{Continuing our Friday Feature of Marcio Kogan’s StudioMK27. Love this house… although I DO wonder how they manage to keep the bugs out with spaces that are so open to the outdoors.}With the Tetris House, the famous Brazilian architecture firm Studio mk27 achieved another tour de force and broke some new ground in the world of modern architecture. Mixing the classics (geometric elements materialized in a perfect mix of wood and stone, an amazing balance between organic and unnatural elements in the design), the Brazilian architects came up with a winning combination that allows them to perfectly imbricate an imposing building in the strong and flourishing nature of the surroundings.The thin recurring motive of the laminated wooden cladding gives a direction to the interior and an overwhelming, almost invasive, sense of horizontality. Yet, outside the orientation of the wood changes, and we suddenly find a verticality that balances the whole dynamic of the design. On the walls, the presence of large bookshelves continues to highlight the juxtapostion of vertical and horizontal. -- source link
