Rusafova-Markulis architects designed a house titled Cabin House on a wooded suburban lot in Asheville, NC, USA. Completed in 2020, the retreat has a dark facade to help camouflage it within the forest, which the owner specifies will grow closer to the house in time. The design references traditional cabin interiors with stripped-back touches including exposed wooden frames, rough-sawn pine plywood ceilings, and warm pine floors.
The White Rock house by Omar Gandhi Architects takes cues from camouflaged duck blinds and hunting cabins, perching above a steep, rocky incline in Nova Scotia, Canada, surrounded by farmland. The distinctively shaped observation structure features corten steel cladding and provides panoramic views of the Gaspereau River Valley.
Inside, smoked oak panels line the minimal interiors designed for rejuvenation, with carefully placed windows and Belgium linens creating a tranquil, blended relationship with the lush, forested surroundings.
