RESIDENTIAL | House | After a long search, our clients Cameron and Nicole found a property in the Bellbird Area of Blackburn, a classified National Trust area that has been protected against significant development since the 1960s. The Bellbird Area is a suburban bush setting, connected to the Blackburn Bush Corridor a critical habitat for birdlife and animals. The streetscapes retain a peaceful ambience with no footpaths, dominated by native vegetation. The site featured 41 existing established native trees, all of which were preserved in the creation of this home nestled amongst, and suffused by, the natural landscape. Cameron and Nicole’s brief to us was for a single storey family home that blended warmth and comfort, which was responsive to and respectful of the natural beauty of its bush surroundings. The wonderful tree canopies, textures, smells, sounds and colours of the site became the key drivers for the design. Internal sightlines at eye level were dominated by trunks and neighbouring properties, so we gave preference to abundant north-facing highlight windows which direct views up and out to the treetops above, flooding the interiors with daylight. Internally lined with Tasmanian Oak, these highlights developed into a synthesis of the external expression of the building, as angled roofs reach up to the tree canopies above. A light, natural material palette internally starts with a central spine of Australian limestone cladding, which wraps from the external entry into the heart of the house. External materials, such as black-oiled bandsawn Accoya, were selected to provide a contrasting backdrop to the grey-green of the eucalypts while mirroring bark like vertical texture. Centred around an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space which opens up to the landscape at the rear, the house is arranged to meet Cameron and Nicole’s brief for spaces to share with their two daughters, and spaces of solitude for all their individual pursuits – music, reading, study. This project is the result of a wonderful collaborative relationship between architect, builder and client. The building team treated each detail with craft and care, resulting in a meticulous outcome. Landscape designer Sam Cox created a whimsical and meandering garden featuring an abundance of native grasses. Cameron and Nicole have planted over 1400 indigenous plants and installed a pond to encourage wildlife back to the site. Bellbird House actively preserves this important area of natural habitat within suburbia. It is a house of activity and togetherness, a home where a family can connect with the natural environment and each other. Cam, Nicole and all of the project team are honoured and proud that Bellbird House has been shortlisted in the 2022 Victorian Architecture Awards, Residential Architecture Houses (New) category. Passive and active design principles are essential to the success of Bellbird House which achieves a 7.1 star rating. Passively, north-facing highlight windows flood the interiors with natural light and operable segments provide and exhausting effect. Considered sun-shading protects during summer while harnessing winter sun angles; vertical batten screens to west and east provide additional protection. The entry hall way provides a long view and connection from front to rear, and facilitates cross-flow ventilation, as do carefully placed smaller south and west windows. All double glazing is high-performance thermally-broken aluminium. External stud walls are 140mm to facilitate bulk R4.0 insulation batts and Crisp Projects also ensured the building was wrapped and sealed to minimise heat transfer. Cladding is sustainably-sourced oiled Accoya timber, with PEFC locally-sourced, sustainably-managed Silver Top Ash highlights and natural limestone cladding from WA. Internally, PEFC Tasmanian Oak lines the ceilings and solid recycled timber features in main joinery pieces, celebrating beauty in re-use of a natural material. Thermal mass principles act via the limestone cladding and insulated concrete slab with hydronic heating to main living areas, while Australian made 100% wool carpet adds warmth. A car charger is situated in the garage.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | The Jaguatirica Cabin, designed by Pitta Arquitetura and completed in 2021, is a minimalist and sustainable 65-square-meter retreat located in the Atlantic Forest of Ubatuba, Brazil. Situated within a vast forest reserve, the cabin was conceived as a "cocoon" to allow guests a serene and intimate connection with the lush, biodiverse natural surroundings. The design is a testament to low-impact construction, blending architectural form with the untouched landscape. To minimize its environmental footprint, the project utilized a lightweight, dry construction system that allowed for rapid assembly and produced very little material waste. The structure features a metal frame with wood-frame panels and a waterproof thermoplastic cover, all chosen to respect the natural topography of the site. Natural materials like wood, glass, and exposed concrete were selected to create a welcoming atmosphere that integrates seamlessly with the forest setting. The cabin's elevated position further reduces its impact on the ground. The cabin’s architecture is defined by its focus on natural light and expansive views of the forest. Large openings and sliding glass doors on the main facade invite the surrounding nature inside, creating an immersive, well-ventilated living space. A prominent 2.5-meter eave extends from the roof, providing shade from the sun and shelter from rain while still allowing ample natural light to enter. The interior is organized as a single, open-plan space that integrates the living room, bedroom, and kitchen without partitions, which enhances the feeling of spaciousness and reinforces the connection to the outdoors.

