I’m in this phase where i look at like 100 different houses a day, looking for some structural inspiration. I’m not in a stage where we might be planning to build a house, but i still like to scavenge the internet for inspiration. This house did strike me as very luxurious but still a place that would feel like home.

It’s 260 sq m and has a 950 sq m garden area and located in La Reserva, Chicureo, Colina, Chile. They have planted a tree in the house atrium and also there are some parts of the house that are built into the mountain side that the house sits on.
