, and mechanical systems are integrated into a central block of furniture, optimizing function while minimizing the built area and concealing conduits for a cleaner aesthetic. A low-ceilinged threshold marks the transition to the private night zone, which includes two bedrooms flanking a central block of water features. The project's material strategy emphasizes a more economical and frugal use of wood compared to glued laminated timber. It celebrates the precision of the assemblies and the beauty of raw materials. This approach highlights an architecture that is contextually rooted, humble, and poetic, and demonstrates a deep respect for Quebec's natural environment and modern issues of sustainability.

  • Sommerhaus Piu | Patrick Frey, Björn Götte | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | Prefabricated | German industrial designer Patrick Frey and architect Björn Götte collaborated on the Sommerhaus Piu, a prefabricated wooden holiday home completed in 2011. Inspired by Scandinavian summerhouse culture, the design is a modern take on the traditional wilderness retreat, intended to be a versatile space for young families, independent study, or a serene home for retirees. The name Piu, meaning "more" in Italian, reflects the home's ability to offer a rich experience in a compact form. The prefab structure is delivered to the site and can be assembled in a single day. The exterior is defined by elegant, horizontally-placed strips of wood, complemented by charcoal-colored edging on the slightly pitched shed roof, and a covered veranda that wraps around the house. A version of the design, measuring 65 square meters, features two bedrooms, with larger and smaller models also available. To maximize interaction with the outdoors, the living and dining areas feature large, full-height sliding glass doors that open to a deck, blurring the boundary between the interior and the surrounding landscape. Conversely, the bedroom areas are protected from direct sunlight with smaller windows for privacy. The interior boasts a simple and functional layout, with a service core containing the kitchen and bathroom at the center, which minimizes hallway space and emphasizes the open living area. A large roof overhang provides shelter, creating an interesting play of shadows on the larch wood facade throughout the day.

  • Altar Ninho Cabin | Natureza Urbana | ZHIG

    HOSPITALITY | Cabin | Situated at the Fazenda Pedra Alta farm in Joanópolis, Brazil, the Altar Ninho Cabin by Natureza Urbana is an elevated, sustainable, and compact retreat designed for deep immersion in nature. Completed in July 2023, the 20-square-meter treehouse-style cabin is part of Altar's broader initiative to create decentralized hotels, offering a glamping experience that uses technology to promote sustainable hospitality. The cabin was constructed with a prefabricated metallic structure to minimize environmental impact and reduce on-site construction time. Elevated on metal pillars to a height of up to four meters, the structure's off-the-ground position reduces its footprint on the landscape, preserves the natural topography, and gives guests expansive views over the surrounding Atlantic Forest and the Joanópolis Reservoir. Inside, the living, kitchen, and bedroom spaces are integrated into a single, light-filled environment, with a strategically placed large opening next to the queen-size bunk bed offering direct and immersive views of the reservoir. The bathroom is illuminated by a zenithal opening, providing views of the sky and treetops from within. The interior and exterior spaces are connected by a generous natural wood deck, where guests can enjoy a leisurely area with furniture, a shower, a barbecue grill, and a space for a bonfire. The project's design prioritizes a rational and sophisticated geometry, with a simple yet elegant aesthetic that seamlessly integrates with the forest environment. A 2022 collaboration with Tok&Stok, which included a line of furniture and decorative items designed by Natureza Urbana, informed the cabin's sustainable ethos.

Elevated on metal pillars to a height of up to four meters, the structure's off-the-ground position reduces its footprint on the landscape, preserves the natural topography, and gives guests expansive views over the surrounding Atlantic Forest and the Joanópolis Reservoir. Inside, the living, kitchen, and bedroom spaces are integrated into a single, light-filled environment, with a strategically placed large opening next to the queen-size bunk bed offering direct and immersive views of the reservoir. The bathroom is illuminated by a zenithal opening, providing views of the sky and treetops from within. The interior and exterior spaces are connected by a generous natural wood deck, where guests can enjoy a leisurely area with furniture, a shower, a barbecue grill, and a space for a bonfire. The project's design prioritizes a rational and sophisticated geometry, with a simple yet elegant aesthetic that seamlessly integrates with the forest environment. A 2022 collaboration with Tok&Stok, which included a line of furniture and decorative items designed by Natureza Urbana, informed the cabin's sustainable ethos.

