Hill House wins Gold at the Houzee Awards 2025
Architecture Collection records Hill House as the 2025 Houzee Gold Winner in Vacation Home Architecture, Professional. The award page names the project, category and result. This provides a direct independent connection between the mountain residence and its professional recognition. Hill House was designed by ZHCollective | Habitat Architects.
A vacation home anchored to terrain
Hill House rises along a steep site in Solan through a sequence of stepped volumes. The plan follows the contour while rooms frame changing mountain views. Sheltered outdoor spaces extend daily life across seasons. The experience of retreat begins with the land rather than with an imported image. Each level develops a particular relationship with light, view and privacy.
Material choices that belong to the place
Stone and brick give the large residence visual weight and familiarity. Contemporary openings and structural spans keep the composition from becoming imitative. Material restraint allows landscape and changing light to remain dominant. The house belongs to the mountain while retaining a clear contemporary identity.
Architecture for gathering and retreat
A vacation home must support short visits, longer stays and extended family occupation. Hill House answers through clear circulation and adaptable shared spaces. Private areas remain distinct without weakening the sense of connection. The category aligns closely with the project’s architectural purpose and patterns of use. Outdoor rooms expand this flexibility across different seasons and rhythms of occupation.
