A Modern Life | The Smilgu House

Located on a wooded plot in Lithuania is a beautiful modern structure from Plazma Architecture Studio. Dubbed the Smilgu House, the dwelling seamlessly embraces the natural surroundings with a contemporary nod. The home takes on a geometric form that is clad in exotic timber planks. The bright red facade will eventually weather over time, fading into a silver-like hue that blends with the trees. The front of the home is rather closed off, adding privacy, through the glazed garage is a nice touch.

The structure does feature a generous amount of windows at the rear, adding plenty of natural light throughout. This also helps keep the interior connected with the natural setting. The centerpiece of the home is a double-height living space. Here we find transparent walls that look out over the surrounding forest. The minimalist materials keep the focus on the views, while the glazing both ties everything together and frames the views. This home is a beautiful example of contemporary design.

Take a closer look at the Smilgu House in the images below and find out more about the home from Plazma Architecture Studio. Be sure to stay tuned with The Culture Curators for more outstanding examples of modern architecture coming soon.
