Deeply influenced by Venetian coastal elegance, Austro-Hungarian imperial precision, and the masterful modernist vision of a single architect—Jože Plečnik—the country's built identity is defined by its deep harmony with nature, extensive use of timber, and a world-leading transition into clean, sustainable human-scale urbanism.

The 262 m2 residence balances traditional form with contemporary expression, integrating itself harmoniously with its surroundings through a thoughtful use of material and structure. The design is intrinsically shaped by the sloping terrain of the site. A partially underground basement, constructed from exposed concrete, anchors the home, providing a grounded counterpoint to the warm wooden structure above. This lower level accommodates practical spaces such as a large garage and service areas, as well as a more rustic "country-style room". The main living spaces are located on the upper floor, where the ceiling soars dramatically to the roof ridge, revealing the exposed timber frame and creating a sense of spaciousness. A sleeping area is also on this floor, with a gallery above it designed as a flexible and playful space for the owners' grandchildren. A key architectural element that bridges the new design with the regional building traditions is the covered porch, or gank, on the eastern side of the building. This external corridor connects the rooms on the ground floor, functioning as both a practical pathway and a symbolic link to the communal outdoor spaces of historic rural dwellings. This gesture, along with the prominently visible timber frame and the use of natural materials, ensures the new build feels both modern and deeply connected to its alpine setting. The interior of Hiša Š contrasts the rustic wooden structure with a clean, contemporary aesthetic. Modern furniture and materials are balanced with carefully chosen color accents and wallpaper. A notable feature is the suspended, rotating fireplace, which serves as a central point of life during colder months. In warmer weather, the living area can be extended outdoors onto a terrace and towards the pool area, which is cleverly shielded from the road by a green barrier. Through this project, Her arhitektura successfully delivered a home that respectfully nods to its heritage while providing a distinctly modern and functional space for its inhabitants.

Built in 2009 to replace an older, deteriorating bivouac, the new structure serves as a free refuge for mountaineers navigating the rugged landscape of Veliki podi beneath Mount Grintovec. Its vertical form is intended to be a highly visible landmark, easily spotted by hikers against the rock in summer or snow in winter. The shelter's design was heavily influenced by the extreme alpine environment and the logistical challenges of building at such a remote site, accessible only by foot. The components of the bivouac were prefabricated for minimal weight and transported to the site by helicopter. It rests on a small concrete base anchored into the bedrock, minimizing its footprint on the landscape. The structure is a simple volume, measuring 2 by 3 meters with a height of 4.5 meters. The exterior is clad in black aluminum panels, which contribute to its striking appearance against the backdrop of the mountains. The interior, with a total floor area of 14 square meters, is arranged across three vertical levels connected by a ladder. Large, vertical windows are strategically placed at the corners to frame dramatic views of the surrounding peaks, giving the impression that the upper sleeping levels are ""floating"" above the mountain scenery. The bivouac is unheated but designed for energy efficiency. The aluminum outer panels provide insulation to retain the heat generated by the occupants' bodies, while the inner skin of perforated wooden panels allows moisture to escape, ensuring a dry and warm interior. The vertical layout means that heat naturally rises to the upper sleeping levels, which can comfortably accommodate up to eight people. The ground floor provides a living and dining area with benches and a small table. The successful realization of the bivouac earned Miha Kajzelj the Plečnik Medal in 2011.

Designed by architect Sanja Premrn, the area of this innovative living unit is 25 m² (269 ft²). The design retains the essential character of the original structure while adapting it for modern living. The project preserves the existing masonry walls and building footprint, respecting the scale and identity of the surrounding historic urban fabric. This thoughtful approach ensures that the new dwelling harmonizes with its environment, maintaining the architectural integrity of the area. Key features of the intervention include the addition of a new timber gable roof, high-performance thermal insulation, and energy-efficient construction solutions. The façade is simply rendered and complemented by timber shutters, which contribute to the understated appearance of the building, allowing it to blend seamlessly with its surroundings. Inside, the layout is organized as a bright, open-plan studio. The living and sleeping areas are subtly defined through the use of built-in furniture, creating a functional and aesthetically pleasing space. A separate bathroom enhances the unit's practicality. New window openings provide ample daylight and facilitate direct access to the garden, reinforcing the connection between the interior and the outdoor environment. The Najmanjšahiša project exemplifies how a modest historic outbuilding can be sensitively adapted into a contemporary home, preserving its architectural heritage while meeting the needs of modern living.

