House disappears into the landscape

House disappears into the landscape

The main goal throughout the project was to create a house that blends into the environment and blends into the beautiful landscape. The country’s topography made it fairly easy to get to. The house called Witklipfontein Eco Lodge is located in Vredefort, South Africa. It was designed and built by GLH Architects Studio and covers an area of ​​400 square meters.

The architects tried to integrate the building into the existing landscape without having to terraform the land too much, and they succeeded. They gave the house stone and rammed earth walls and a green roof that helps make it quite a beauty. In a way, this fits the description of an underground house. The house has numerous large openings and offers a beautiful and wide view of the surroundings.

The choice of raw materials used throughout the home, as well as the overall design and aesthetics, help residents reconnect with nature. At the same time, everything is interpreted in a modern way, making this a really cool, modern home. If the goal of the interior was to emphasize this structure as little as possible, the strategy for the interior was a little different. The rooms are very warm and inviting with spacious open floor plans, large windows and lots of stylish decor touches.
