colombia-based manuel villa arquitecto has completed a habitable polyhedron dwelling
for a backyard in bogota. designed for a couple and their newborn son, the aim of 'polyhedron pod'
is to create a space separate from the domestic environment for leisure activities such as reading.
the mini-villa also serves as a bridge to reconnect with nature and the surrounding landscape.
the design features an expansive wooden deck leading up to a set of glass and steel doors.
built-in furniture in the interior includes a desk, cupboards, shelving, and a bench.
the walls are left in its natural, untreated teak form on the inside, while a black,
honeycomb-patterned skin wraps the outside.
the shape and algorithm of the structure was determined after a number of model studies.
the finished form was chosen for its versatility, adaptability and structure.