The project is a collaboration between OFIS Architects, structural engineers AKT II, and students from Harvard University's Graduate School of Design (GSD), whose initial design studio work evolved into a fully realized architectural project. Conception and design. The project began in 2014 as a GSD design studio led by OFIS Architects' Rok Oman and Špela Videčnik, challenging students to design a modular shelter for extreme alpine conditions. The winning proposal, by students Frederick Kim, Katie MacDonald, and Erin Pellegrino, was inspired by traditional Slovenian vernacular architecture and features a robust, multi-faceted form. The final design, refined with input from mountaineers and engineers, consists of three prefabricated, 12-square-meter modules that are designed to resist heavy snowfall, strong winds, and extreme temperatures. Due to the difficult-to-access location at 2,080 meters above sea level, the modules were fabricated off-site and airlifted to the site by a Slovenian Army helicopter. More than 60 volunteers, along with the architects and engineers, completed the assembly in a single day, minimizing environmental disturbance. The modular construction and anchored base allowed for a quick, low-impact installation on the rugged, rocky terrain. The exterior is clad in a weather-resistant, silver-gray composite skin of glass fiber-reinforced concrete panels. This durable outer shell provides protection from the elements, while the interior is lined with natural larch timber panels to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Floor-to-ceiling, triple-glazed windows on the end walls offer stunning panoramic views of the surrounding valley and mountains. The interior layout is functionally divided into three zones, with a ladder connecting the entrance and storage area, the central living and dining area, and the upper bunk sleeping quarters.

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.

Situated in a forest clearing in Kanji Dol, Slovenia, the project was created for a young Slovenian family who, living in a big city in Italy, wanted a home that allowed them to be surrounded by nature. The design is a modern interpretation of the traditional mountain cabin, with exaggerated angles and oblique sides that give it a distinctive appearance while allowing it to blend into the surrounding landscape. Its simple form was intentionally created to minimize disruption to the environment and withstand the harsh Slovenian weather. The Wooden House's exterior is protected by durable, dark metal siding and thick insulation, which contrast with the light-wood interior. This warm, timber-clad interior offers a sense of being outdoors and helps blur the line between interior and exterior spaces. A large glass facade on one side of the house lets in ample natural light and provides expansive views of the forest and hills, connecting nearly every room to the natural surroundings. The layout maximizes the home's limited space with an open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area on the ground floor. Two bedrooms and a play area are located on the second level and overlook the main living spaces. The house also features a sauna on the ground floor and minimalist furniture in dark tones that provides contrast to the light wood interior. A deck and minimal landscaping integrate the house into its surroundings. The project received second place nationally for the best wooden construction in Slovenia in 2016.

Completed in 2024, the two-story house is set on a challenging, steep, and densely wooded site overlooking Lac Notre-Dame in the Laurentian Mountains. The project was a collaboration between founders Sophie Robitaille and Andrew Curtis, along with their design team. The design of Chalet Papillon prioritized minimal environmental disturbance and deforestation. The architects achieved this by positioning the house parallel to the site's contours, with one end dramatically hovering over a granite ledge. This placement allows for panoramic lake and forest views while respecting the natural topography. The chalet is clad in locally sourced eastern white cedar, which weathers to a gray tone that blends with the surrounding tree bark. The interior of Chalet Papillon features an inverted floor plan. The main living area, including the kitchen, dining, and living spaces, is on the upper level, offering expansive views through large windows and a covered, screened-in porch. Inside, the use of pale timber, white walls, and concrete floors creates a bright, spacious, and airy atmosphere. The lower level houses the sleeping quarters, which are nestled within the forest for privacy. This level includes three bunk bedrooms, a bathroom, a playroom, and access to another covered porch. The efficient layout allows the chalet to comfortably sleep up to twelve people. Sustainable design principles were integral to the project, with a focus on maximizing daylight and views while minimizing energy consumption. The thermal envelope is highly insulated, and the design features efficient appliances, LED lighting, and high-performance windows. An intentionally designed path winds down from the lower porch, providing a direct connection to the water's edge.

