The Mullin Lodge is a very special project which studio AVON Arquitectos completed in 2018. Information technology's a house located in Southern Republic of chile, in a rural area surrounded by native forests. Its blueprint is a modern estimation of the traditional pocket-sized dwellings specific to the region. That means opaque facades all effectually except for a unmarried glazed side. In guild to maintain this quondam look throughout the exterior, the architects used recycled wooden shingles on the facades. Of course, for every traditional feature at that place'southward also something modern to rest things out. Inside, lots of the non-structural walls take been removed and this results in a continuous wait and very clean and blusterous spaces.
