House with a Terrace, Surrounded by a Beautiful Forest: pS Arkitektur
White interior and black facades represent a design decision which will always be in fashion. Swedish company pS Arkitektur have represented their version of this kind of design. The house, surrounded by a beautiful forest, is in Nacka, outside Stockholm. According to the task all the rooms had to be placed on the same level; for this purpose the most distant part of the house is based on the pile, whilst another part has a foundation, consisting of a concrete block. The architects have proposed a rational layout to arrange all the internal space in a line, forming a long chain of rooms. The facades are covered with roofing felt.

Stacking Green by Vo Trong Nghia
The design studio Vo Trong Nghia from Ho Chi Minh has completed a beautiful project of Stacking Green House. Its width is only 4 meters, but it includes four full floors. This architecture is typical for Saigon, where the home is situated. Chaos reigns in the most populous city everywhere.

The internal layout of the residence is quite typical for Vietnam. On the ground floor there is one of the bedrooms, a pantry and exit to the patio. The second level is occupied by a living room and a kitchen. The third floor includes bedroom and bathroom, the last level is designated for office. On the roof there is a terrace to have a rest on the open air.
House With Plants-Protected Exterior in Brussels by Samyn and Partners
Have you ever seen plant facade design? We are going to review a very unusual and beautiful project by Samyn and Partners.

The renovation provided structure for the entry, office and kitchen for the residence, and the living room and stairway extend to the rest of the building. The house presents curved and vegetalised facades that are very private and closed to the neighbours to the north, the east and the south. In contrast, the west facade is is fully glassed to provide natural lighting. The architects worked in collaboration with botanist Patrick Blanc and the facade is equipped with all necessary systems for plants life.
Modern and Traditional LightHouse in Ottawa by Linebox Studio
This beautiful wooden house that combines the features of a modern building and traditional parts for the countryside, was built by the architects from Linebox Studio in Ottawa. The house, called the Lighthouse, is designed for a family consisting of five persons, and has an area of just over 400 square meters. The fact, that the architects found the right combination of modern and traditional styles, allows the house blend harmoniously in the existing environment. Front facade of the house is rather closed and has only small separate windows, but the back facade, facing to the south side, provides plenty of natural light and warmth. It was made not only to protect the house from cold north winds, but also to provide the privacy of residents from outsiders.
