They positively affect our mental and overall wellbeing. With biophilic designs slowly taking over the world of architecture, we\u2019ve curated a collection of designs that we felt were the best of the lot!

Today, he turns his gaze to\u00a0tiny cabins. A bit more quaint than treacherous, Eshtiyaghi\u2019s latest 3D visualization finds an angular, timber cabin nestled atop an idyllic hillside somewhere in the rainforests of Brazil.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_it_noteworthy\"><\/span>Why is it noteworthy?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Dubbed\u00a0the Slope House, the timber cabin maintains a signature triangular frame that\u2019s a thoughtful twist on the conventional A-frame cabin. Defined by two modules, one internal volume hosts the cabin\u2019s bedroom while the other keeps the home\u2019s main living spaces, like the dining area, kitchen, and den. The tiny cabin from Eshtiyaghi is envisioned propped atop a truss system that was specifically chosen to minimize the home\u2019s impact on the preexisting landscape.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_we_like\"><\/span>What we like<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>A biophilic design style has been integrated into the cabin\u2019s interior spaces<\/li>\n<li>Natural plants have been added inside the house as a small garden<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_we_dislike\"><\/span>What we dislike<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The theme and form of the home may be a bit too eccentric for some<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Easyhome_Huanggang_Vertical_Forest_City_Complex\"><\/span>2.
