vernacular architecture

Vernacular architecture captures the soul and history of an area or larger region through distinctive building designs, construction methods, choice of materials, and more. On this page you can explore a wide range of projects that showcase a variety of architectural styles from around the world. These designs range from urban to rural houses and from compact cabins to spacious family retreats. What they all have in common, however, is the way they integrate vernacular cues in a contemporary design. Some of these houses and cabins give a nod to traditional architecture in subtle ways. Others pair elements of vernacular architecture with strikingly modern details to highlight the beauty of both styles.
