Where Sloping Land Meets Modern Design: Haus Max in Austria

Haus Max by Caramel Architekten sits on a sloping site near Vienna, designed for a family of four seeking both quiet countryside living and a large artist’s studio. The lower level houses the 3-meter-high studio, partly embedded into the slope, with direct access to the garden and a covered outdoor workspace.

Above it are the bedrooms, placed at street level with views into the treetops. The garage and entrance sit discreetly on the same level, blending into the facade. Vertical circulation is organized by an open staircase and a glass elevator that connects all floors.

The upper level contains the living, dining, and kitchen spaces, opening to a wide terrace that overlooks the Perchtoldsdorfer Heide. The top floor serves as a multimedia and music room with terraces on both sides. A hammock replaces the railing on the garden side, offering a playful spot to look out toward the vineyards and Vienna beyond.

The house combines reinforced concrete for the lower levels with cross-laminated timber and visible steel above. A pre-greyed timber facade and untreated wood interiors emphasize sustainability. Solar panels across the roof, paired with battery storage and a heat pump, make the home close to self-sufficient.

Get Rid Of Wood Mites

Wood mites are not considered dangerous or toxic. An infestation is unsightly and annoying. Some people have allergic reactions to the tiny hairs and skin that wood mites shed. Symptoms are similar to those caused by dust mites–including itching, skin redness, and respiratory issues. Wood mites are more difficult to spot than to eliminate. What Are Wood Mites? Wood mites are tiny (less than 1/16 inch long) and white–almost translucent–and are bugs related to spiders and ticks.

Identifying Wood Mite Infestations Wood mites do not cause major structural problems but over time they damage furniture and other wood items. Their size makes them difficult to spot but here are some signs that may indicate mite infestations. Dust-Like Particles . May be mite feces and/or shed skin on wood surfaces. White Or Br...

Poor ventilation, plumbing leaks, roof leaks, and other moisture sources also promote mold growth. Natural Mold Killers You usually have some of these natural mold killers...

A stay at Koto at The Point – minimalist eco cabins in Cornwall

Image
[Advertisement – this post is based on a press stay, but all words and opinions are my own.] Chris and I always love visiting Cornwall. The craggy coves and beaches, the fields and moors, the pretty harbour towns, the distinct cultural traditions combined with a thriving contemporary arts scene… It’s unlike anywhere else in the UK, and it draws us back time and time again . And, as we both have Cornish ancestry, it’s somewhere we feel deeply connected to. Over the years we’ve taken numerous trips to the Penwith Peninsula and the area around Falmouth , but recently we got the chance to explore what is for us a lesser-known part of the county when we were invited to review Koto at The Point – a new cluster of design-led eco cabins set on the north Cornish coast, between the villages of Rock and Polzeath. A collaboration between family-run leisure business The Point and sustainable prefab specialists Koto, Koto at The Point sits on the site of a former airstrip, next to The Point...
