With mountains forming the perfect backdrop, this modern camp home is nestled in a forest, overlooking the shores of Flathead Lake in Bigfork, Montana. Situated on the flanks of a long hill, the camp is slowly discovered through a pebble and earth path leading down the hill to the master house, lodge, and guest house.

Remember we told you about the beautiful treehouse design from the French guys at BubbleTree? Well, now they’ve designed a new and exciting collection, that revolves around a sphere-like shelter. This modern interpretation of the cabin offers a unique experience under the stars while keeping all the comforts of a bedroom suite.

This modern mountain cabin is absolutely one of my favorites. It’s located in an old village by the name of Sugar Bowl (gotta’ love that name), perched on a concrete plinth that lifts the house above the snow-pack ground. The structure itself resembles a box, opening up to its dramatic surroundings – a solid, cedar-clad volume, featuring a bent planar roof form and various glass openings that frame views of snow drifts and pine trees.

Wow, this house is truly phenomenal! ‘One of the era’s modern masterpieces’ they call it, and they are absolutely right. This contemporary mountain cabin sits among wooden chalets deep in a narrow valley, at 4,100 feet, in the magnificent Swiss Alps.

As opposed to the traditional Swiss style, this 1,700 sq. ft. villa features a more experimental, almost industrial feel combined with an approach of integrating architecture into the landscape.

In most cases, emerging architects and designers are confronted with the dilemma of finding clients that are willing to take a chance with young and enthusiastic creatives. This was also the case with the Hardanger Retreat project, although Todd Saunders and Tommie Wilhelmsen were not discouraged. Instead, they have decided to pursue their architectural vision without compromising on originality and respect for the landscape.

This modern cabin is every artist’s dream – Secluded yet in touch with nature. It serves as a small vacation home as well as an artists’ retreat, and in fact was commissioned by a highly creative family including a painter, writer and set-designer.

This beautiful outdoor pavilion is simply perfect for lazy afternoons catching a light breeze. Located in Broadford Farm in Sun Valley, Idaho, the structure is positioned in a natural clearing along the Big Wood River. It’s inspired by local farm buildings, featuring a simple mix of materials combined with a modern take on the traditional pole barn structure.
