In the lush outskirts of León, Spain, the “House In the Forest” stands as a stunning example of design harmony with nature. Rodrigo Nuñez Arquitectos, in 2019, envisioned a home that not only sits beside the forest but becomes one with it.
This residence blurs the lines between the wild woods and suburban life, with spaces designed for human habitation, natural growth, and a blend of both. Utilizing the land’s natural slope, the house integrates terraced levels where brick and wood echo the forest’s vertical pines and horizontal clay soil, creating a seamless flow between indoors and out.
This Edwardian terrace in Muswell Hill, London, has been expertly refurbished by Ben Ridley, Director at Architecture for London, to reduce energy requirements and create a comfortable, low energy house.
Triple glazing and improved airtightness and insulation of the building envelope, as well as a 172mm SIPS (6.77in) rear extension with highly insulated materials, have achieved a Passivhaus standard U-value of 0.15 or better (1.59 W/m2K). Further, natural materials like stone, timber and lime plaster were used throughout, and a Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery (MVHR) system was installed to provide pre-heated fresh air and filter the incoming air for a healthy indoor environment.
