Planar House by studio mk27
Even as you approach, it is hard to spot the new house by Marcio Kogan, it blends so well into its natural setting. The concrete roof of this low-lying country retreat, two hours by car from São Paulo, is camouflaged by a grassy lawn on its top, making the strongly horizontal structure almost invisible from a road on higher ground. “We seek an architecture that has the least impact possible on the environment,” says Kogan, Brazil’s best-known architect. “The house becomes a continuation of the surrounding topography.”
Tree-ness House by Akihisa Hirata
Japanese architect Akihisa Hirata has completed a multi-storey project in Tokyo’s Otsuka district, which expands upon his affinity with nature-inspired architecture. although it is primarily a residential building, ‘tree-ness house’ also contains spaces for commercial tenants at its lower levels. located on a deep but narrow site, the slender design employs an organic layering system to generate a series of three-dimensional spaces that relate to the building’s surroundings.
