As dense urbanization increasingly draws populations together and creates new living conditions, the desire to reconnect to the natural world becomes progressively stronger. As such, contemporary architects have begun creating new residential spaces for relaxation and connection to the outdoors. These modern retreats serve as havens, hideaways and serene sanctuaries for decompression and dwelling. Reinterpreting vernacular shelters and rural cabins, these secluded homes search for simplicity through craft, perspective and orientation.<\/p>\n<p>Exploring the powerful relationships that rural homes create in nature, we\u2019re bringing together the following projects across four continents. Drawn from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.phaidon.com\/store\/architecture\/elemental-living-9780714873176\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Phaidon\u2019s<\/a> book, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.phaidon.com\/store\/architecture\/elemental-living-9780714873176\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i>Elemental Living<\/i><\/a>, the designs are formed in concert with the natural world. Raising environmental and spatial awareness, the projects create unparalleled views, integrate with their surroundings and are made from materials found in the natural landscape. Whether embracing the ocean\u2019s infinite horizon or the grandeur of towering mountains, each residence frames experiences. Collectively, they represent design approaches that merge with and intensify the character of place.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\n\t<img class=\"lazy\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/themes\/architizer\/assets\/images\/blank.png\"\n\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458293679889E16582-Alpa-055106p-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&#038;w=1680&#038;q=60&#038;auto=format&#038;auto=compress&#038;cs=strip\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-srcset=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458293679889E16582-Alpa-055106p-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1680&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1680w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458293679889E16582-Alpa-055106p-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1080w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458293679889E16582-Alpa-055106p-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=760&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 760w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458293679889E16582-Alpa-055106p-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=625&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 625w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458293679889E16582-Alpa-055106p-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=368&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 368w\"\n\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1680px) 1680px,(min-width: 1080px) 1080px,(min-width: 760px) 760px,(min-width: 625px) 625px,368px\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"\u00a9 Ariel Huber\"\n\t\titemprop=\"contentUrl\"\n\t>\n\t<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 Ariel Huber<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\n\t<img class=\"lazy\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/themes\/architizer\/assets\/images\/blank.png\"\n\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294102882E16582-Alpa-055284-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&#038;w=1680&#038;q=60&#038;auto=format&#038;auto=compress&#038;cs=strip\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-srcset=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294102882E16582-Alpa-055284-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1680&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1680w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294102882E16582-Alpa-055284-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1080w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294102882E16582-Alpa-055284-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=760&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 760w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294102882E16582-Alpa-055284-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=625&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 625w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294102882E16582-Alpa-055284-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=368&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 368w\"\n\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1680px) 1680px,(min-width: 1080px) 1080px,(min-width: 760px) 760px,(min-width: 625px) 625px,368px\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"\u00a9 Ariel Huber\"\n\t\titemprop=\"contentUrl\"\n\t>\n\t<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 Ariel Huber<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\n\t<img class=\"lazy\"\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/blog.architizer.com\/wp-content\/themes\/architizer\/assets\/images\/blank.png\"\n\t\tdata-src=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294210225E16582-Alpa-055371-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&#038;w=1680&#038;q=60&#038;auto=format&#038;auto=compress&#038;cs=strip\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-srcset=\"https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294210225E16582-Alpa-055371-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1680&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1680w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294210225E16582-Alpa-055371-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 1080w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294210225E16582-Alpa-055371-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=760&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 760w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294210225E16582-Alpa-055371-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=625&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 625w,https:\/\/architizer-prod.imgix.net\/media\/1458294210225E16582-Alpa-055371-SCREEN.jpg?fit=max&amp;w=368&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format&amp;auto=compress&amp;cs=strip 368w\"\n\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1680px) 1680px,(min-width: 1080px) 1080px,(min-width: 760px) 760px,(min-width: 625px) 625px,368px\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"\u00a9 Ariel Huber\"\n\t\titemprop=\"contentUrl\"\n\t>\n\t<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 Ariel Huber<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/architizer.com\/projects\/the-riparian-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Riparian House<\/a><\/b> by <a href=\"http:\/\/architizer.com\/firms\/architecture-brio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Architecture BRIO<\/a>, Karjat, India<\/p>\n<p>Sited at the foothills of the Western Ghats, this house looks out to the Irshalgad hill fortress and river landscape.