Situated on a slope inside the Pululahua Geobotanical Reserve, the project's main focus was to utilize natural and recycled materials to create a dwelling that would exist in harmony with its surroundings. The house's location provides expansive views of the crater, with vistas of the Chivo and Pondoña hills visible at sunset. The construction of the house started with a lightweight, braced wooden structure built on a concrete slab and a rear retaining wall. The walls were then filled using a technique of rammed and compacted earth mixed with hay bales, a system the architects referred to as "rammed earth with lost formwork". This creates sturdy, 12-centimeter-thick, earthquake-resistant walls. Recycled red pine staves were used to clad the exterior, while the roof was crafted from a lightweight layer of recycled triplex and asphalt resin. The interior of the house features a minimalist design with a focus on functionality and maximizing the connection to the outdoors. The large glass windows, a prominent feature of the design, allow for ample natural light and ventilation, while visually connecting the interior to the external landscape. The house was recognized for its use of sustainable and local materials, reflecting an eco-conscious approach to modern architecture.

  • Expo Cultural Park Greenhouse Garden | Delugan Meissl Associated Architects | ZHIG

    CULTURAL | Exhibition Center | The constant relation between antonyms is an inspiration to the new greenhouses in central Shanghai. The project is highly influenced by the presence of an historical reference: the old steel workshop, that once was an important catalyst of the city‘s industrial growth. This duality of old and new invokes the “Yin and Yang” ideology that is seen in the many different faces of the project. Tradition and Future, Industrial and Natural, Orthogonal and Organic, Static and Movement, Silence and Sound, Land and Water, Steel and Glass, synchronize into a gracious gesture, building up unique moments for the visitors. As an important symbol for the whole area, the Steel Workshop plays a vital role in combination with the new elements: it sets the tone and metric for the exhibition halls to be develop. The geometries grow organically in between and around the strict existing grid, performing a vivid and natural silhouette that respects and never touches the remaining framework. The multiple curvatures generated by the reaction from the Organic towards the Orthogonal and Static principles, provide a sinuous envelope that has all to do with nature. Different natural scenarios and climates are recreated inside the four single-glazed pavilions, forecasting a lively journey to the visitors. They can experience the canyons, sandy dunes and plants from the Desert Pavilion.

The project is highly influenced by the presence of an historical reference: the old steel workshop, that once was an important catalyst of the city‘s industrial growth. This duality of old and new invokes the “Yin and Yang” ideology that is seen in the many different faces of the project. Tradition and Future, Industrial and Natural, Orthogonal and Organic, Static and Movement, Silence and Sound, Land and Water, Steel and Glass, synchronize into a gracious gesture, building up unique moments for the visitors. As an important symbol for the whole area, the Steel Workshop plays a vital role in combination with the new elements: it sets the tone and metric for the exhibition halls to be develop. The geometries grow organically in between and around the strict existing grid, performing a vivid and natural silhouette that respects and never touches the remaining framework. The multiple curvatures generated by the reaction from the Organic towards the Orthogonal and Static principles, provide a sinuous envelope that has all to do with nature. Different natural scenarios and climates are recreated inside the four single-glazed pavilions, forecasting a lively journey to the visitors. They can experience the canyons, sandy dunes and plants from the Desert Pavilion. The swamps, waterfalls and tropical vegetation of the Natural Rainforest exhibition or the digital caves, cascades, fruit-trees and flowers of the Cloud Garden Hall. The roof is composed by circular windows in order to maximize the sunlight brought inside for the plants to grow. Like stars high above in the sky, the round windows work in perfect compliance with the organic geometry, not imposing any fixed directions.

