On the Side


I quite like this mountain cabin by Austrian architectural firm Raumhochrosen. This simple exterior actually looks moderately affordable, and the horizontal lines of the board formed concrete at the exterior contrast nicely with the verticality of the exterior. Even with large expanses of glass, the change in levels and materials provides a cozy interior. I'm certainly ready to sip some hot cocoa and watch the snow fall...

These modern birdhouses are also by Raumhochrosen and are too cute... while I'm pretty sure that any architecture student willing to part with one of his/her models could retrofit it for a few birds, I'm really amused by this architecture firm's foray into fowl architecture. Everyone has got to have something going on the side, right?!?!
