Elling: a weekend house

This house on Lake Iosif, nearNew York, embodies the possibility of an ideal escape from urban reality This house owners, great lovers of recreation on the water, built specifically to come here on the weekend. From the ground it looks like an ordinary house, which for some reason moved from the shore and now stands on the water. But inside he has his secrets. Inside the house there is a hangar for storage and repair of boats, which "come" into it directly from the lake, through the lift doors.

Since the owners are often here, the house hasall that is necessary for comfortable living: a bedroom, a bathroom, a living room with a huge window, a comfortable sofa and armchairs, as well as a telescope for observing the lake. For outdoor recreation there is a veranda withcomfortable sun loungers. On a wooden floor, heated by the sun, it's nice to walk barefoot. A combination of colors of materials from which the house is made, pleases the eye no less than the surrounding landscape. For this house to be built, the project had tocomply with a huge number of standards and go through more than one approval in the construction department (which takes from 2 to 12 months). The house stands on the border of land and water as if it had always been here. He himself looks like a yacht that is about to leave to plow the waters of the lake. Trees that have been growing on the shore for many years have not been damaged in the construction of the house. The architects managed to fit it into the landscape as if he had always been there. http://www.adventure-journal.com/2014/02/weekend-cabin-lake-joseph-boathouse-new-york/
