Small House

Mind-Blowing Modern Small Home Looks Like It Was Carved From Stone


This incredible small home, located in a mountain ski town in New Zealand is like nothing we have ever seen before! Constructed out of structural straw and rendered in lime, this home looks as though it has been carved out of stone. 

Using straw to construct the home gave builder Evan the ability to create something incredibly special, with beautiful rounded shapes throughout. The end result looks like a home that was more sculpted than built.

Landscaping around the home, including a beautiful pond designed to reflect light onto the ceiling, help this stunning home settle beautifully into the landscape and meld into the background of the mountain that helped to inspire the build. 

Enjoy the full tour of this spectacular home. To find out more about Evan and his amazing projects, you can visit his website
