I keep looking at this house, little does it know, perched high on a hillside in the Cascades, just how much I wish it were mine.

The image itself comes from a book, Wood Houses, from architectural writer Ruth Slavid. You can see more images from the book, as well as a summary here.

Despite the beauty and obvious serenity of the image above, there is a collection of wooden houses, gritty and dark, which I would suggest you spend some time on today. It’s from a project by Vladstudio, and is entitled, Siberian Wooden Houses.
