  1. Morphology and Concept

Veliz Arquitecto: The main structure has an ovoid or spherical shape, evoking a cocoon or suspended nest, suggesting an integration with nature from a biomimetic perspective. It is elevated on a lightweight structure, which reduces the impact on the terrain and enhances the relationship with the surrounding vegetation.

  1. Materials and Construction

The structure appears to be made of bamboo or wood, with a latticework that provides support and visual permeability. The large glass opening at the front acts as a viewing platform, allowing natural light to flood the interior and providing panoramic views of the surroundings.

  1. Relationship with the Environment

The cabin is surrounded by a structural wooden latticework that creates a visual background that reinforces its integration with the landscape. Vine vegetation can be seen on the columns and lower walls, promoting a sustainable design. The wooden staircase and walkways provide access in a fluid and natural way.

  1. Use of the Outdoor Space

Furniture elements have been arranged in the lower area using natural materials, such as stone or wooden tables and benches, in a space that seems intended for socializing or relaxing. The presence of low vegetation and rocks provides a more naturalistic feel, respecting the surroundings.

  1. Spatial Sense and Functionality

The cabin's elevation provides privacy and security, as well as improved ventilation. The large glass opening allows a direct visual connection with the forest, enhancing the feeling of immersion in nature. Its morphology fosters a unique sensory experience, combining innovative design elements with the essence of a natural refuge.
