The Moss House interior is a perfect example of their twist on vegetation as an inspiration, since it takes cues from the moss stained walls of the river sides, but uses a trendy, graphic pattern that is similar to modern wallpaper patterns. “Cladding the walls entirely in moss would simply have been too much. We wanted something in-between, so we applied the moss in a pattern that looked like wallpaper, creating an ambiguous texture that’s neither artificial nor natural.” In order to unify all the small rooms of the house, the same graphic pattern is emulated on door frames and cable outlets. We can imagine that this repetition was surely a design risk to take, but Nendo Studio hit the mark with their sophisticated use of natural materials and pattern.
