- Small but Fine Off-grid Cabin | studio politaire | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Constructed by architecture and urban design students Timm Bergmann and Jonas Becker, who would later go on to found Studio Politaire, the "Small but Fine" Off-grid Cabin was completed in 2018 in a remote forest in Finland. The 280-square-foot structure was built on a modest budget of approximately $14,000, with the designers doing most of the work themselves. The off-grid cabin was designed as a simple and functional retreat to live in and reflect on self-reliance. Built on a rocky plot with a natural flat spot near a lake, the cabin’s design features four slightly offset rooms spread across a total floor space of 26.8 square meters, offering a different view of the surrounding landscape from each staggered window. The cabin's off-grid utilities include a water pump, a three-phase sewage system, and a hot water supply powered by solar energy and a wood-burning stove. To accommodate the cabin's location on swampy soil with no vehicular access, the designers first built a 650-foot-long elevated pathway to the nearest road. The foundation was built using concrete-filled steel pipes anchored into bedrock to ensure durability. The minimalist interior features wood-paneled walls and flooring, with plywood boards lining the ceilings. A wood-burning stove provides heat, while large windows allow natural light to flood the space and connect the occupants with nature. A small deck outside provides an open-air area for a tranquil retreat.

EXE STUDIO Mladenovac, Serbia 2008 Since Architecture Office 146.House in Divčibare by EXE STUDIO-Relja Ivanić (1).jpg The Divčibare Mountain Home, designed by Belgrade-based EXE STUDIO and completed in 2015, is an asymmetrical holiday residence located on the hillside of Mount Maljen in western Serbia. The 76-square-meter house was built into the slope to minimize its impact on the site, which, despite being overrun with pine trees, retains the character of an open field. The design is a study in contrasts, merging traditional mountain architecture with contemporary aesthetics through its distinctive dual-volume structure. The house is composed of two main sections, each defined by a different material and texture. One volume is clad in near-black timber shingles, referencing original mountain homes and housing the sheltered porch and entrance, as well as a bedroom above. The other volume features a smooth white ceramic surface and contains the combined living, dining, and kitchen area. A large picture window on the south side of the white volume creates a strong connection between the interior and the idyllic pine forest and hilly terrain outside. The interior maintains a minimalist aesthetic, allowing the focus to remain on the large window and the surrounding landscape. The design and construction process was constrained by a relatively low budget and the site's inaccessibility, which led the architects to create an architecture of simple, robust gestures using locally available materials like pine wood from nearby forests. The resulting structure, with its monochromatic and asymmetrical form, successfully blends with its natural surroundings while offering a modern, contemplative retreat for its inhabitants.

- Yatsugatake Annex | Takanori Ineyama Architects | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | Tiny Home | The Yatsugatake Annex is a 43-square-meter weekend residence in Hokuto, Japan, designed by Takanori Ineyama Architects and completed in 2017. It was built for a couple who primarily live in Tokyo but spend weekends and holidays in the mountainous Yamanashi prefecture, and the home is intended to be a comfortable secondary base for their family of five, including three children. The design is a clever response to the surroundings, where the site is relatively large but still located in an area with villas and residences. To achieve privacy while maintaining a connection to the environment, the architects designed the house to open or close to the surroundings, a strategy described as "closing with one wall". The house is L-shaped and wrapped with a light-toned wooden exterior that conceals the more private areas while creating an open central living area. The layout was designed to give new value to the site by properly placing different personality spaces, such as the living and dining areas, within an environment created by the "one wall". Inside, the home has a minimalist and warm aesthetic, featuring light-toned wooden walls and ceilings. A mezzanine level with an open, airy feel offers unique views and an elevated space for relaxation or play.