The area is part of a national park, characterized by rounded, wind-worn granite rocks and leaning trees. As part of a larger family compound with other houses dating back to the 1950s, the new additions were built for one of the sons and his family and a smaller house for his parents, who have summered in the area for generations. The designs draw inspiration from the rugged landscape and the contrast between the tough climate and the relaxed atmosphere of a summer retreat. Both houses are raised on stilts, leaving the ground and rocks underneath untouched, creating a sense of floating above the terrain. Outdoor bridges and platforms, suspended from the facade, extend the living space around the houses. The simple, timber-framed structures are covered in a maintenance-free mineral facade in a shade of gray similar to the rocks, while the rounded, barrel-vaulted roofs echo the shape of the weathered surroundings. The main house features a simple floor plan, with a large, open living room and kitchen area facing the ocean and a more private rear section containing bedrooms and the entrance. Large sliding glass doors in the main living space allow for an open connection to the outdoors, seamlessly blending interior and exterior spaces. Inside, the walls are paneled with untreated fir, creating a warm, natural aesthetic.

The clients, who include a hairstylist and a landscape designer, sought to add flexible living space without sacrificing their beloved backyard garden. Architect Nicole Blair's design, completed in 2022, is a floating structure supported by four steel columns that pierce the bungalow's walls, minimizing site disruption. The steel frame was prefabricated off-site and craned into place in a single day, which allowed the homeowners to remain in their residence during construction. Aptly named for its elevated position, The Perch adds a layer of densification while honoring the existing home's scale and setting. The exterior is clad in durable, low-maintenance weathering steel and corrugated metal, echoing the angular, asymmetrical roofline and the original bungalow's steel elements. This material choice offers a bold, utilitarian aesthetic that will naturally evolve over time. The interior, however, provides a warm, tranquil contrast with its playful color palette of pale wood, white-washed pine, and blush cabinetry. The design maximizes the compact volume by incorporating vaulted ceilings and split-level floors, giving the impression of expansive space. The Perch is designed to be a deeply sensory experience. Subtle movement in the building's structure, felt on the steel staircase and the cantilevered front room, provides a gentle reminder of wind and gravity, connecting the inhabitants to their physical environment. Custom details reinforce this connection, such as a swaying steel coatrack and bent rebar elements that reference the landscape designer owner's yard.

  • Vermont Cabin | Olson Kundig | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Situated on a wooded hillside in Stowe, Vermont, the Vermont Cabin by Olson Kundig is a three-level retreat designed to maximize a small footprint while offering an immersive experience of its natural surroundings. The 750-square-foot cabin was designed by Tom Kundig of Olson Kundig for a family that has owned land in the area for generations. The compact, vertical design was intended to foster intimacy and connection, both with each other and with the surrounding forests of central Vermont. The cabin’s material palette is an elemental mix of steel, wood, and concrete, chosen to reflect the character of the wilderness. The exterior features panels of weathering steel, while the interior showcases exposed timber and poured concrete. This rugged, utilitarian aesthetic is balanced by the warmth of natural materials and strategic use of glazing. The layout places the main living spaces on the top floor to maximize views of the surrounding landscape, including the Green Mountains and Worcester Range.

