Barren Winter Holiday Homes

Tham & Videgard Arkitekter's Swedish Home Reflects the Landscape

— May 25, 2017 — Art & Design
The Swedish landscape is notoriously hoary, with hundreds of square kilometers of snowswept barrens that have inspired everything from Swedish literature to the Swedish way of life, and Tham & Videgard Arkitekter have further used the landscape as inspiration for 'Atrium House.' In every aspect of the design, the home reflects the environment that it occupies, from the physical structure to the interior design.

Tham & Videgard Arkitekter's Atrium House is a bungalow, which is already fitting considering the flatness of the region (it is on the Swedish island of Gotland, to be specific.) The squat house has a concrete facade similar in color to the snow around it, and its reflective windows cause it to blend in even further. On the interior, the home has only sparse decoration. It's pared down to the basic necessities, letting its occupants appreciate the surrounding nature.
Trend Themes
1. Minimalist Housing - The sparse interior design of Tham & Videgard Arkitekter's Atrium House highlights the potential for minimalist housing to maximize appreciation of surrounding nature.
2. Environment-inspired Architecture - Tham & Videgard Arkitekter's Atrium House reflects the Swedish landscape it occupies, showcasing the potential for environment-inspired architecture.
3. Integration of Natural Surroundings - Tham & Videgard Arkitekter's Atrium House blends into its snowy surroundings, indicating the possibility for integrating natural surroundings into architecture designs.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - Architecture professionals may consider incorporating environmental inspiration and blending structures with surroundings, as demonstrated in Tham & Videgard Arkitekter's Atrium House.
2. Real Estate - Real estate professionals should be aware of increasing interest in minimalist housing and the potential appeal of homes that showcase their natural surroundings, like Tham & Videgard Arkitekter's Atrium House.
3. Interior Design - Interiors professionals may find opportunities to prioritize minimalism and basic necessities, following the design philosophy of Tham & Videgard Arkitekter's Atrium House.