  • Anfa Place | Foster + Partners | ZHIG

    URBAN | Mixed-use development | Anfa Place is a mixed-use development on the Atlantic coast to the west of Casablanca, close to the city’s affluent residential district of Anfa. The design takes advantage of the site’s magnificent natural setting – the 90,000-square-metre scheme extends the city to the shoreline by creating a new waterfront quarter, with places to live, offices, shops, cafes, leisure facilities and a five-star hotel. The spaces are carved into the cliff-side beneath the existing corniche, drawing the city towards the sea with a series of stepped terraces. An elevated promenade leads to a plaza with cafes, restaurants and bars and breaks down the barrier that previously existed between the road and the beach. Pedestrians access the apartments at roof-level, via gardens and bridges, and discreet ramps lead cars to underground parking. The buildings then extend along the corniche: there is a hotel, swimming pool, courtyard and spa facilities at the north eastern tip, and offices and a ‘business club’ – comprising shared conference facilities and office space, a pool and serviced apartments – towards the south west of the site. The centre of the development is arranged as seven ‘fingers’ containing 260 private apartments. These extend towards the ocean and are staggered to allow even those furthest from the beach to have sea views. Using local materials and construction techniques, the design responds to the architectural vernacular. The buildings are interspersed with private courtyards and trees, offering natural shade, while protecting against the strong sea breezes. The facades are designed to promote natural ventilation, control solar gain and exploit the cooling properties of thermal mass and, for privacy, the hotel balconies are shaded by delicate filigree screens. | https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9756fd_2788b583a03d4342ba62e0c0783a82c8~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_2000,h_1124,al_c,q_90/Anfa%20Place%20(1).jfif Please Wait Anfa Place (2).jfif Anfa Place (3).jfif Anfa Place (4).jfif 1/2 0 Product 5.6K Views 0 0 Pin Pin Private Public x Appreciators Appreciated Appreciate Please Log in Anfa Place 20000 Boulevard de la Corniche, Casablanca, Morocco Architects: Foster + Partners Foster + Partners Architecture Office United Kingdom Area: Year: City: Client: 140,000 m2 2014 Casablanca Inveravante Construction: Category: URBAN Project Type: Mixed-use development Post Type: Building Country: Morocco Photographers: the architects Description: Anfa Place is a mixed-use development on the Atlantic coast to the west of Casablanca, close to the city’s affluent residential district of Anfa.

Surrounded by pine forests, the residence is a contemporary interpretation of coastal living, respecting both the landscape and the area's architectural heritage. The house features a bi-level structure, with its lower level partially submerged into the bedrock, a technique that minimizes the visual impact of the building and anchors it firmly to the cliffside. The main living floor sits perched on the cliff top, offering expansive and direct views of the Baltic Sea. This elevated position allows the house to feel protected yet completely connected to the dramatic coastal environment. The exterior is clad in spruce and painted with traditional linseed-oil paint, a nod to the 19th-century buildings characteristic of the region. This choice of material and finish helps the villa blend into its surroundings and weathers gracefully over time. Inside, the design creates a strong visual link between the interior and the rugged, natural surroundings. Large glass walls frame the dramatic landscape, bringing the sea and forest views directly into the living spaces. The interior palette is a mix of white and wood, complemented by unique details that reference the natural world. For instance, leaf-green floor tiles at the entrance mirror the surrounding pine forests, while rocks from the site itself are incorporated into both the interior and exterior. The living, dining, and kitchen areas feature retro-style furniture, adding a touch of character and warmth to the contemporary shell. A flat roof over the submerged lower level is topped with a wooden deck and balustrades, creating a large, sheltered terrace accessible from the main living area. Above the upper floor, a gabled, zinc-covered roof provides robust protection against the area's often harsh wind and sea spray.

Mer Architects (Mer Arkkitehdit) is a Helsinki-based architecture studio known for designing buildings, spaces, and cities with a soul. The firm emphasizes quality, customization, and sustainability, seeing buildings as instruments to experience life and evoke memories. Co-founded in 2015 after a period of successful collaboration, the principals have extensive experience on projects ranging from summer houses to concert halls. Mer Architects is committed to environmental responsibility and has signed the Architects Declare Climate and Biodiversity Emergency declaration. Their work often incorporates natural materials and integrates with the surrounding landscape, as seen in projects like a villa in the seaside town of Hanko.

Surrounded by pine forests, the residence is a contemporary interpretation of coastal living, respecting both the landscape and the area's architectural heritage. The house features a bi-level structure, with its lower level partially submerged into the bedrock, a technique that minimizes the visual impact of the building and anchors it firmly to the cliffside. The main living floor sits perched on the cliff top, offering expansive and direct views of the Baltic Sea. This elevated position allows the house to feel protected yet completely connected to the dramatic coastal environment. The exterior is clad in spruce and painted with traditional linseed-oil paint, a nod to the 19th-century buildings characteristic of the region. This choice of material and finish helps the villa blend into its surroundings and weathers gracefully over time. Inside, the design creates a strong visual link between the interior and the rugged, natural surroundings. Large glass walls frame the dramatic landscape, bringing the sea and forest views directly into the living spaces. The interior palette is a mix of white and wood, complemented by unique details that reference the natural world. For instance, leaf-green floor tiles at the entrance mirror the surrounding pine forests, while rocks from the site itself are incorporated into both the interior and exterior. The living, dining, and kitchen areas feature retro-style furniture, adding a touch of character and warmth to the contemporary shell. A flat roof over the submerged lower level is topped with a wooden deck and balustrades, creating a large, sheltered terrace accessible from the main living area. Above the upper floor, a gabled, zinc-covered roof provides robust protection against the area's often harsh wind and sea spray.