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.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | The Nisser Micro Cabin is a 26-square-meter residential prototype designed by Feste Landskap / Arkitektur and completed in 2017. It is located in Nissedal, a municipality in the Telemark region of Norway, on the banks of Lake Nisser. Commissioned by Smarte Hytter AS, a local cabin developer, the project was intended as a sustainable and compact alternative to the trend of large, luxurious holiday homes that are common in Norway. The architects' ultimate goal is to develop a floating version of the cabin, but due to local planning restrictions on Lake Nisser, the prototype was built on stilts on the shore. The design of the cabin maximizes the user's connection to the surrounding landscape. A large, glazed facade between the main living area and a covered terrace blurs the line between indoor and outdoor space, creating a seamless link to the lake and landscape. The exterior is clad in thermally treated pinewood, a sustainable and chemical-free material that gives the cabin a natural, integrated feel within its environment. This exterior cladding also has integrated gutters and downpipes, which creates clean, expressive facades. The compact, 26-square-meter floor plan includes a small mezzanine loft for sleeping, with a total capacity to accommodate up to seven people. The module is connected to electricity, water, and sewage via a flexible pipe that enters from beneath, a system designed to be compatible with a future floating version.

OFF-GRID ACCOMMODATION | Cabin | The Pod[e] Mulla Mulla is a luxurious, off-grid holiday cabin designed by A-HA Design Studio in collaboration with Scott Taylor, co-founder of the Pod[e] brand. Located on 300 acres of coastal bushland on the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia, the prototype combines high-end comfort with eco-conscious features to minimize its environmental footprint. The design process was deeply rooted in the site's unique characteristics. The design team camped on the coastal bushland to understand the site's essence, topography, prevailing winds, vistas, and soundscapes. The cabin's bold and distinct exterior changes color throughout the day with the shifting rhythms of the light. It features prismatic and champagne-colored panels, along with a mirrored skirt, which creates a captivating visual effect. Material palette: The interior and exterior material choices reference the native flora of the region, the Ironstone Mulla Mulla, a compact native plant with light, feathery blooms endemic to the Eyre Peninsula. The interior features a palette of soft pinks, natural timber, and brushed stainless steel. Dimensions: The cabin has a modest footprint, measuring 12 by 5 meters, with an additional 50 square meters of decking. Open and connected interior: Despite its small size, the design aims to maximize a sense of openness and connection to the landscape. Sustainability The cabin is self-sufficient and operates entirely off-grid. It is powered by solar panels. It is equipped with a rainwater catchment and filtration system. The design uses natural ventilation and strategically placed windows and doors to create a comfortable internal climate.

HOSPITALITY | Cabin | Elsewhere Cabin A is a 160-square-foot, off-grid prototype designed in 2018 by Seattle-based architect Sean O’Neill for Elsewhere, a vacation rental company near Georgetown, Texas. The tiny cabin was built on a trailer base to allow for off-grid functionality and occasional relocation. Its design was inspired by the traditional Texas porch, aiming to create a serene space for guests to disconnect from city life. This is achieved with a ten-foot folding glass wall that opens the entire living space, creating a large, open-air porch. The exterior is clad in charred cedar siding, a technique known as shou sugi ban, giving it a minimalist black finish that helps it blend into the natural surroundings. The interior features Chilean pine plywood for the walls, ceiling, and flooring, complemented by custom-made, space-efficient, and multi-functional furniture. A single surface can transition from a desk to a sofa to a kitchen counter. The sleeping loft is nestled beneath the pitched roof, while a small kitchen and a bathroom with a waterless toilet are also incorporated. For off-grid utilities, the cabin relies on solar panels for electricity and an onboard water tank for the shower and sink. Much of the exterior work and some furnishings were built by the client.

