House in the Slope / 77 Studio architecture

A House Embedded in a Riverside Slope in Poland. The single-family house designed by the 77 Studio architecture studio is marked by particular sensitivity to place, view, and nature. The "House in the Slope," harmonizing with the riverside landscape, provides its residents with a sense of privacy and closeness to nature.
