The earthen home in Almaty, Kazakhstan, designed by Dilyara Mazhitova and Vladimir Radostovets, redefines sustainable architecture through a unique cob structure. Drawing inspiration from desert dunes and ocean waves, the couple combined their skills from law, entrepreneurship, and sound engineering to create a home that feels surreal yet functional. Made from natural materials, the house exemplifies ecological efficiency and low energy consumption, challenging traditional residential design and offering a blueprint for future sustainable architecture projects.
"When people first encounter our house, they struggle to believe it's a residence... People simply don't build homes like this."
"Cob houses are an ancient form of adobe construction... generating little waste and possessing natural insulation properties that reduce energy consumption."
