MY TRAVEL BUCKET LIST


MY TRAVEL BUCKET LIST






We all have that particular bucket list of the places or designed structures you wanna visit once your lifetime, see it with all open eyes and feel it all by your heart. So, here's a list of beautifully designed structures particular to a space, place and environment, I want to desperately be there to touch, feel and sense everything over there. 


1. COUNTRY CHARM 



Created by an architect and photographer in the Hungarian mountains. Made of wood and glass the exterior is designed to merge the house with forest that surrounds it.


2. SEA SHELTER



Built on the South Fyn Archipelago in Denmark this part of a project which stretchers to 50 shelters in five different designs. They are designed to be used by bird watchers which will ensure peace and quiet for any visitors.


3. WINDOWS ON THE WORLD 



Situated in West Virginia this eclectic of it's use of recycled windows and is owned by a fashion designed and a photographer. The couple built the house themselves quitting their jobs and has a fire pit but no electricity and is lit by the kerosene lamps and candles.


4. NEIGHBOURING CABINS



In New Zealand this cabin is owned by close friends who wanted a place where they could escape together. Painted black and has stripped wood surfaces with no windows and doors instead hatches which can be fastened closed.


5. THE TREEHOUSE




These treehouse in the south east of America were created by Peter Bahouth, the executive director of Greenpeace and a dedicated environmentalist. Filled with antiques, bohemian style furniture and interior design, they are linked by rope bridges and have candle lighting and strings of fairy lights.


6. ROCK HOUSE   



This Corsican getaway has an uninterrupted view of the Mediterranean and is comprised of a main building and three supporting huts. Set among pine and oak forest it has a wrap around terrace it sits against a huge rock boulder.


7. AN ISLAND GROTTO 



Perched on the craggy island in Ontario, Canada, this hideaway draws inspiration from a water filled cave. On the outside it is a simple box shape but inside is polished with a huge window offering views across a lake through oval windows.


8. TREEHOUSE BUBBLE



This contemporary bubble house sits among a string of more conventional tree houses in Germany. Situated between 3-7 m above ground they are designed for the people who want peace and quiet to reflect or work but are also popular as a wedding destination.


9. A BARN



Not as isolated as some of the others this barn in Nova Scotia in Canada neighbors an old school house from the 1800s. there is a gabled roof coupled with a modern interior and an outdoor fire court and seating area.

WHAT IS ARCHITECTURE?

  WHAT IS ARCHITECTURE ? Architecture has no particular definition because it just couldn’t be described in a few words or lines. It is very subjective as it varies from what architecture means to each individual. It is not something you just study or learn but you experience in the process.

As a theorist, teacher, author, practicing architect, and builder, Alexander has taken it upon himself to question everything, from construction details and the effects of color to the process by which a global species makes and remakes its environment and, beyond, to the objective bases of beauty itself.

Christopher Alexander has explored such fundamental questions in greater depth or breadth, or with greater persistence, clarity, and originality of thought.  His theories about the nature of human-centered design have affected fields beyond architecture, including ur