- Reflection of Mineral | Atelier Tekuto | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | Tiny House | Reflection of Mineral is a futuristic and abstract micro-home located in Tokyo, Japan, designed by Atelier Tekuto and completed in 2006. The project was a response to the client's desire for an exciting, volume-maximizing home with a covered garage on a small, irregularly shaped corner lot in a densely populated urban area. The design drew inspiration from the concepts of a "mineral" and "reflection." The multifaceted, polygonal shape was a direct result of maximizing the buildable volume within the confines of three different height restrictions. This process was likened to cutting a precious gemstone. The pristine white facade contrasts with the urban context, emphasizing its distinct geometric form. The "reflection" concept: Inside, the interplay of light and geometry creates a dynamic, fluid sense of space, expanding the perceived boundaries of the compact interior. Transparent and translucent surfaces, as well as mirrored finishes on the third-floor bathroom unit, induce visual reflection that changes as people move or as light shifts. Despite its small footprint (around 86 square meters across four levels, including a basement), the interior feels much more expansive due to the clever design. Strategic window placements, particularly on the corners, draw the eye along diagonals, increasing the sense of depth. The functional elements, such as the kitchen, counter shelves, and floors, contrast with the abstractness of the building's overall polyhedron shape. Reflective stainless steel in the bathroom and carefully considered interior appointments further the themes of mineral and reflection. A small plaza-like space on the ground floor, created by elevating the house with a piloti, provides a rare sense of openness in the tight urban setting.

Commissioned by the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria (RACV) and designed by Peter Maddison, the host of Grand Designs Australia, the tiny house toured Victoria to educate the public on green building practices. The home was awarded a Commendation for Sustainable Architecture at the AIA Victorian Architecture Awards in 2019. The design is a contemporary reinterpretation of the traditional gabled house, which was chosen as an iconic shape of home. To maximize space and create a dynamic, welcoming entrance, the home features bright yellow, hydraulically-operated panels that fold out to form a deck and sunshades, reminiscent of a box unfolding. The 18.75-square-meter structure is built on a durable steel frame, allowing it to be transported on the back of a truck, and can function entirely off-grid or connect to services. Sustainability is a core component of the RACV Tiny Home. It was constructed with a seven-layered wall and roof system that includes ""phase change"" insulation, making it 60% more energy-efficient than a standard Australian home. It also incorporates passive design principles and active systems like integrated solar panels and battery storage. Locally sourced materials were prioritized to reduce carbon miles, including charred timber boards for the exterior and radial sawn Victorian hardwood and cork flooring for the interior. The design also features smart technology, allowing for voice-activated control of various functions, from lighting and entertainment to security and energy monitoring. The interior space is cleverly organized with a main living area that combines the kitchen, sleeping, and living spaces, along with a separate bathroom. The design includes built-in furniture to maximize efficiency, such as a built-in bed and bench, a slide-out dining table, and a cargo net that serves as a playful loft for children.

Commissioned by the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria (RACV) and designed by Peter Maddison, the host of Grand Designs Australia, the tiny house toured Victoria to educate the public on green building practices. The home was awarded a Commendation for Sustainable Architecture at the AIA Victorian Architecture Awards in 2019. The design is a contemporary reinterpretation of the traditional gabled house, which was chosen as an iconic shape of home. To maximize space and create a dynamic, welcoming entrance, the home features bright yellow, hydraulically-operated panels that fold out to form a deck and sunshades, reminiscent of a box unfolding. The 18.75-square-meter structure is built on a durable steel frame, allowing it to be transported on the back of a truck, and can function entirely off-grid or connect to services. Sustainability is a core component of the RACV Tiny Home. It was constructed with a seven-layered wall and roof system that includes ""phase change"" insulation, making it 60% more energy-efficient than a standard Australian home. It also incorporates passive design principles and active systems like integrated solar panels and battery storage. Locally sourced materials were prioritized to reduce carbon miles, including charred timber boards for the exterior and radial sawn Victorian hardwood and cork flooring for the interior. The design also features smart technology, allowing for voice-activated control of various functions, from lighting and entertainment to security and energy monitoring. The interior space is cleverly organized with a main living area that combines the kitchen, sleeping, and living spaces, along with a separate bathroom. The design includes built-in furniture to maximize efficiency, such as a built-in bed and bench, a slide-out dining table, and a cargo net that serves as a playful loft for children.

