Meticulously Designed in Nature

So I have always kept an eye on MARK Magazine whether I check its soft copy or its hard one. I grasp a lot of info. from there and THUS, this week I am scanning some images from their issue no.47: (December/January) to tackle the idea of how some architectural structures blend well in/with nature. You will notice that there is this one structure that is reflected on water, the other reflects buildings, while one surrounds itself with trees and the other grows with nature.

Mainly, the buildings I have provided below are visually integrated within the landscape whether they are associated by using natural elements like timber for construction or whether it is the connection to the motion or even the water presence that create that dialogue and relationship among all. Moreover, we realise how these architectural figures correspond to context and create a favourable abstract atmosphere which mirror sometimes the past and initialise an experience that co-exist with nature that proceeds to recognise all entities separately.

#3: V'House// Maastricht (NL)// Wiel Arets Architects 

#4: Riverside Clubhouse// Jiangsu (CN)// TAO

#5: Paläon Complex// Schöningen (DE)// Holzer Kobler Architekturen 

"Designed by Holzer Kobler Architekturen, the building rises above the natural topography like layered earth, thus communicating the archaeological importance of the location. The building's futuristic shape appears to evolve from horizontal plane, referencing the landscape while flaunting the lines that define its volume, ground plan and section. Its offset forms create subtly different internal and external spaces."
