A stunning piece of architecture and one of my many dream homes. Set within a forest and amongst hills, the house is a designed to fuse with the nature of the terrain. Using concrete, wood and glass at its main construction, the architects aimed to purpose the space without demolishing trees and the surrounding forest. Photography by Andrés Asturias.

I love the combination of sleek modern design, like the stainless steel kitchen and the wooden interior, warmth in an industrial environment. Check out the pics and this info straight from Charlotte’s portfolio.

“This historic artist’s loft was ‘reinvisioned’ as a gracious one room home for a couple, taking care to respect the old spirit of the place. A sixty-five foot wood library element provides organization to the space nad serves to define a day bed area with stunning view of the city in two directions. An industrial metal kitchen, custom-made in Italy break the rhythm of the library and opens up to spectacular north facing 22′ high sky lights.

While the main space  keeps its original soul, the bathrooms and dressing areas have been designed like minimal luxury men’s store, an iconic contrast in grey marble and matching cerused (limed) wood panelling.”
