RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Completed in 2018, Chalet M is a tiny, minimalist cabin designed by São Paulo-based architect Silvia Acar Arquitetura for a secluded woodland site in São Lourenço da Serra, Brazil. The 270-square-foot structure was created as a peaceful retreat for its owners to reconnect with nature. Due to the challenging, remote terrain and lack of vehicle access, all building materials were selected to be lightweight and were carried to the site by hand, ensuring the cabin has a minimal impact on the environment. The cabin was elevated off the ground on six cylindrical concrete columns, allowing it to rest lightly on the forest floor. The exterior is comprised of a massive hardwood structure covered with OSB plywood, a Tyvek air and water barrier, and corrugated metal sheets for the outer layer. Its dark exterior helps the structure blend seamlessly into the lush surrounding forest. A floor-to-ceiling glass facade is the focal point of the design and includes sliding glass panels that open onto a wooden deck. This feature visually and physically connects the interior with the landscape, which includes a lake and mountain views. Inside, the cabin's material palette consists of thermoacoustic insulation and light-toned paricá plywood for the walls, ceiling, and built-in furniture. A prefabricated fiberglass box base anchors the sleeping and storage area. The custom-built furnishings and compact design provide a cohesive, multifunctional space for sleeping, cooking, and simply enjoying the natural surroundings.

COMMERCIAL | Office | The project for a new glass gallery along Via Mazzini in the center of Perugia, covered by the Energy Roof, creates the entry point to the underground archaeological passage that connects the city center with the MiniMetro station Pincetto. A new public space and attractor takes shape. Its history, dynamic circulation flows, and urban liveliness defines the place.The paradigmatic design of the Energy Roof creates a distinctive and highly recognizable icon for the city, and a statement for aesthetic sustainability, corresponding with the ancient buildings of Via Mazzini. It marks the entrance to the underground archaeological passage leading through the history of Perugia. The underground passage is not only a shortcut between the city center and the arrival point of the MiniMetro station Pincetto, but also an exhibition space. Historical documents show the existence of the old Etruscan city wall in the area below Piazza Giacomo Matteotti which Coop Himmelb(l)au proposes to excavate as part of an underground public gallery space exhibiting the history of Perugia. Controlled views and look-out points make orientation easy. Openings in the ground of the Piazza Giacomo Matteotti visually connect the underground passage with the Energy Roof. The roof design is driven by the generation of energy for the city, and inspired by the shape of a propeller. While the orientation of the west wing is optimized in relation to solar radiation, the east wing captures wind. The roof consists of three layers: the energy-generating top layer, the structural layer in the middle, and a bottom layer composed of laminated glazing and translucent pneumatic cushions. The top layer includes transparent photovoltaic cells to generate electricity and shade. The orientation of the individual cells is generated and optimized by a computer- operated script. Furthermore, five wind turbines that are placed inside the structural layer are generating additional energy. Both the roof and the underground passage are energy self-sufficient. During the design process of the energy roof, a special focus has been put on using photovoltaic cells as functional and aesthetic elements. To maintain visual connections to the surroundings, we propose to use frameless glass elements with integrated transparent photovoltaic cells for the top layer of the roof. Shading, energy generation and architectural integration are combined into one element. The chosen geometry of the panels follows the overall shape of the Energy Roof, and curved lines made of photovoltaic cells are created. The photovoltaic elements are peeling off the surface and tilted towards the sun where the roof area is oriented to the North East. The resulting gaps are closed by passive glass panels which appear similar to the active panels. Considering the technological advances in 2009, this installation creates a photovoltaic energy generator with a performance of around 73 kWp. The annual output of 100 MWh provides a major contribution to environmentally friendly generation of energy. With the wind turbines and an additional performance of around 25 kWp a peak performance of around 100KWp is reached. Structural description – Preliminary The roof consists of three layers with the structural layer in the middle. The other two layers are the energy-generating top layer and the glazed bottom layer. In the summer, the east wing of the rotor blade-shaped roof captures wind, thus providing ventilation for cooling. The structure, therefore, has to be sufficiently open to drive the fresh air to the street level from above. The roof structure is approximately 80 meters long and supported by a tripod in the center. There are ten members connecting the roof structure to the tripod. It is about 16 meters wide at both ends while in the middle part, around the supporting points, the