- Simple House | Scapelab | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | House | The Simple House is a modern, prefabricated timber-frame home located in the scenic, rural landscape of Radovljica, Slovenia, and designed by the architectural firm Scapelab. Completed in 2006, the project offers a contemporary take on the traditional, archetypal Slovenian farmhouse. The house was designed to be cost-effective, energy-efficient, and low-maintenance, with a construction process that allowed for rapid on-site assembly The design is centered on a basic pitched-roof volume, but its cladding offers a unique, modern interpretation. The facade features a veil of horizontally oriented timber louvers on the north and south sides, which contrast with vertically oriented zinc panels that cover the roof and parts of the east and west elevations. While the house appears to lack traditional windows from a distance, the louvers and gaps in the timber cladding allow natural light and ventilation to filter into the interior while maintaining a sense of privacy. The design is interactive, allowing occupants to adapt the house to the weather and their mood. The interior and exterior spaces are functionally distributed in a "corridorless" design, with an open floor plan that flows naturally from one space to another. The building opens up onto terraces on both the northern and southern facades, allowing residents to pursue outdoor living depending on the weather; the southern terrace offers warmth on colder days, while the northern terrace provides shade during the summer. Sustainability is a key feature of the Simple House. The highly insulated envelope, combined with solar panels on the roof and a central heating plant, ensures low running costs and a reduced environmental footprint. The use of durable, low-maintenance materials like zinc and wood further contributes to the home's longevity and minimal upkeep needs.

- Hytte Grydalen | Trodahl Arkitekter | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Located in Grydalen, in Norway's Sirdal municipality, Hytte Grydalen is a 75-square-meter off-grid cabin designed by Trodahl Arkitekter. The elongated cabin, completed in 2018, is situated in a protected area without electricity or drainage, and its angular, ship-like form stands in stark contrast to the rounded landscape of the surrounding mountains. The cabin's design prioritizes a connection to nature and a focus on an unplugged, off-the-grid lifestyle. Its off-grid power is supplied by solar panels, providing lighting for the interior. The house is elongated, with a steep-pitched roofline that allows for a full ceiling height and a spacious, open feel within the main living area. The interior is dominated by wood, creating a warm, cozy atmosphere, and features a sleeping loft with an uninterrupted view of the surrounding landscape. Large windows, including glass walls in the living area, bring in natural light and blur the line between indoors and outdoors. The cabin also features an open fireplace for added warmth and ambiance.

- Hytte Imingfjell (The Hooded Cabin) | Arkitektvaerelset | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Perched at 1,125 meters (3,690 feet) above sea level in the mountainous Imingfjell region of Norway, "The Hooded Cabin" is a striking and robust weekend retreat designed by the Oslo-based architectural firm Arkitektværelset. Commissioned to create an efficient and resilient cabin, the firm responded to the site's challenging conditions and strict local building regulations by creating a design that is both practical and iconic. The central design challenge came from the high altitude, harsh weather, and strict local regulations, which dictate specific requirements for materials, roof pitch (22–27 degrees), and window sections. Rather than viewing these limitations as obstacles, head architect Grethe Løland used them as a source of creative inspiration, stating, "Limitations are the mother of all playful creativity". The cabin's defining characteristic is its large, protective hood-like roof, which shelters the entrance and the main facade from the elements. The roof is clad in ore pine paneling, which stands in geometric contrast to the main black-painted timber body of the cabin. The exterior features a mix of black and natural pine, creating a strong visual identity that stands out in the otherwise traditional landscape. The clean, angular lines give the cabin a modern, sculptural feel, even while adhering to strict traditional building codes. Large, sectioned windows on the front facade frame magnificent views of the surrounding lake and mountains, connecting the interior with the rugged landscape. Despite its rugged exterior, the interior of the 66-square-meter cabin (plus a 7-square-meter attic) is cozy and efficiently designed to accommodate up to 12 people. A warm, neutral palette of wood is used throughout the floors and walls, accented by touches of black. This creates a serene and inviting atmosphere. The cabin includes an open kitchen and dining area, a master bedroom, a bathroom, and a sauna that ingeniously doubles as a guest sleeping area. An additional attic space offers further sleeping accommodation for guests. Large glass sliding doors and corner windows enhance the feeling of space and bring the stunning outdoor scenery into the living areas.

