Over the last two weeks searches for “forest house” have doubled on Pinterest, so we’ve rounded up twelve woodland architecture projects. Follow Dezeen on Pinterest!
These popular forest homes – including cabins, hotels and private houses – are located in secluded areas, surrounded by woodland and incorporating large windows to maximise the proximity to nature.
