Located on the secluded rocky cove of Serifos Island in Greece with a โdisarmingโ view of the Aegean Sea, embedded almost seamlessly within the landscape, thereโs a dwelling from the creative minds at Mold Architects thatโs currently making the rounds online. And one can easily see why itโs worthy of viral internet fameโฆ thereโs simply none like NCaved House (at least not within the immediate recollection of the general public).
With a tasteful open exposure to the world while simultaneously offering protection from the elements, the most striking exterior design feature youโll notice about NCaved House is its use of solids and voids, which many have noted resembles a 3D chessboard. From an aerial view, the geometry is less obvious, and NCaved House appears as though itโs simply a part of the natural slope.

The exterior, however, is a little deceptive. Anyone who ventures inside may be surprised at how voluminous this place really is, each room being described as a separate โcavityโ rich with negative space. The levels, on the other hand, partitions the main bedrooms from the living room and guest house. The bedrooms and living room โcommunicate internallyโ while the guest house is independent; a caved staircase connects all three externally.
NCaved House has maintained a minimalist interior using nothing more than stone, wood, glass, iron, and concrete.