- Banyan Treehouse | RPA (Rockefeller Partners Architects) | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | Studio | The Banyan Treehouse is a 172-square-foot accessory building located on a Brentwood hills estate in Los Angeles, designed by Rockefeller Partners Architects. The modern-day retreat was conceived as a surprise gift from a husband to his wife, an art museum patron, art collector, and philanthropist, to serve as a creative studio and lounge space. Perched 12 feet off the ground, the treehouse is situated in a back corner of the property and offers exceptional views of the Getty Center and downtown Los Angeles. The design is a clever interpretation of a childhood treehouse, reflecting the client's affinity for such a retreat while providing an adult environment. The project incorporates a live but fallen pine tree, with the structure hovering above it to suggest a delicate balance between the architecture and nature. A key feature is a glass viewport in the walnut floor, which symbolically connects the structure to the tree below, reminiscent of a classic treehouse hatch. Access is provided by a concrete stair that leads up to an open metal and wood plank stair, a modern interpretation of a treehouse ladder. The unique, angular plan was influenced by the tight site and setback requirements. The interior of the micro-house is equipped with modern amenities, including a toilet, running water, a daybed, and a small refrigerator. The space is wrapped in rich materials, such as walnut paneling and floors, mahogany windows, and ipe-wood ceilings and decks. Floor-to-ceiling mahogany windows and a glass clerestory provide abundant natural light and ventilation while framing views of the canyon and city. The exterior is clad in deep-oiled cedar siding for durability and beauty. A butterfly-shaped metal roof with a Kynar finish seemingly floats above the structure, supported by five angled steel columns. An outdoor shower, sculpted from concrete, is located below the treehouse.

Perched 12 feet off the ground, the treehouse is situated in a back corner of the property and offers exceptional views of the Getty Center and downtown Los Angeles. The design is a clever interpretation of a childhood treehouse, reflecting the client's affinity for such a retreat while providing an adult environment. The project incorporates a live but fallen pine tree, with the structure hovering above it to suggest a delicate balance between the architecture and nature. A key feature is a glass viewport in the walnut floor, which symbolically connects the structure to the tree below, reminiscent of a classic treehouse hatch. Access is provided by a concrete stair that leads up to an open metal and wood plank stair, a modern interpretation of a treehouse ladder. The unique, angular plan was influenced by the tight site and setback requirements. The interior of the micro-house is equipped with modern amenities, including a toilet, running water, a daybed, and a small refrigerator. The space is wrapped in rich materials, such as walnut paneling and floors, mahogany windows, and ipe-wood ceilings and decks. Floor-to-ceiling mahogany windows and a glass clerestory provide abundant natural light and ventilation while framing views of the canyon and city. The exterior is clad in deep-oiled cedar siding for durability and beauty. A butterfly-shaped metal roof with a Kynar finish seemingly floats above the structure, supported by five angled steel columns. An outdoor shower, sculpted from concrete, is located below the treehouse.

- Happycheap House | Tommy Carlsson Arkitektur | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | Modular House | Happycheap House is a prefabricated, modular, and affordable prototype home located in a suburb near Stockholm, Sweden, designed by Tommy Carlsson Arkitektur. Completed around 2014, the house was a response to a housing market that Carlsson saw as being dominated by expensive, aesthetically stagnant prefab villas. The 110-square-meter home features a geometric, asymmetrical volume with a roof of varying pitches, clad in corrugated galvanized iron to reduce costs. This angular form is mirrored inside with a series of angled plywood surfaces and spaces. The design is based on a modular frame system of self-supporting laminated plywood sandwich panels, which allows for fast and affordable factory construction. Inside, the house showcases the raw plywood material extensively, creating a warm and minimalist feel. An angular staircase connects the ground floor, which includes the living, dining, and kitchen areas, with the upper floor, which contains three bedrooms. One of Carlsson's goals was to question conventional living, challenging notions of necessary living space and promoting affordability. The modular construction and the ability to expand the living area as needed were also central to the design.

