Design / August 12, 2010

The contemporary wooden JD House in Mar Azul, Argentina, was created by BAK Architects with the purpose of a structure with a nature approach.

The geometric concrete envelope has glass walls favoring the consumption of light and a tree has made it on the porch at the front entrance, or rather through it, while other trees peek closely through the windows. The forest seems to extend into the house, with its wood plated walls and wood furniture and the dim yellow light on the surfaces and edges. It surprises the visitor or resident through glass strips cut into the wood under eye level, in the quaintest corners of the house. While the intensity of naked wood and the proximity of the forest may be oppressive to live with, the atmosphere is unique and fantastic, a true indoor-adventure for a holiday home.
