On the northern shore of Lake Balaton, in Zánka, you will find these minimalist, A-frame, lightweight holiday homes. Originally built in direct harmony with nature, the apartment houses were renovated in 2019, and since then they have been operating under the name Zen Garden Resort. The walls and roof structure of small-sized buildings are covered from the outside with slate covering, thus emphasizing the uniform, geometric appearance.

NEW HOW architects | Nové Hamry, Czech Republic

This elegant-looking holiday home was built in one of the most beautiful mountain regions of the Czech Republic, the Ore Mountains. The cool grey aluminum-roofed holiday home is almost wedged between the spruce trees that rise towards the sky and harmonize with the shades of the granite and basalt rocks. The interior, made primarily of wood, has been designed with practicality and simplicity in mind.

Hohensinn Architektur | Bad Aussee, Austria

This weekend house in the city of Bad Aussee might remind us of a real glass palace. Thanks to the slopes of the terrain, the architects had no easy task in this case, but the house is perfectly suited to the geographical conditions. Thanks to the large glass surfaces and the glass barrier used in the interior, the space almost starts to flow, creating the impression that the residents themselves are sitting in nature.

Dom Architektów | Pokrzydowo, Poland

The huge panoramic windows of the wooden house, located in the immediate vicinity of the Brodnica Landscape Park, offer a magnificent view of the wild valley of the Drwęca River from all sides. The structure of the refined-looking cottage is provided by metal legs, which protect the structure from possible floods. The cottage, which is perfectly comfortable for two people, has a rectangular shape, which evokes the design of traditional Polish barns.
