Modern Wooden Homes in Rize's Lush Mountains

An expansive landscape of modern wooden homes perched on a lush green mountainside in Rize, northeastern Turkey. Contemporary, minimalist architecture blending warm timber with glass and stone. Sloped terraces, cantilevered decks, and green roofs harmonize with mossy boulders and tall Pontic spruce. Large floor-to-ceiling windows reveal bright, open interiors with warm wood ceilings, neutral furnishings, and panoramic views of the Black Sea hinterland. Misty clouds drift through dense pine and fir forests; rain-kissed foliage in vibrant emeralds. Soft golden-hour light bathes the structures, emphasizing textures of smooth timber, rough-hewn beams, polished concrete floors, and reflective glass. The scene conveys sustainable design: energy-efficient glazing, passive solar orientation, and native timber joinery. Include a quiet, eco-friendly retreat aesthetic—terraced gardens, wooden walkways, discreet solar panels, and integrated outdoor decks that blend with the landscape.
