Underground Hill House

Posted on 15 December 2009

Often people are fascinated by a beautiful scenic spot of land and decide to build their dream house there. But those who dream and are fascinated by a beautiful hilly land, they build their homes on the hills. And these people did not wish to obstruct the natural appeal of their surroundings. Believe it or not some people did manage to do that, they built a lavish home that was all underground! Located in Vals, Switzerland, this house is built inside one part of a hill providing a breathtaking view of the hills.

The entire decor of this underground house is done in soft earthy, pastel shades and colors, all in the Endeavour to camouflage it into its natural surroundings. The best part of this house is its lavish courtyard complete with a hot water tub, spot lights for security and lounge chairs for sunbathing.

    Sorry but I dont care what spin is put on it, that interior is UGLY. Who in their “right” mind wants to look at dull grey concrete every direction they turn? Not to mention having no insulation on the walls of any kind. Sorry but 8 inches of concrete only has a R value of about 2. the in the hill idea is pretty cool itself but that interior needs help.
