Every retreat house has their own concept and design and every architects have their own point of view towards the landscape, terrain, and vistas thus might influence the home model that they’re about to built. Like this Stone Creek Camp designed by Andersson Wise Architects, where it is located in Duval County, Texas, USA is a natural retreat home which is taking a full advantage of not just the landscape that features of sun light, wind and rocks, but also the panoramic vistas. The architect stated “We considered the gentle sloping terrain, natural air-conditioning offered by prevailing breezes, and the ever-present sun. Our observations transformed into an idea of structures with deep open porches that appear to be carved out of the exterior brick volumes, revealing transparent walls that slide open to the rooms inside. The buildings are organized around an open courtyard with a large swimming pool and spa, oriented to take advantage of the prevailing breezes during the hot Texas summers.” It’s a natural country home on the outside but as you’re inside it’s rustic interior design with a touch of modernity.
