Nestled in the middle of a wooden forest surrounded by gardens and trees, Casa de Arce in Subachoque, Colombia, by @alugar.co [IG] was integrated into the landscape by mimicking the aesthetics of nature using durable materials such as rustic brick and concrete. Yet, this idea is quite unusual for the local area. ”The house is located in a rural area just about one hour away from Bogota, most of the local architecture is based on big haciendas and local farms, so you can rarely find a concrete house almost mimicking a bunker. However, once you get the first glance of the house, it is astonishing how it blends with nature and it does not feel external to the place”, architect Julian Otalora says.Photos by: @simonboschphotographynl [IG]
