Exterior Curved Roofline Concrete Siding Material House Design Photos and Ideas

C.F. Møller Architects implements an abundance of brick in an homage to another of their projects, the elegant Aarhus University.
On a plateau three hours outside Mexico City, architect Fernanda Canales created a wild, nature-fueled vacation home for her family surrounding four courtyards. Celebrating the flat, rugged environs, she melded a facade of red, broken brick with warm concrete and wood interiors. To add extra height, she turned to terra-cotta tiled barrel vaults.
Niko Architect and landscape firm Ecopochva designed a Moscow home that doesn’t play by the rectilinear rules of conventional architecture. Vegetation blankets the home’s concrete form, and its walls sweep upward and outward to become roofs. Molded floor-to-ceiling windows curve to grant panoramic views of the backyard and swimming pool.

The landscape engulfs the strategically positioned home, hiding it from the street and from nearby neighbors.
The barrel-vaulted roofs that top the bedroom wing and the living areas help collect rainwater into the underground cistern and "create a new topography."
Located on a relatively flat and remote 2.5-acre plot, Casa Terreno occupies two temperate zones (forest and prairie) on a sparsely populated mountain in Valle de Bravo, Mexico.
The home's sloping roofline sweeps upward from an enclosed courtyard. The character of the house changes as light hits the mix of materials—from rough stone to sleek black aluminum—throughout the day, giving it a sense of constant motion.
After living ten years in another house he designed in Yokahama, Hosaka and his wife decided to move to Tokyo for an easier commute.
Like the everyday rhythm of the tides, the home's architecture ultimately reflects the idea of movement.
The addition was created with custom concrete that matches the surrounding buildings, as well as the tones of the London stock brick.
Concrete gently frames the limestone exterior.
The roof of Tidal Arc House brings desirable morning sunrises into the home while shading it from the rest of the day's hot sun.
To further reduce the possibility of water seepage, a vaulted structure was used for the third floor extension, so rainwater flows down from the roof and drains away.

The master bedroom is enclosed on three sides, emphasizing the view outward, while the low-slung roof and deep eaves create a sense of horizontality. The bed, nightstands, and light shelf are made from white oak to match the floors; all were designed by the architects.
A two-story, open-air light well separates the private master suite from the main living areas while bringing natural light and views into the core of the house.
The journey begins with a series of massive concrete walls that extend out into the landscape, creating a series of outdoor spaces and drawing visitors in.
"We carved away the original wall on the boundary, revealing the new extension behind,
New, structurally sound walls allowed them more freedom to design the interior spaces.
Thick extruding windows help prevent rainwater seepage.
