A concrete guest house opens onto Californian vineyards

The serrated concrete building opens itself on two sides through large glass walls that face into the Sonoma woods and vineyards.

Mork-Ulnes Architects designed the suite of guest rooms and swimming pool for a private residence named Ridge House in Sonoma, northern Californa, which is located on top of a hill overlooking a pine forest and vineyard.

The guest house is a simple concrete structure, consisting of three rooms with separate entrances. The three volumes are slightly shifted to suit the narrow shape of the lot, but joined by a multi-gabled roof.

Two of the walls of each module are fully glazed, to completely open the interior to the landscape. Rooms also have a small covered terrace from which to immerse yourself, unfiltered in nature.
