1st door
cozy

There are a few words for the HOLIDAYARCHITECTURE editorial team that we consider carefully before giving them a place in our texts. “Cozy” and “sheepskin” for example. Or “cuddly”. But they fit the Advent season like a black turtleneck pullover fits …well you know it.

We wish you a cozy, cuddly December!

These houses set the right mood:

House

Birkedal

The architecture of Birkedal House is as poetic as its name. The holiday home on the Danish island of Møn is inspired by children’s fantasy worlds and consists entirely of round rooms.

House

Black Shed

The Black Shed holiday home on the Scottish Isle of Skye at the foot of the Macleod’s Table mountains is inspired by the old sheds of the area and painted black to reflect their style

Apartment // Hotel

Fuchsegg Eco Lodge

Natural diversity. The Fuchsegg Eco Lodge nestles between meadows, forests and mountains. A multifaceted place that combines the advantages of a hotel with proximity to nature. The fact that the focus here is on sustainability and regionality is already clear from the architecture.

B&B

Breac.House

Das B&B Breac.House liegt in der schroffen, rauen Landschaft der Halbinsel Horn Head im nördlichen Zipfel der Republik Irland – mit weitem Blick auf den Atlantischen Ozean und die Derryveagh

Hotel

Hotel Sturm

At Biohotel Sturm, the architecture of the 1980s takes on new dimensions, artfully and subtly combining the past with the present. A multi-layered hotel with a clear philosophy and sustainable concept in the centre of the Rhön’s cultural landscape.

House

Mezi Lukami

The holiday home at the foot of the Western Carpathians is a sensitive reconstruction of an old wooden house and a virtuoso combination of craftsmanship, tradition and modern design.

House

Bauernhof Vogtland

A cultural monument in a secluded location: surrounded by fields, dense woodland and a babbling brook, the Vogtland farmhouse is one of the rare half-timbered houses in the region. A historical experience in simple beauty.

House

Schnepfegg 52

Schnepfegg 52 is an 18th century Bregenzwald farmhouse situated at an altitude of 900 metres on a pass road between Schnepfau and Biza in Vorarlberg, Austria.

By the way, you will find the first door of this year’s Advent calendar at this HOLIDAYARCHITECTURE house:

Holidayarchitecture door for 1st December

House

Villa Baronessa & Villa Baronessina

Set in a lush Mediterranean garden near the historic center of the wine village of Kaltern am See, you will find an extraordinary ensemble of buildings: a classic 1950s villa and her extravagant modern “little sister”.

So, this is Christmas… again! Throughout Advent, the Urlaubsarchitektur team will be presenting daily gift tips, stories and inspiration for architects, travel enthusiasts and for Christmas grinches, too!