roof slims. The geometry of the structure is determined by crossed planes that are arrayed in a longitudinal direction. The intersection of the planes and the geometry of the ​“propeller” defines the perimeter of the load-bearing structure. To provide sufficient ventilation and reduce the self-weight of the structure, holes are cut out of the planes in a way that the remaining areas are connected and perform as a rigid and optimized composition. These connected planes consist of single beams and act as trusses. There are four, approximately 80-meter-long primary frames spanning from one end to the other. An additional six frames on either side stiffen the structure. The main and the secondary trusses are connected by perpendicular frames. If the trusses are covered, the air ventilates through the openings located in the primary and secondary frames. To avoid tilting or rotating around the tripod, the construction is stabilized by tension bars on both sides. These are placed within the area of the streets and therefore avoid introducing any loads to the historical buildings. | https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9756fd_2dd11ec58c5344178d0108fec4ae27dc~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_1800,h_1269,al_c,q_90/Energy%20Roof%20Perugia%20(1).jpg 1/0 Private Public Pin Pin 0 x Appreciators 0 3D models Product 2.9K Views 0 Appreciated Appreciate Please login to appreciate Energy Roof Perugia Via del Mezzanino, 06132 Perugia PG, Italy coop-himmelblau.at Source: Published on Oct 3, 2023 by: Civil Engineer Rosa Garcia Premium Member More Buildings from Italy Facts: Up Up Architecture Office Coop Himmelb(l)au Austria Category: COMMERCIAL Office Project Type: Post Type: Building Country: Italy k18.pictures Photographers: Architects: Coop Himmelb(l)au Area: 600 m² Year: City: Perugia Construction: Client Università degli Sudi di Perugia, Description: the architects Text description by The project for a new glass gallery along Via Mazzini in the center of Perugia, covered by the Energy Roof, creates the entry point to the underground archaeological passage that connects the city center with the MiniMetro station Pincetto.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Inspired by a need to balance modern life with regular immersion in nature, the Find Sanctuary cabins offer a retreat experience designed for both remote work and leisure. The pilot cabin, which was first launched and tested in California before being offered for sale, was manufactured by the Canadian company Drop Structures, with interiors designed by Narrative Design Studio. Instead of an "off-grid" solution for a crisis, the Find Sanctuary model is a preventative wellness tool aimed at incorporating regular, holistic connections with nature into a busy, modern lifestyle. The pilot cabin features a 323-square-foot floor plan and is equipped with modern comforts, including a California king-sized bed, a rain shower, a fully equipped kitchen, and an air conditioning/heating unit. The interior is finished with Baltic birch, chosen for its aesthetic, warmth, and strength, and features matte-black tile work and cabinetry for a modern, textured look. The exterior is clad in vertical grain Douglas fir, while black-painted metal frames expansive windows that capture views of the surrounding natural landscape, much like "a landscape painting". The cabin is also equipped with a panoramic desk for remote work, a breakfast bar, and a sleeping loft situated above the bathroom, which also has a skylight. A fold-out counter with stools and a push-out awning window further enhances the connection between the indoor space and the outdoors. The project has ambitions beyond individual rentals, with the founders exploring a "work-from-the-woods" employee benefits program that would allow companies to book cabins for their employees.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Completed in 2021, the Lipno Lakeside Cabin is a 118-square-meter retreat located in the Bohemian Forest near Lipno Lake in the Czech Republic. Designed by the Lyon-based firm Les Archinautes, the cabin was built in place of a previous wooden structure and serves as a base for mountain sports enthusiasts. The design reinterprets principles of local Bohemian Forest architecture, featuring a compact, gabled shape and a rectangular floor plan. The architects placed great emphasis on connecting the cabin with its natural surroundings. The living space centers around a large, square, gabled window that frames views of the lake and the two mountain peaks behind it. Inside, the building's exposed cross-laminated timber (CLT) panel structure creates a warm, cozy atmosphere, bringing the scent, color, and feel of the forest indoors. The exposed wood was treated with hard wax oil with a UV filter to preserve its color over time. The cabin's thoughtful design accommodates both functionality and connection to nature. The ground floor includes a small room, bathroom, laundry room, and a sauna, with additional storage for sports equipment. An attic level features two bedrooms with circular windows, and another bathroom and pantry. The cabin is wrapped by a wooden terrace that is sheltered by the roof's overhang, providing flexible outdoor spaces for relaxing and storage. The construction utilized sustainable methods and local materials, with the wood-intensive build sequestering more CO2 than was produced.

