Living in the forest does not necessarily have to be like Little Red Riding Hood’s story. It can actually be a very contemporary and luxurious experience, just like in the case of Casa BB by BAK Architects. Designed by Luciano Kruk and Maria Victoria Besonias, this stunning residence is located in the forest of Mar Azul, Villa Gesell, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
It is a 1,236-square-foot residence with three bedrooms (including a large master bedroom), a spacious social area, and generous outdoor spaces. Thee main materials were used for the construction of this modern fairy tale home: exposed concrete, pine, and glass. For anyone who loves an intimate connection with nature, this here is definitely a dream home.

So, we pay a fortune for glass walls to feel “intimate” with nature, only to realize we’re just the main course for the local wildlife. Truly, the modern fairy tale: you’re the wolf, and the architect is the woodsman.
Haha, well spotted! Glass does blur those boundaries beautifully. At least the view is spectacular. We aim for connection, not a wildlife buffet. Thanks for the witty take on modern living in the forest.
