Lofted Forest Home: Organic Curves & Natural Materials. Good things come to those who wait – particularly in a work of uniquely detailed and highly curved architecture.

The perimeter of the structure is pushed out into the forest around it, curving in and out to create views as well as a sense of intimacy with the coniferous and deciduous tree cover.

Walking around the castle without a tour guide is prohibited. So, I got my ticket and waited in line for my number to be called- much like waiting for your number at a deli counter. But the line moved fast and soon… …I was in. The castle amazingly survived despite heavy bombing during WW 2 in Bavaria.
