# Hyper-Modern Rural Huts 23o5 Studio's Design for The HUT is Both Traditional and Contemporary By Joey Haar | Published 2018-06-05 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/23o5-studio References: [archdaily](https://www.archdaily.com/895448/the-hut-23o5-studio) Almost by definition, [huts are humble abodes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hitsujigoya), but 23o5 Studio's design for 'The HUT' brings modern, contemporary sensibilities to that traditional form of simple architecture. While the home has many expected traits for a hut, like a [location in a rural area](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haus-am-lagnesberg) apart from an urban center, the rest of the design is impressively forward-thinking. One of the key traits of 23o5 Studio's home design is the incorporation of greenery. The house holds a garden in its interior that has open access to sunlight, rain, and wind. This makes it ideal for growing local Vietnamese plants like lemongrass and star fruit. The [interior garden](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hedge-and-arbour-house) is also part of the inspiration for the nomenclature, as it contributes to an overgrown appearance that's reminiscent of a humbler building.
