Home Decorated with Nature: Example from the USA

This single-story cottage on Whidbey Island, north of Seattle, stands on the site of a former farm. The nature here is so beautiful that to avoid cutting down trees and disturbing the ecosystem, architects and designers created and implemented a house project where trees became part of its own facade. Therefore, during construction, no tree was harmed!

The house facade fully continues the landscape. For example, a wooden element in the finish creates the same sense of tranquility as the forest around it, while concrete and stone replicate the natural soil surrounding the cottage. The layout includes a large combined dining kitchen living room, several bedrooms, a bathroom, and a terrace with crimson sunsets.

Inside, the accent is placed on simple forms, with the decor consisting of diffused light, textures of natural materials, and, of course, visual unity with the views from windows that change with the seasons.

The entire interior (furniture, decor, finishing) is made using the same materials (wood, concrete, glass). This creates a unified space where each room flows into another. For example, kitchen facades are chosen in the color of window frames and ceiling in the living room. Floors, work surfaces, and stone masonry on the fireplace create timeless classicism — a monochrome gray combination.

Designers used the same material and color combinations in all rooms. Decorative accents include a log instead of a bedside table in the bedroom or a stone-carved stand in the bathroom. And what else do you need when there are such trees outside the window?
