The 'Hugging House' has been conceptually designed by Veliz Arquitecto as a home within a lush tropical forest environment that would work to provide premium amenities for inhabitants and much more. The home maintains an ultra-modern construction that has a bi-level, cantilevered design and helps to merge itself into the surrounding landscape thanks to a series of gardens on the roof. This provides the dwelling with a way to incorporate natural elements into the construction, while also extending this same ethos to the inside space with rock surfaces and ample greenery.
The 'Hugging House' was commented on by Veliz Arquitectos who said, "We have taken advantage of the slopes of the land in order to create visual connections at different heights with the existing vegetation and beyond the landscape, as well as [used] the premises with which we always try to characterize the project.”
