Cozy interior

Architects from GAAGA designed V-House in Leiden, the Netherlands. This residence was called due to its unusual geometry. The roof of the house is made ??of wood and shaped like the letter V, that looks quite original. The upper level has a living room, dining room and kitchen. This part of the house features an open plan with high ceilings (from 2.8 to 4.1 meters, depending on the angle of the roof). On the ground floor there is a hall, bedrooms and a bathroom. It also provides access to the garden. Spaciousness and natural materials (such as stone and wood) help to create a welcoming cozy atmosphere in the house.

This beautiful house in the mountains was designed by John Maniscalco Architecture, and it?s located close to the Sugar Bowl Ski Resort in Norden, California. While the first level of the house is made from cedar, the second level is glazed, so the most spectacular views of the surrounding forest are seen from there. In the interior decoration there are many wood breeds such as spruce and walnut, which give the interior of the house warm pleasant feeling that is so necessary to lodge in the mountains. From architects'? description: ?Perched on a concrete plinth that lifts the house above the tall winter snow-pack, a solid, cedar-clad volume houses sleeping areas, boot room, and service spaces. Above, a variety of living spaces, each enjoying mountain views, are gathered under a simple, bent planar roof form. The exaggerated geometry of the openings frame views of horizontal snow drifts and vertical stands of pine trees?.

A very awesome house was designed by Natalie Dionne in Montreal neighbourhood, Canada. The U-House was designed by the architect to house both the family residence and the office space. The dominant concept of the project is fluidity between interior and exterior spaces. The boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces are confounded when the large accordion style door is opened. The design of the U-House responds to a harsh urban context, respectfully shutting out the outside world. Focus lies towards the inner core. One of the original building large windows on the L-shaped platform actually opens the garage door, which is fully for integration into the living room to the garden. The atmosphere inside is very relaxing and cozy.
