This house based on reflecting the local tradition and localized needs and construction materials makes a magnificent example of vernacular architecture. What we have here today is a wonderful accentuation of this type of architecture. It could very easy be a house that people live in day by day, providing them a simple, yet sufficient living lifestyle, but it can also be seen as a getaway by people who want an escape from their rushed lives.

The architecture is simple executed, yet very imposing, maybe because many of today’s architects have forgotten just how beautiful the basic things can be. The massive and high thatched roof gets pretty much all the attention, but the glass walls covered with white fluid curtains come as an unexpected contrast. To all that presented, a green landscape is added and the picture gets the perfect framework.