- House T | Katsutoshi Sasaki + Associates | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | House | Completed in 2017, the T House, also known as T noie, is a 102-square-meter family home located in Toyota, Japan, and designed by Katsutoshi Sasaki + Associates. The architects were inspired by both the human and urban scale, creating a structure with unusual proportions designed for both intimate comfort and spacious openness. The design is based on two different dimensional scales: a narrow width of 1.55 meters, which promotes a feeling of human closeness and coziness, and a soaring eight-meter ceiling, which creates a sense of openness and reflects the scale of the surrounding urban streetscape. These two scales coexist within the home, with different floors loosely connected to encourage movement and interaction. The interior is arranged across platforms that are staggered along a spiral staircase, allowing inhabitants to share the same space even when in different rooms. The house features a striking dark exterior clad in red cedar planks, giving it a minimalist and private appearance with few windows. In contrast, the interior is finished in light Falcata plywood, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. Natural light enters the house primarily through clerestory windows that wrap around the top of the walls, filtering soft light into the interior throughout the day. The T-shaped structure was developed with a unique joint pillar-and-beam system to create a new way of living within the traditional Japanese dimensional framework.

- Skatehouse 2 | Macu Bulgubure | ZHIG
RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Skatehouse 2, designed by Argentine architect Macu Bulgubure and completed in 2021, is an off-grid cabin built for a skateboarder in the wild wetlands of the Paraná River near Rosario, Argentina. Situated in a flood-prone area, the structure is elevated on stilts for protection from rising waters and to allow services to be delivered off-grid. The cabin's design cleverly integrates a large skate ramp, which was originally planned as a separate structure, into its exterior, forming a curved, elevated deck. Beyond its function as a skating area, this curve also serves a dual purpose by providing shade for the interior from the high summer sun. The 76-square-meter cabin was constructed using a steel frame with locally sourced, treated eucalyptus and galvanized steel sheets, providing a durable exterior that stayed within budget. Inside, the two-story layout features a double-height living room with a wood-burning stove on the lower level, a kitchen, and a dining area, while a lightweight hanging staircase leads to a bedroom and bathroom on the upper floor. The interior is clad in wood veneer, creating a warm contrast with the steel frame. The house is entirely self-sufficient, with electricity provided by photovoltaic solar panels, water supplied by a combination of rainwater harvesting and the river, a solar-powered tank for hot water, and a biodigester for sewage treatment. With its unique, function-driven design and eco-conscious features, Skatehouse 2 stands as a highly personalized and sustainable home nestled in the remote Argentinian wetlands.

- Warsaw Spire | Jaspers-Eyers Architects | ZHIG
COMMERCIAL | Office | Located between the famous Palace of Culture and Science and the Warsaw Rising Museum, the 49-storey Warsaw Spire creates an urban signal that advertises Warsaw’s new business district. The Warsaw Spire is the jewel in the crown of a series of tall buildings built in the last decade in Warsaw and, at 220 metres, it's the tallest building in Poland. The tower is amazingly slim and dynamic and looks as if it might never end. Two glazed "shells" extend towards the sky in a spiral form and add lightness to the atypical larger penthouse levels. The spiral shape emphasises the slenderness of the tower. Accompanying the Spire are two 16-storey, 58 metres mid-rise buildings that integrate the tower into the existing urban fabric. The positioning of the three buildings enables the creation of a vast, landscaped urban plaza with greenery and fountains and a 5-level garage beneath the complex. The plaza and the project’s 4.300 m² of restaurants, cafés, retail and services areas, has become the focal point of urban life in the busy district. A pedestrian space protected by a set of contemporary buildings equates to an unprecedented oasis of peace within the city centre. | https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9756fd_f2bb175151d149b796e6859b81247197~mv2.jpeg/v1/fill/w_1600,h_1068,al_c,q_85/Warsaw%20Spire%20(3).jpeg Please Wait Warsaw Spire (1).jpeg Warsaw Spire (2).jpeg Warsaw Spire (4).jpeg 1/3 0 Product 4.8K Views 0 0 Pin Pin Private Public x Appreciators Appreciated Appreciate Please Log in Warsaw Spire plac Europejski 1, 00-839 Warszawa, Poland Architects: Jaspers-Eyers Architects Jaspers-Eyers Architects Architecture Office Belgium Area: Year: City: Client: 68.000 m² 2016 Warsaw Ghelamco Construction: Category: COMMERCIAL Project Type: Office Post Type: Building Country: Poland Photographers: the architects Description: Located between the famous Palace of Culture and Science and the Warsaw Rising Museum, the 49-storey Warsaw Spire creates an urban signal that advertises Warsaw’s new business district.
