Looking medieval and modern at the same time, this contemporary sandstone house is bound to bring back the baroque architectural style with a bang. If you've ever had fairytale fantasies, this house is the perfect mix between whimsical dreamy castles and modern architecture.
Designed by Iñigo Esparza Arquitecto in Navarre, Spain, this sandstone house looks traditional and inviting because it mixes geometric cubic designs with an old-worldy feel in every detail in the house.
"The volume of the first floor holds the night-area, with three bedrooms facing the garden (south-west) leaving the dressing-room and bathrooms towards the main facade. Finally the basement contains a multi-purpose space and the facilities room," says the design team at Iñigo Esparza Arquitecto.
