The office in the woods by Selgascano architects will help even the most plugged-in workers feel in union with nature.
It was designed by Jose Selgas and Lucia Cano, architectural partners who wanted to build a structure in a forest near Madrid, Spain -- yet the project was not for a client, but for themselves.
With solarium style glass walls that bend over in semi-arches, Selgascano's office in the woods allows for ample daylight to come in, a view of the stars by night, and a constant sense of being surrounded by nature.
