It looks like an old wood cabin but inside it is a masterpiece of design
Swiss architects have a weakness for those projects that reserve surprises.
They always exploit the beauty of natural landscapes, and they often create homes that seem simple but in reality conceal jewels of modern architecture and design.
This is certainly the case of this house located in the Canton of Ticino built by the Buchner Bründler Architects.
As a matter of fact, it looks like an old wood cabin but when you look inside, it reveals a completely unexpected appearance!
The house, which had been there for 200 years, was modernized by the Buchner Bründler Architect studio following a peculiar but minimalist line.
