The houses have very precise, angular shapes and the dimensionally stabile Lunawood thermowood is a perfect material choice as it will retain its original shape in all climate conditions.
One of the houses has been treated with pigmented wood oil to preserve the original brown tone of thermowood.
The atmosphere in the village is nearly mystical on the day of the photo shoot. The architecture of the houses is modern and unique with a twist of Asian traditions. At the same time, the village blends so naturally and gracefully into the surroundings. The beautiful silver gray tone of the weathered thermowood, and the stone walls between the plots make a great combination in the lush, vulcanic environment.
