We don’t know about you but we have always loved homes that are surrounded by trees and vegetation. There is something so relaxing about them. Okay, maybe they don’t have those spectacular views or the always-play-on mood you associate with beach houses but they are just so connected with nature. And this home rendered out(computer generated) by Garciarchitek is a glowing example of what we are trying to point out here. 
The juxtaposition of such lifestyle extremes – fixed-space suburban living and nomadic world-travel dwelling – makes for a fascinating conceptual challenge. It was, in fact, similarly neighboring opposites that gave rise to the idea in the mid of design student living on a lovely nature-filled campus but surrounded by suburbia on all sides.
John Paananen took it upon himself to discover what would happen if he were to make over one of the most mobile kinds of traditional buildings – the tipi, with inspiration from its yurt, tent and igloo cousins – turning it into a stationary home with all of the creature comforts to be found in contemporary suburbs.
Instead of a portable and organically-evolved design, he chose to force-fit the general shape and style of a conventional nomadic dwelling into the space and settings. Rather than put the emphasis on easy construction (and deconstruction) for living on the move, the construction methods and materials follow those of a typical suburban house – complete with a wood frame and artificial siding (no poles and soft materials one would expect).
The results? a translucent-skinned, semi-solid structure that lacks the mobility of a historic yurt, tent or tipi – almost a parody of (or at least a commentary on) the static nature of modern dwellings. Furnished in clean and casual style, the interior gives a strange not to nature via a forest printed in photo-realistic fashion on the wall. So is this art, architecture or something else? That only you can judge – but it sure looks more comfortable than what most people take camping. Still, if you are looking for one on sale look elsewhere: this one-off design was anything but cheap and easy to buy parts for and assemble – which, in a way, is part of the point.
You may have the best of surroundings but comfort is the defining perimeter which makes a place called home. These images reveal an ideal comfortable home made to relieve you of the daily work stress. What makes it so special are the contrasting ceiling heights for instance the low ceiling in the living room and the high one in the kitchen. Double story windows have been used to ensure maximum light entry into the house which makes the surrounding radiant. It may not be a great idea for a town where there are space constraints but in a country side where the space is all yours, such uneven ceiling patterns and double story windows could make a great architecture idea.
Looks like a tree hugger designed this one! The space reflects a deep sense of oneness with natural surroundings. The living room area opens into the view of a lovely tree. The golden, wooden and green hues and the tons of natural lighting give the room the feel of walking through a forest in the spring time. Elements like bowls of fruit and the multi textured wooden furniture used in the living room, kitchen and the bedrooms convey the diversity of nature. The bedroom retains a sense of more privacy with the use of monochromes. The intelligent use of the natural light itself to become a part of the décor reinforces the spirit of natural surroundings.
