Contemporary Concrete House
Contemporary Concrete House
At first this 350 sq.m. house was build with concrete method. It’s situated in quite place between trees with one wall exposed to the world. Walls, floors and columns together form concrete shell. The front door is a electronic sliding door with movement sensor. The house hides two basement floors thanks for using concrete technologies. Kitchen and other non-living rooms are on the first floor. The second floor features master bedroom which has great garden views and two children bedrooms. Each bedroom have its own private bathroom.
The house is the combination of traditional and contemporary architecture. The interior made in such style too. A lot of rustic elements and colors represent contemporary style while warm brown rooms represent traditional one.

Concrete Box House with Glass Platform on the Top
Concrete Box House with Glass Platform on the Top
De Blas House is placed at the crest of a north faced hill with views to the mountains near Madrid. The house consists of concrete box build as a platform with a transparent glass box roofed by delicate and light steel structure painted in white on it. The poured-in-place concrete box like a cave houses the living areas of a traditional house separated for private and public spaces. The glass box, placed upon the platform like a hut, is a belvedere to which one rises from within the house. The concrete box is 9 by 27 meters while the glass box is 4.5 x 9 meters by 2.26 meters high. The house attempts to be a literal transaction of tectonic and stereotomic questions: a tectonic piece set upon a stereotomic box. [Alberto Campo Baeza]

Small House with Reinforced Concrete Frame – Hall House
Small House with Reinforced Concrete Frame – Hall House
The Hall House was designed for a couple without a child in Shiga, Japan which wanted to have enough space for spare time activities on a small site. The house has parking lot, billiard-theater, dining-kitchen and bedroom with bathroom which all are contained in one hall changing their heights according to the slope of the front road. The frame made of reinforced concrete with about 180mm-thick walls in order to create soundproof environment. There are many exclusive things in the Hall’s House interior design like the glass bathroom, not isolated bedroom, rustic yet sophisticated look of concrete walls, unusual sloped roof and so on. It is great example of the new age’s architecture. [ALPHAVILLE]

House on the Cliff Carved Into the Solid Rock
House on the Cliff Carved Into the Solid Rock
Villa Astrid is another beautiful work by Wingardhs design studio on dramatic West Swedish landscape. The crucial parameter for the design of Villa Astrid was dictated by the local building code, which stipulates a 3.5-metre eaves height and a roof pitch between 14 and 27 degrees. This effectively reduces the size of the villa as seen from the street where only one storey is visible. The villa has an open-plan kitchen, a separate dining room and a large lounge nestled between the atrium and a sea view with the afternoon sun and sunsets. The lower store, hidden from the neighbors contains the bedrooms and other private spaces. The structure as a whole is carved into the solid rock of the hillside and the architect left a big chunk of that same rock in the living room and bathroom as a reminder of nature. The roof is made of concrete, insulated with Foamglas and then clad with metal sheeting. The walls have been built in solid, light-weight concrete, plastered on the inside and outside, and then clad with metal sheeting. The black, pre-patinated, copper sheets are bound by limestone gravel around the base of the building. [Wingardhs]