RESIDENTIAL | Container Home | Elo Studio is a compact, 15-square-meter container home designed by the São Paulo-based architecture and interior practice Ticiane Lima Arquitetura & Interiores. Completed in 2020 as a prototype for the Janelas CASACOR 2020 exhibition, the project was conceived as a response to the post-pandemic context, reflecting on how living spaces could be rethought for well-being. It was inspired by the artwork "elo" by Ricardo Bueno, which joins brass and delicate blown glass, and the studio sought to emulate the artwork's concept of inhabiting a fragile yet supportive space. The prototype was showcased in a landscape setting in São Paulo, featuring large window openings that connect the minimalist interior with nature. The design incorporates Scandinavian influences, utilizing light-toned wood and focusing on multifunctional spaces. To maximize the small area, the interior includes a kitchen, an office, a bedroom, and a bathroom, with distinct areas created through wooden screens and contrasting materials. The house also emphasizes sustainability, featuring a green roof designed by landscaper Flávio Abílio and a solar panel system for energy.

RESIDENTIAL | Tiny House | Situated only 20 minutes away from the owner's apartment in Dresden, the garden house consists of two tiny houses, each with an area of approximately 28-35 square meters  (301-376 square feet). The main structure features a living room with a kitchen, designed to evoke a sense of timelessness. To achieve this, numerous NOS (new old stock) parts were incorporated, including parquet flooring, terrazzo tiles, and bricks for the chimney wall, giving it a vintage appeal. Furnishings were selected for their lightweight aesthetic, featuring iconic pieces such as the Pulkka chair by Ilmari Lappalainen and wire chairs by Charles and Ray Eames.

RESIDENTIAL | House | Having recently graduated from university, full of youthful energy and optimism, two college buddies pooled their money to embark on an adventure that wouldn’t fully come to fruition until many years later. They had scraped together just enough cash to purchase a breathtaking plot of land cradled on three sides by the largest national monument in the U.S., Utah’s Grand Staircase-Escalante. Here, they found paradise. Many camping trips, cocktails, and fond memories later, with retirement clearly in sight, the now fast friends decided to take their little slice of heaven to the next level. They turned to Imbue Design to help complete their decades-old vision. Together, they crafted a modest desert dwelling where the owners could put up their feet and drink in the profound stillness that saturates the desert landscape. The main priority was obvious – it needed to respect the essence of this special place and nurture the act of living simply within it. It also needed to be constructed with extreme care so as to disrupt the land as little as possible. To that end, the structure gently rests near the base of a bluff, at the seam where rock and vegetation meet. This helps minimize the visual impact from afar while maintaining spectacular views on the interior. Using rugged materials that reflect the desert fabric (corten steel, split-face concrete block, and cedar), the structure naturally blends in and ages with its surroundings. The simple form (two volumes capped by shed roofs, married by clerestory windows) is understated yet striking, ushering in views, light, and breezes from the desert panorama. Outdoor spaces flank every side of the structure – the living room spilling out onto a floating observation deck overlooking the distant view, the kitchen opening out onto a patio carved directly into the sandstone, and the bedrooms sharing an elevated outdoor tub for bathing under the stars. Located miles from the nearest utilities, the cabin was designed to be completely off-grid and self-sustaining. A detached photovoltaic array provides energy, a well provides water, and a septic field provides sanitation. To withstand the harsh desert climate and its drastic temperature swings, the retreat employs several passive energy strategies, including calculated overhangs for shading, thermal mass as a heat sink, and strategically placed operable windows for cross-ventilation cooling. Further assisting climatic considerations, the home is constructed with a super-tight, super-insulated thermal envelope and high-performing windows.

