The architecture of this house is unusual for our latitude.As, incidentally, and the rustic style in general. But once upon a time the chalet style was unusual for us. And now, what Russian does not want to have a house in the chalet style?! This is a real house built, located in the state of Colorado, USA. The interior spaces - stunningly beautiful and cozy in the highest sense of the word - are complemented on the outside by an equally grandiose facade, decorated in . The wooden base does not at all suggest the old-fashionedness of the house, rather, on the contrary - the building is an example of a combination of modern developments and anachronistic suburban trends that do not lose popularity at all. Sergey Timofeev, architect: - Of course, the house is designed taking into account the landscape and fits into it, using all the advantages of the differences in the site on which it is built. The use of natural materials in the decoration finally "plants" this building in the environment, paying tribute to the ecology and historical architecture of the times of the colonization of America. studiofd.ru Three full floors include a garage,a living room, four bedrooms and other utility rooms. The total area of the interior space is 403 square meters, despite the fact that the building is not linear and tries to use every unevenness of the surrounding area as effectively as possible. Sergey Timofeev, architect: - From a construction point of view, such a house needs a good concrete foundation, which will make it possible to make a semi-basement due to the difference in the landscape. The upper floors are a traditional frame structure based on wooden beams, which must definitely remain in the interior. studiofd.ru The first floor, which is the main one, is immediatelyThe entrance creates an impression of comfort and monumentality — heavy furniture, dark halftones, wood everywhere and a huge double-sided fireplace right in the middle. This is complemented by a stunning view from the window. Sergey Timofeev, architect: — The plan shows clear zoning and allocation of the master zone, which is given over to the entire upper floor, where in addition to two bedrooms there is a studio room. The guest zone is given over to the entire semi-basement floor: here, in fact, another small house is hidden, with its own kitchen, two bedrooms, a living room and even its own exit to the veranda. These zones are separated by a common first floor, which is almost entirely given over to the kitchen and living room — this is a classic solution for the rustic style. Thus, we get a house in which the owners and their guests may not cross paths for weeks! studiofd.ru Sergey Timofeev, architect:— Speaking about whether it is possible to build a house in this style in Russia, I would say — it is necessary. This is a great alternative to a log house. Due to the combined materials, we create the feeling of a wooden house, while saving on materials and using wooden elements only in the construction of the post-and-beam system. studiofd.ru The plan is taken from the site houseplans.com.
