A. Masow Design Studio's latest creation twists the traditional boundaries of home design and architecture. Instead of building walls to keep nature out, the Tree In the House concept embraces the location's beauty, making nature the focal point of the home.

The house is set in the mountains of Almaty, Kazakhstan, where precipitation during the winter and spring provide plenty of nutrients for the vast forests of fir trees.

Designer Almasov Aibek says the idea of building a home around one of those towering trees is meant to provide "more fusion with nature."

Embracing natural surroundings is a common theme in the studio's work. See more on the studio's website as well as their Facebook page.
