The House in Espoo is a spiral-shaped abode that is as rustic-looking as it is contemporary. The roofing extends all the way around of the exterior to create a textured look that adds to the sinuous nature of the structure. Instead of being smooth like a snake, the House in Espoo looks more like a large twisted twig.
Designed by Olavi Kopose, the House in Espoo is located in Finland. The two-level structure even continues the texture inside. The walls and ceilings look almost thatched, which adds another dimension to the otherwise modern minimalist interior decor. What really sets apart the design of the house are the built-in appliances and fixtures which have an organic aesthetic that adds to the rustic nature of the design.
