Made of Sand Retreat, designed by Studio Weave in the Blackdown Hills, UK, is a modern twist on a traditional stone cottage.
This 2021 project, featuring a double-story timber extension, merges artistry with nature. Its 85 square meters (914 square feet) offer a creative haven with stunning views and natural materials, providing a tranquil retreat for artists and families alike.
Nestled on the cliffs of South Korea’s eastern peninsula, Seosaeng House represents a striking blend of traditional Korean elements and contemporary design by London-based Studio Weave.
This multi-generational family dwelling harmoniously contours the hillside, offering breath-taking 180-degree views of the Eastern Sea. Aided by innovative use of materials such as fluted, pink-tinted concrete tiles and Lauran ply, the architecture subtly infuses domestic Korean customs into modern living. With its cascading terraces, an inviting courtyard garden, and a unique connection to its landscape, Seosaeng House emerges as a distinct beacon of oriental beauty and innovative architectural design.
