This all-white summer house outside Moscow by architect Peter Kostelov has sunbeds and a see-saw but no windows or doors.
The house was designed for a Russian TV programme in which the clients and the architect meet only once to exchange ideas before the architect takes the project through to completion.
The clients were an active family who wanted their dacha, or summer house, to be a place for sport and exercise as well as sunbathing, barbecues and parties.
The only requirement from the parents was that the architect didn’t add a basketball court, so this gave Kostelove “complete freedom for fantasy and creativity,” he said.
Kostelov designed a building that’s open to the elements, with rolled-up blinds fitted into the wall openings to provide shelter when needed.
The built-in sunbeds are positioned alongside a small sunken bathing area at one end of the house.
A small cubicle with a bucket of water suspended above it allows residents to cool off after a session in the sauna room next door.