Conceived as a modern and low-impact alternative to camping, the huts were designed for a client who wanted to provide guest accommodations on the site of a former RV campground while allowing the landscape to return to its natural state. The cabins sit on oversized steel wheels, a creative solution to local zoning regulations that prohibited permanent structures but permitted RVs. This wheeled foundation elevates the huts a short distance above the meadow, allowing native grasses to grow underneath and minimizing the human footprint on the sensitive environment. The 200-square-foot cabins, completed in 2008, are essentially minimalist, steel-clad boxes on a steel and wood platform. Large, double-paned sliding glass doors at one end of each hut open onto a covered deck, extending the usable space into the outdoors. Inside, the material palette is simple, raw, and inexpensive, featuring cork and plywood left as natural as possible. A lopsided, inverted V-shaped roof with clerestory windows floats above the walls, bringing ample natural light into the compact interior.

  • Ecohouse Module S22 | Ilya Shevchenko | ZHIG

    RESIDENTIAL | Modular House | The Ecohouse Module S22, designed by Ilya Shevchenko for the architectural bureau Strawmodul, is a prefabricated and modular tiny house series focused on eco-friendly, sustainable living. The project was developed as a "growing" home, allowing for phased construction and future expansion from the initial 22-square-meter module to a larger residence of up to 100 square meters. The initial prototype, completed in 2019, is situated on the rocky coast of Crimea. The core of the Ecohouse S22's sustainability is its unique construction method, which uses prefabricated straw panels. These panels are made from compressed straw bales set within a strong wooden frame. This method allows the house kit to be delivered in pieces and erected quickly, typically within two to three days. The use of straw as insulation provides excellent thermal properties, exceeding the heat-insulating performance of traditional wood or brick walls and aligning with European passive house standards for minimal heat loss. As straw is a renewable natural resource, this construction method is eco-friendly, utilizes what would otherwise be considered agricultural waste, and generates minimal construction waste. The design of the Crimea prototype features a strong, cantilevered terrace that projects from the dense vegetation, offering elevated views of the coast and surrounding mountains. To protect against prying eyes, the main facade with its wide window is hidden from passersby. Inside, the two-story module is compactly arranged, with a hallway and bathroom on the first floor and a quieter bedroom area on the second. The house is also equipped with solar panels, designed to provide a significant portion of its energy needs.

Designed for a self-builder couple, the 1,296-square-foot cabin (36x36 feet) combines ecological architecture, universal accessibility, and a resort-like experience into a single, cohesive design. The structure is defined by its striking, all-white exterior, which evokes the tranquil, restful properties of the selenite mineral. The architects created this effect with white-painted wooden planks and matching metal roof panels. The geometry of the roof, designed as two inverted crystal-like prisms, gives the structure its unique, modern form while referencing the mineral's crystalline nature. Square skylights punctuate the peaks of these roofs, flooding the interior with natural light and emphasizing the home's sense of balance and symmetry. In addition to its aesthetic vision, the project prioritized universal accessibility to ensure the space is functional and safe for as many users as possible, addressing a common limitation in vacation properties. The interior is a haven of wellness, featuring amenities like a steam bath, sauna, cold bath, and a salt room. A home automation system controls lighting synchronized to the circadian rhythm and can even launch guided meditation sessions. The monochromatic white palette and high ceilings in key areas, such as the living room and bathroom, amplify the peaceful and restful atmosphere. Sustainability was a key consideration in the build, with the clients opting for healthy, local materials like hemp wool for insulation. To enhance the sense of seclusion and wellness, a Faraday cage was installed to block electromagnetic waves, catering to those with electro-sensitivity.

The project transformed an old, abandoned agricultural shed, formerly used to store fodder and tools, into a secondary residence for a client who lives in France. The intervention was conceived to preserve the rural identity and the original structure of the building, without modifying its main volume. The architecture is characterized by its focus on reuse and integration with the natural environment. The design consisted of wrapping the existing masonry structure with a new, permeable wooden skin. This outer membrane not only conceals the new functional programs but also creates interstitial spaces that expand the use of the home. The project seeks to pay homage to the humble typology of the Uruguayan countryside while transforming it into a poetic architectural gesture. The interior is a diaphanous volume with an open plan, defined by a furniture wall that integrates the kitchen, pantry, and a desk. Above the dining area, a loft houses the bed and wardrobes. The bathroom and service areas remain in an external volume, honoring the rural traditions of Uruguay. Large windows capture views of the landscape, while subtle natural light enters through narrow slits in the wooden membrane, accentuating texture and depth.

