The collaboration between German architectural studios Karl Dreer and Bembé Dellinger Architects gave birth to this amazing residence that borrows its name from the natural acrylic stone used in its construction. The residence located in Bavaria, Germany, very close to the Ammersee Lake and overlooks the green forests of Upper Bavaria displaying a contemporary architecture spread over 395 square meters on a 1,200 square meters property. The geometry borrowed from the Bauhaus style and a contrasting bright facade differentiates this residential building from its neighbors. The shell structure of the two cubic volumes is made from cross laminated timber, with clear white mineral plaster finishes. HI-MACS, an innovative mineral material made from a high-tech mixture of 75% natural minerals and pigments and 25% acrylates is widely used in the construction due to its fantastic properties. An over-sized entrance with filigreed details welcomes inhabitants in their new home, opening up opportunities for entertainment and relaxation. The photos below will guide you through the interiors of this spectacular, unique residence. Enjoy!

Casa Club Bosque Altozano by Parque Humano was built in Mexico City, Mexico. Showcasing a distinct contemporary shape rising on a natural ledge in a hill covered area, the residence overlooks Montana Monarca valley. Exploring the panorama through a vertical selection of windows accompanying the stone volume, the house reacts to its surroundings through the choice of shapes and materials. Locally resources stone covers a steel frame, creating an exceptional facade, pierced by an artistic “hole” in the main volume. This display of coloured glass breaks the monotony of the design reminiscent of renaissance perspective drawings. The architects explain how a creative idea improved the overall look and ambiance of the house: “the amber light filtering through the artesian stained glass placed on the celosia window blends with the colour space, generating a chromatic continuity that in the course of the day moves imperceptibly through an endless scale of oranges, reds and yellows. Light also enters through two wood skylights located in the middle of the room, which helps balance the accented light that comes from the window.” Enjoy the wonderful display of modern materials, contemporary shapes and creative inspiration!
