Landscape as structure, not decoration.
A collection of conceptual studies investigating how buildings can emerge from terrain, vegetation, and climate rather than sit on top of them.

This project explores the relationship between contemporary residential architecture and its surrounding landscape, focusing on seamless integration rather than visual contrast.

The landscape concept is structured around native woodland species, natural ground transitions, and minimal hardscape interventions. Planting zones follow existing site topography, supporting water infiltration, seasonal change, and long-term ecological stability.

Key landscape principles:

• Integration of native grasses, shrubs, and forest-edge species

• Soft transitions between built form and natural terrain

• Stone and concrete elements used as terrain extensions, not boundaries

• Low-maintenance planting adapted to local climate conditions

The project reflects a broader approach to landscape architecture in 2025: designing spaces that age naturally, respond to climate stress, and reinforce the identity of place rather than overwrite it.
