| Bright and Cosy Villa Displaying an Interesting Shape in Austria Posted: 10 Dec 2010 03:50 PM PST Located in Graz Geidorf, Austria, this next residential building, named the 3S Villa, was designed by architects from LOVE architecture and urbanism. The 145 sqm of the house seem to overcome the boundaries between inside and outside. Although the building has a contemporary structure, the whole concept of the house is based on the relation between nature and human space. Even the roof has an interesting shape: it folds on the southern terrace, continues up and over the building and ends up forming an abstract saddle roof. The white exterior acts like a canvas for the architect`s desire to explore and experiment with different forms. Each of the vantage points offers another view of the wonderful exterior design. The terrace in the back of the house has wood flooring, just like the interior. The same shade of brown allows the flooring to connect the outside with the inside in a natural manner, without disturbing the feeling of being in the middle of the nature.

| Impressive Architectural Studio Overwhelms the Astonishing Landscape Posted: 10 Dec 2010 09:29 AM PST Surrounded by an incredible natural landscape, this imposing studio by architect Todd Saunders was erected on the Fogo Island, in Canada, right on the outskirts of Newfoundland. The surface of the structure is quite small – 120 m2, but this is not an impediment for the architectural features to fully hit the eye. In an environment where people have lived for ages in close contact with nature, the Fogo Long Studio has the courage to break through the traditional character of the insular area. This building is the first in a series of structures financed by a foundation which promotes the arts. Under the foundation`s care, there will be a series of singular structures built in remote parts of the island. Dark on the outside, but bright and white on the inside, the Fogo Long Studio looks a lot larger than it actually is. The private spaces and storage areas were grouped at one end in order to maintain a smooth and clean design line and also offer an apparently large open interior. The backside of the structure rests on the ground, while the part closer to the ocean is supported by pillars. A great way to promote architecture and style, this project is bound to be a statement for the international architectural community. The telltale photos were taken by Bent Rene Synnevag. – Via