Fresh out of architecture grad school and anxious to work, we were immediately disillusioned by the amount of soulless architecture being produced in Salt Lake City. Rather than following the traditional architecture career path at a large firm, working on someone else's grocery store bathroom design, we decided to do our own thing. We founded Imbue Design on four principles: 1. refuse to do work we aren't fully in love with, 2. every project we take on will be one we can proudly show off in our portfolio, 3. architecture must have real meaning without being stuffy or esoteric, 4. never compromise principle #1 . Since 2008 we've been sitting at the same ten foot desk rubbing elbows and doing what we love ― imbuing architecture with meaning.

RESIDENTIAL | House | Vipp Cold Hawaii is a contemporary guesthouse in Thy National Park, Denmark, designed by the local architect studio Hahn Lavsen. The project, which opened in 2024, involved transforming a historic early 1900s fisherman's cottage on a secluded 9,900-square-meter plot into a bookable retreat for surfers and nature lovers. While its silhouette hints at the traditional cottages of the area, the new structure features minimalist geometric forms and a restrained material palette. To create a robust yet understated structure that could withstand the coastal elements, Hahn Lavsen chose to work with a palette of just five materials, processed as little as possible. These include whitewashed aerated concrete walls for insulation, a roof of untreated Douglas fir heartwood designed to age gracefully, and classic oak stable doors that allow for natural ventilation and echo the area's agricultural past. Inside, the floors are exposed brick laid in sand, a textural reference to the nearby sandy beaches. The 185-square-meter guesthouse features a spacious, open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, along with three double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Inside, the interior design by Julie Cloos Mølsgaard complements the minimalist architecture with a calm, neutral color palette and furnishings from Vipp. The heart of the home is a Vipp V3 kitchen, and large windows throughout frame expansive, panoramic views of the national park and the North Sea.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Located in a rainforest near the city of La Unión in southern Chile, the 3x3 Retreat is a 15-square-meter minimalist cabin designed by Estudio Diagonal. Completed in 2020, the small house is named for its 3-by-3-meter floor plan, which emphasizes a "radical geometry" in contrast with the organic nature of its surroundings. The retreat was strategically placed on a slope overlooking the Radimadi river, providing inhabitants with picturesque views and the calming sound of the running water. The cabin's program is structured in what the architects describe as "three acts". The journey begins on the ground-level terrace, which is the same size as the cabin itself, and serves as an intermediary space between the forest and the interior. The first floor, or "day floor," contains a combined kitchen, dining, and living area. A large, double-height window on the front provides a stunning view of the rainforest, making it a perfect spot to observe the winter rains while enjoying a coffee by the wood stove. The second floor, or "private floor," is reached by a ladder to save space and enhance privacy. This level houses the sleeping area and a bathroom. Construction prioritized both budget and sustainability, using standard, pre-dimensioned pine wood and leveraging local labor and traditional building techniques. The structural framework is left exposed on the interior, celebrating the construction process. This deliberate approach to materiality and form creates a simple yet lofty space, with its 4.8-meter double-height window adding an exaggerated sense of verticality. The resulting retreat is an intentional, remote oasis designed for disconnection and a deeper connection with the surrounding rainforest.

