Nature-Embracing Homes

This Ukrainian Home Integrates Green Surroundings Into Its Aesthetic

— August 23, 2016 — Art & Design
Architectural practice Azovskiy & Pahomova has gone ahead and designed an innovative Ukrainian home that, rather than hinging on trying to create a visual and functional separation between indoor dwelling and outdoor environment, actually embraces the outdoors.

This Ukrainian home does this by making use of expansive full-size windows all around the living room, giving users an unhindered view of the greenery outside and creating the illusion that the space is bigger than it is.

Other interesting design aspects of this home include a shower cubicle in the living room and a staggered staircase that goes right through the living room ceiling.

However, the highlight feature of this Ukrainian home is the manner in which it incorporates the outdoor natural beauty into its visual appeal, encouraging inhabitants to avoid fully isolating themselves from their surrounding environment.
