Alpine architecture we love! As architects and design lovers, we value architecture from around the world and share work that inspires. Not just your ordinary shed home, Scout by .studios re-imagines traditional alpine architecture with a modern edge.
Perched above Lake Wānaka with uninterrupted views of the Southern Alps, this 175m² retreat is designed to slow you down, switch you off, and connect you to nature through thoughtful, site-responsive design.
Highlights include a sunken living room with a frameless picture window, a tiled dining banquette that opens up the views, and an outdoor bathtub perfectly positioned to take in the alpine landscape.
