Using only stone, contemporary residences may sometimes feel austere and formal. But, with a pile of raw stones you can bring the natural warmth at home, changing the atmosphere immediately. Completed in 2013 by Ando Studio from Israel, the house below features a playful architectural composition, with volumes that communicate easily and spaces that complement each other. As for the interiors, the ‘raw stone aesthetic’ continues inside with sober colours, mineral-like carpets and gem textures that create a pure, neat atmosphere. Moreover, metal panels and hot lighting items add a slight glamorous effect to the dining area. Perfectly integrated inside the residence, the rigidity of the stone was diminished with beautiful flowers, trees, bushes and a splendid pool outside. Therefore, raw stone is perfect when you want to conceive a smooth transition between interior and exterior areas.
