Modern design of a small private house in the forest

Admiring the view from the window in any weather - that was his main desire, and the designers went forward: one of the walls of the house, facing the lake, was made completely glass. This wall-window makes it possible to observe the lake all year, not paying attention to the vagaries of the weather.

There should not be buildings in the forest that stand out too much from the environment - this is how the owner decided. Therefore, the design of a small private house was decided in an ecological way: a tree was used in the construction, and where, if not in the forest, to build wooden houses!

The facade of the house is lined with slats - they “dissolve” in the forest as well as possible, merging with the background. But you won’t get lost in sight: the strict rhythm of the alternation of laths stands out from the arbitrary alternation of trunks in the forest, indicating the place of residence of a person.

It is as if a small modern house is permeated with air and light, the slats protruding above the roof create a picture resembling the outline of a forest on a hill. The shadow of the slats in the interior creates the effect of staying in the forest more often.

The glass wall is sliding apart - this is the entrance to the house. During the absence of the owners, the glass is covered with shutters made of wood, they are folding and easy to clean when unnecessary.

The project used unique larch wood - this tree practically does not rot, a house from it can stand for centuries.

All wooden parts for a small house in the forest were made using modern technology - they were cut with a laser beam. Then part of the structures were assembled in workshops, and part - delivered directly to the construction site, where this unusual house was installed in a week.

To avoid dampness, the house was raised above the ground with bolts.

The design of a small private house is simple, and a bit like a “yacht”, this is a tribute to the owner’s hobby.Everything inside is modest and strict: a sofa and a fireplace in the living room, a bed in the “cabin” - only, unlike a yacht, not below, below the deck, but above, under the roof.

To the "bedroom" you can climb the metal ladder.

In a small modern house there is nothing superfluous, and the whole decor comes down to decorative pillows in a “sea” strip - a combination of blue and white brings refreshing notes to the ascetic interior.

Wooden walls are illuminated by many fixtures, the light of which can be directed in any direction, of your choice.

At first glance it seems that in a small house in the forest there is not even a kitchen. But this impression is erroneous, she is hiding in a wooden cube, occupying part of the living room.

At the top of this cube is a bedroom-cabin, and in it itself is a kitchen, or a sea galley. Its decoration is also minimalistic: the walls are covered with cement, the furniture is gray, to match his tone. The steel sheen of the facades prevents this brutal interior from looking gloomy and dull.

The design of a small private house did not provide for any excesses, so there is no bathtub, instead of it there is a shower, the bathroom is small in size and fits perfectly in one “cube” with the kitchen.

Due to this, with a small total area, there is enough space for a spacious living room. All the things needed by the owner are hidden in a large storage system, which occupies almost the entire wall.

Near the fireplace there is a large niche in which it is convenient to stack firewood. The fireplace in this small modern house is not a luxury, but a necessity; it is precisely with them that the whole room is heated. With a small area and thoughtful design, such a heat source is enough to heat 43 square meters.

A small house has a lot of advantages: it is warm in the winter and cool in the summer, sitting on the couch you can admire the entire expanse of the lake, and in order to relax or receive guests, there is everything you need.

The environmental friendliness of the decoration should be added to all the pluses: the tree on the walls is covered with oil, the floor is cement the color of the lake, and all this looks stylish and very appropriate in a house near the water.
