The exterior walls of the house are designed to imitate the texture and surface of trees so that they look like part of the forest. Large windows and sliding glass doors frame stunning natural views and allow natural light to flood the home's interior.
The design mainly uses wood material to create a warm and sturdy impression. Apart from that,
wooden structures are also able to absorb and store carbon dioxide around the building.
Clean and simple furniture blends perfectly with the exterior of the house.
