Blended Into The Forest

House Blended Into The Forest is a building that was created in the surroundings of an old pine forest with respect for nature. The basic assumption when designing this house was to integrate it into the existing trees and unite it with the forest. This idea was realized thanks to the use of a material that seems to be alien to the forest, i.e. sheet metal. The implementation showed that the house almost grows out of nature. The interior of the house is white and green dominates it thanks to large windows.

The Suburban House

The Suburban House is a house located in a heavily urbanized suburb of Warsaw. It is surrounded by various types of buildings that create spatial chaos. The designers' intention was to create a building that would improve the surrounding space. Due to the intensive development. Its terrace is surrounded by the walls of the building to ensure the privacy of the users, and on the north side it has only narrow windows, obscuring the surrounding intense development. The main openings are facing south, providing a view of the plot.

Oak Konan Shinagawa

The building is a mid rise, 12 story office building located near the harbor in Tokyo, Japan. The white lattice like exterior frame is an outer shell made of precast concrete serving as structural frame as well as sun shading device. Combined with the steel construction of the core this hybrid structure creates a column free office space. In addition, the exterior windows have natural ventilation window units that can be opened and closed manually. The fusion of design, structure, and equipment enhances high buildability and sustainability and has improved the added value of the building.

Semi Opened

Semi Opened House is closed from the front and opens to the private forest. The roof is a green terrace, from which you can admire tree tops. The building frames the greenery and the surroundings so that the dream images can be viewed from every perspective. It is a harsh unchangeable monolith, referring to rocks scattered in the region, which is constantly being complemented by the surrounding nature. The pictures around the house change in the rhythm of seasons, weather conditions, day and night cycles. The interiors adopt nature decorations through spacious windows and transform seasonally.

Ice and Fire

The site of this project faces directly the unmistakable local volcano Mt Yotei. Named Fire and Ice Chalet, this concept is inspired by this fire burning volcano covered with snow in winter and represents the contrast between Northern Japan's harsh winter and the warmth and comfort expected in ski resort's chalets. The shape of the roof and the side walls reproduces the image of two human hands joined at their fingers. The design captures the feeling of sipping on a hot cocoa on a comfortable sofa next to a wood burning fireplace while enjoying the view of the snow-blanketed volcano.
