Golf House in Argentina Features Three Stacked Forms of Rough Unfinished Concrete

The area where a house is built has a huge impact to it. Same is true with the view that we can get while it in. In truth, it adds value to a house. That is why; homes with better views are more expensive. Do you know why? Because nature cannot be bought and it cannot be built. What we can see in one area cannot be seen in others areas. That is why, it is a big plus if you have a lovely view from your house. We have featured different homes which have panoramic views of the ocean, mountains, cityscape and others. Today, we will feature another beautiful home which doesn’t just overlook to a stunning view but also has a unique architecture.

The Golf House is designed by Architect Luciano Kruk using rough unfinished concrete both for the exterior and interior of the house. It is located just north of the coastal town of Pinamar, in Buenos Aires, Argentina and it overlooks to a golf course. The design of the house is already interesting but the views from it are a plus for the beauty of the home. In the interior, it has a simple contemporary design that also has rough concrete finish. It used wood for most parts while different decors and accessories were added to add texture to the home. Let us take a look at the house below.

The home has multiple levels and from every level, a view of the surrounding area is being seen. It also has some aspects of the home being half buried into the sand dune.

The house is designed by the architect to be built from concrete, and kept it unfinished throughout the home, inside and out. And we can see it in all the images of the house.

The interior made use of a neutral color palette that allows the views to take center stage. But it looks nice as an interior and because of the furniture and color palette, it became a cozy space to live in.
