The design of the house on stilts, better known asThe house, called "Blue Cube", was designed and brought to life by specialists from the architectural company Ahti Westphal. It is located in the north of the United States, in a place called Rainy Lake near the Canadian border. The main feature of this building is a small veranda, the walls of which are fabric canvases woven from paper threads of a bright neon color. It is very unusual to see such a material in combination with simple unplaned boards, which make up most of the building. Moreover, in our view, ordinary people should have a veranda equipped with panoramic glazing so that you can admire the stunning landscapes surrounding the house. However, specialists decided that this solution would be optimal for this area.
A durable blue fabric that is the latestdevelopment in the field of construction, is distinguished by increased reliability, extraordinary durability, resistance to high humidity and bright sunlight. Thanks to it, the interior is filled with a soft blue light, pleasant for the eyes. In addition, everything that is happening outside is clearly visible through it.
To protect the house from flooding andorganically fit into the hilly landscape, one part of it was placed on piles. This creates a feeling of boundless flight and incredible lightness, as if it is about to spread its sails and set sail.
Surely, many of us would like to find ourselves in this paradise for at least a day. And you?