  • The Atelier | JAN TYRPEKL | ZHIG

    MULTI-FUNCTIONAL | Studio | The Atelier, designed by Czech architect Jan Tyrpekl, is a 68-square-meter three-season workspace and wellness retreat located in the woods near Stříbrná Skalice, a rural village east of Prague. Completed in 2022, the project is a sustainable and resourceful endeavor, built almost entirely from locally sourced, recycled, and donated materials from previous constructions. The building process was a collaborative effort involving friends and family, reflecting a "labor of love" approach. The structure is divided into three distinct parts, creating a harmonious balance between work and relaxation: a small studio with basic sanitary facilities, a sauna with an adjacent beekeeping workshop, and an open terrace that connects the two volumes. The design is based on a simple, gabled-roof massing, with strategically placed north-facing windows to prevent overheating during the summer while maximizing natural light. Storage niches for firewood are integrated into the facades, which aids in insulation during colder months. The building is heated by wood-burning stoves in both the studio and the sauna. The Atelier's foundation consists of concrete footings that support an admitted timber frame, which carries individual insulated timber panels. Its design is intended to engage with the surrounding landscape, offering expansive views of the valley and nearby forest, and providing a flexible space for various activities, including work, relaxation, family gatherings, or accommodating guests.

Its design is intended to engage with the surrounding landscape, offering expansive views of the valley and nearby forest, and providing a flexible space for various activities, including work, relaxation, family gatherings, or accommodating guests.

Completed in 2023, the cabin was commissioned to provide a unique and serene retreat for relaxation, offering a deep connection with the surrounding nature, which includes an orchard and mature trees. The dwelling is perched on 4-meter-high concrete stilts, allowing the landscape to flow unimpeded beneath and creating a feeling of being in a "bird's nest," which offers a sense of security and intimacy. The structure is built from sustainable materials, featuring a frame of glued laminated spruce timbers and a platform and roof of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels. The lower part of the structure and the terrace are made from glued laminated larch timbers. The most prominent feature of the design is the extensive use of glass walls, which enclose the entire living space to provide uninterrupted, 360-degree views of the natural surroundings. For privacy, interior curtains can be drawn. The open-plan interior is designed for simplicity and comfort. It includes a built-in bed, a connected bar/kitchenette, and a suspended fireplace that creates a cozy, warm atmosphere. The space is divided into distinct zones for sleeping, sitting, and conversing. Large HS portals—sliding doors—provide access to a spacious terrace overlooking the farm's orchard. While the current cabin lacks a bathroom and cooking facilities, plans are in place for a future expansion that will add a sauna, shower, and toilet in the space between the supporting pillars beneath the house.

The 12.5-square-meter cabin is situated on top of a disused World War II concrete bunker near the border of the Czech Republic and Austria. This was part of an architectural statement to repurpose the thousands of bunkers left in the landscape after they were never used for their intended purpose. By designing a light, removable wooden structure, Tyrpekl aimed to minimize the impact on the existing historical structure. The project was executed with minimal material, cost, and time. It was built with the help of friends, family, and architecture students, rather than being funded by donations or grants. Because of logistical challenges, the cabin was first assembled at a family farm 200 kilometers away, then disassembled and reassembled on the bunker. The design demonstrates that a generous interior space can be created within a very small footprint. The building features two large windows—one facing the Austrian border and the other facing a nearby village church—and an additional rooftop window, ensuring the small space is filled with natural light and scenic views. The simple wooden design was constructed using only common tools. The Shelter serves as a small retreat, and anyone can arrange to stay there with the owner's permission. In 2018, the project received a Czech Architecture Award nomination, with the jury praising its ability to make the invisible visible, its philosophical approach to marking a special place, and its simple, natural materials that achieve maximum impact with minimal means.