RESIDENTIAL | House | Designed by Helsinki-based Mer Arkkitehdit, the Andvik project is a modern villa thoughtfully integrated into the rugged, rocky terrain of Hanko, a historic Finnish seaside town. 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.

HOTEL | Prefabricated Cabin | LILELO, or Little Leisure Lodge, is an eco-hotel in Grazzano Badoglio, Italy, conceived by the Paris-based architecture practice Atelier LAVIT and completed in 2022. Located in the heart of Monferrato, a region known for its vineyards and woodland hills, the hotel consists of a cluster of four modular, eco-friendly cabins. The design is inspired by traditional haystacks, blending naturally with the rural landscape. The project was designed with a strong focus on sustainability and a minimal footprint. The cabins were largely prefabricated off-site, reducing construction time and on-site disruption. To adapt to the sloping terrain, the cabins are raised off the ground on slender pillars, minimizing their impact on the environment. The cabins feature a distinctive A-shaped roof with fully glazed triangular elevations, which also function as the load-bearing structure. This creates a strong visual identity while maximizing natural light and views. The cabins are constructed primarily from natural and eco-compatible materials. The exterior is clad in oil-treated larch, a material chosen for its durability and aging characteristics. The interior also features wood finishes throughout. The LILELO hotel comprises four cabins, each serving a specific function. Private suites: Three of the cabins are private guest suites, each with a continuous, open-plan interior. A deck at one end provides outdoor seating, leading to a sleeping area and a bathroom at the opposite end. Only the toilet is enclosed. Communal cabin: The fourth cabin serves as a common space. It features a large kitchen and a generous outdoor area with a table, intended as a gathering place for guests. The continuous interior layout and expansive windows create a seamless connection between the indoor spaces and the natural surroundings. The interior and furnishings are crafted from wood, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere that complements the cabins' natural setting.

Located in a spectacular landscape on the eastern plain of Corsica, France, the cabin was conceived to allow for full immersion in nature while maintaining comfort and protection. The name O_CASELLA is a play on the word "casella," which means "little box" or "shelter" in Corsican, reflecting the cabin's functional and minimalist nature. The design of O_CASELLA is based on two distinct, yet connected, modular volumes: a living module and a pergola. This structure addresses the demands of the warm Mediterranean climate by creating large, shaded areas for outdoor living. To minimize cost and environmental impact on the remote site, the entire cabin was prefabricated in a wood workshop. The modules were then transported fully assembled to the location, significantly reducing on-site construction time and disruption. The closed living module contains the kitchen, bathroom, and a flexible living/sleeping area. It provides framed views of the surrounding wild Corsican mountains and sea through large windows. The open-air pergola provides a ventilated and shaded space for outdoor relaxation, reading, or contemplating the landscape. A movable, mashrabiya-style shutter on a rail system allows occupants to regulate sunlight and air flow. The exterior structure and cladding are made from local Corsican larch (laricciu), a lightweight yet strong wood that contributes to the cabin's portability and durability. The interior walls and ceiling are lined with MDF wood, creating a cozy and protective atmosphere. A generous covered pergola extends the living space outdoors, with an outdoor shower providing an even more direct connection to nature. A steel beam on the façade serves a dual purpose: it hides the rail system for the sliding shutter panel and acts as a gutter for collecting rainwater. The movable mashrabiya panel offers passive cooling and sun protection. The modular system allows for flexibility in installation and configuration, showcasing a forward-thinking approach to sustainable architecture.

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 1/0 Private Public Pin Pin 0 x Appreciators 0 3D models Product 5.2K Views 0 Appreciated Appreciate Please login to appreciate Anfa Place 20000 Boulevard de la Corniche, Casablanca, Morocco fosterandpartners.com Source: Published on Oct 1, 2023 by: Civil Engineer Rosa Garcia Premium Member More Buildings from Morocco Facts: Up Up Architecture Office Foster + Partners United Kingdom Category: URBAN Mixed-use development Project Type: Post Type: Building Country: Morocco Photographers: Architects: Foster + Partners Area: 140,000 m2 Year: 2014 City: Casablanca Construction: Client Inveravante Description: the architects Text description by 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.