RESIDENTIAL | House | The Hempcrete House is a compact, sustainable off-grid dwelling designed by Altereco Design and completed in 2023. Located in the alpine-adjacent town of Lyonville, Central Victoria, Australia, the house serves as a prototype for energy-efficient living using hempcrete, a carbon-negative material. The house embraces a "just enough" design philosophy with a small 75-square-meter footprint. This provides a functional and beautiful living space that emphasizes elegant simplicity. The main construction material consists of 300mm-thick walls of hempcrete (a mix of hemp hurd, lime, and water). The hempcrete provides excellent thermal insulation, resists fire, mold, and pests, and offers a natural, earthy texture. The home is oriented to the north to maximize solar gain during the cold winters. Wide eaves are used to shade the interior from the sun during the summer. Polished concrete floors and internal hempcrete walls absorb and release heat to help regulate the internal temperature. Natural ventilation: Operable clerestory windows create a "chimney effect" to naturally cool and ventilate the home in summer. The floor plan includes an airlock entry, bathroom, kitchen, and open-plan living/dining area on the ground floor. A mezzanine level accommodates the bedroom. Climate control: Despite experiencing sub-zero temperatures, the home can maintain a comfortable indoor temperature of 20°C (68°F) without using additional heating. Sustainability and performance The all-electric home is powered by a 5.2kW solar PV system located on an adjacent shed. A rainwater harvesting and filtration system collects water in large repurposed wine vats. The wastewater is treated with a biological worm farm system. The hemp used in construction sequesters carbon from the atmosphere during its growth. When combined with lime, the material continues to harden and sequester carbon throughout the building's lifespan. The project minimized waste through careful planning and by using reclaimed materials. Only two small trailer loads of waste went to a landfill. Reclaimed Messmate timber was used for the upstairs flooring, shelving, kitchen cupboards, and other trim.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Completed in 2013, Ermitage is a small wooden cabin designed by the Paris-based architecture studio SEPTEMBRE. The 20-square-meter structure is situated on the remote island of Trossö, off the west coast of Sweden, and was commissioned by a private client who spends summers there. As there are no roads on the island, all materials for the cabin were transported by boat and carried by hand. The cabin's design is minimalist and functional, created as a secluded retreat with a focus on its natural surroundings. The brief from the client was for "a room with a view of the sea," and the design delivers on this with two large windows framing the distinctive, windswept landscape of the ocean on one side and pine trees on the other. A large sliding glass door effectively doubles the living area when opened, blurring the line between indoors and outdoors. The cabin was constructed with minimal impact on the environment, raised off the ground to sit lightly on the plot. Its exterior features Swedish spruce, painted with a matte black finish, a color choice that references the vernacular architecture of local fishing cabins. The interior has a more natural feel, with Swedish spruce flooring and plywood-clad walls and ceilings. The pitched roof provides a generous internal volume, and the compact space includes a sauna and a living/bedroom area for two people.

RESIDENTIAL | House | Situated among the grassy dunes and scenic hills of Vejby, Denmark, the Heatherhill Beach House is a 232-square-meter modern retreat designed by Norm Architects. The Copenhagen-based firm reimagined the traditional Danish summerhouse, drawing on regional architectural traditions while infusing them with contemporary elements. Built on the footprint of a preexisting house to minimize disruption to the landscape, the new structure respects its tranquil seaside location while offering a serene sanctuary for a family from the city. The design is composed of two interlocking gabled volumes, arranged to create a sense of dynamic flow and to frame stunning views of the beach and the Kattegat strait. A boardwalk flanked by wooden columns and landscaping leads visitors toward the central entrance and a private atrium, which provides a secluded outdoor space. The exterior is clad in cedar wood, chosen for its ability to weather gracefully over time and blend with the natural surroundings. A green sedum roof, coated with various plant species, changes color with the seasons, further integrating the house with the heather-covered hills. Inside, a light, tone-on-tone material palette creates an airy and open feel that bathes the interior in soft, diffused light. Natural Douglas fir planks from Dinesen cover the floors and line the walls and ceilings, creating a tactile connection to nature and a sense of warmth. In the living spaces, brick flooring pays homage to Danish mid-century modern residential design. A sunken living area leads to the minimalist kitchen, anchored by a silver travertine island. Custom built-in storage is seamlessly integrated throughout the house to maintain a clean, clutter-free environment. The home's two bathrooms also emphasize a connection to nature through framed views and the use of natural materials. One bathroom features an outdoor shower area enclosed by the same cedar that clads the exterior, allowing inhabitants to immerse themselves in their natural surroundings.
