This home and recording studio for a musician features overhanging roofs and perches on a rocky hillside overlooking a dam in Zimbabwe
Gota Dam Residence: A House on a Rock is designed by London-based practice Studio Seilern Architects with architect Muzia Sforza.
The 1,500-square-metre dwelling is sandwiched between two pairs of overhanging timber-clad slabs, which direct views to the artificial reservoir as well as providing shade from the strong sun for the main living spaces.
"The area is, to say the least, breathtaking and awe-inspiring, and deserved a piece of architecture that is equally awe-inspiring," said the architects. "The cantilevered roofs and stretched terraces give the house the appearance of being gently floating above the rock."