RETREATS | Cabin | In the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Gávea Arquitetos designed a series of retreats known as Zero Cabins. Completed in 2022, Cabana Zero is the prototype for 11 shelters built to serve a spiritual retreat program inspired by the Indigenous traditions of the Peruvian Amazon. The architects approached the project with a strong emphasis on low-impact construction, ensuring a minimal disturbance to the forest both during the process and in the project's long-term environmental presence. Constructed on challenging terrain, Cabana Zero is a modular wooden structure elevated from the ground. This design choice minimizes the alteration of the topography and simplifies the overall construction system. Reusing materials from an old shed on the site, the project features treated pine walls and avoids electricity and hot water. It also incorporates a dry toilet system, reflecting its off-grid, low-impact philosophy. The cabins are designed to be temporary, eventually meant to revert to the forest, mirroring the impermanent human occupation of the natural landscape. The aesthetic reflects a duality in how the cabin relates to its occupants and the surrounding environment. The interior features natural pine, contrasting with the exterior's black-stained wooden verandas. This creates a deliberate abstraction that immerses occupants directly into nature. Large openings allow for ample natural light and ventilation, reinforcing the connection between the interior and the exterior. In addition to the cabin itself, the project includes the restoration of native vegetation around the site and the creation of trails that allow access to specific areas of the forest without causing damage.

RESIDENTIAL | Guesthouse | Completed in 2023, the Garden Guesthouse by KFA arkitekter is a 30-square-meter Attefallshus located just outside Gothenburg, Sweden. This type of small, detached structure is a Swedish typology that does not require a full building permit, allowing homeowners to add additional space for purposes such as guesthouses, home offices, or rental units. Situated at the edge of a residential property, the guesthouse frames the garden between the main house and natural rock formations, creating a secluded and intimate space. The design is a thoughtful blend of Scandinavian minimalism and natural materials. The exterior is clad in untreated heart pine, nailed with dome-headed stainless steel nails, and left to naturally age and blend into its surroundings. The windows are made of oiled oak, and the roof and gutters are zinc, adding a durable and modern touch. The interior palette mirrors the exterior with a pine floor, a pine kitchen, and an oak countertop, creating a cohesive and minimalist aesthetic. The compact layout includes two rooms, a bathroom, and a loft accessed by a ladder, which provides additional sleeping or storage space. The bedroom faces south, while the living room and kitchen are oriented east and north, maximizing natural light throughout the day. The result is a versatile and inviting living space that functions as both a guesthouse for family and friends and a studio during the summer months.

PREFABRICATED | Cabin | H-eva is a prefabricated, self-sufficient cabin designed by Bordeaux-based firm A6A (Atelier 6 Architecture) and manufactured by My Little Loft in Sainte-Foy-la-Grande, France. The project is an exploration of micro-architecture that blends modern comfort with traditional materials, emphasizing a connection to the landscape and the awareness of daily needs. The cabin is manufactured in a workshop and transported to its final location on a flatbed truck, installed with a crane. This approach minimizes on-site impact and allows the cabin to be moved, leaving the land reversible for other uses. The exterior is clad in charred Douglas fir boards sourced from local, controlled forests. This shou sugi ban technique not only protects the wood from insects and weathering but also gives the cabin a deep black finish, reminiscent of traditional regional woodcutters' huts. Autonomous systems: H-eva is designed for self-sufficiency, with several integrated systems to reduce its reliance on external connections. Energy: A wood stove provides heating, while photovoltaic panels generate electricity. Water: Water is filtered through a micro wastewater treatment system integrated into the structure, and low-flow faucets minimize usage. Waste: The cabin utilizes a dry toilet system that operates without water waste or pollution. The interior offers a contrast between light and dark, with natural wood paneling. The design is open to the landscape, creating an immersive spatial experience. The modular design allows for elements to be connected to create larger living spaces. Various layouts and sizes, ranging from 16 to 38 m², are available to suit different uses and settings.
