House in Repino is a private house located in Repino, Leningrad region, Russia. The house has a total area of 1000 square meters. The villa community set one strong rule: all residences had to follow a Wright-like style. The design takes the rule into account and interprets the style in an original way. The house is integrated into the landscape. Existing trees are preserved as far as possible, and some trees pass through the canopies to create a rhythm and a closer relation between architecture and nature. Stone, wood and metal are the main materials.
