Wooden houses have stood the test of time, captivating our imagination and taking us on a journey through history. Just like Shakespeare's Globe Theatre in 2006, ink and gouache brought to life the beauty and charm of these timeless structures. From the stilt houses of the Bajau laut sea gypsies on Bodgaya Island in Tun Sakaran Marine Park to the colorful houses in the Baltic Sea resort of Boltenhagen, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, wooden homes have adorned landscapes across continents. In East Tyrol, Austria, historic houses proudly stand in Obermauern village center, telling tales of generations past. Meanwhile, Sigtuna in Stockholm County showcases its old town with charming wooden facades that whisper stories from centuries ago. The panoramic photo captures Glaumbaer historical museum in Skagafjordur - Iceland's oldest farm boasting rustic wooden architecture that transports visitors back to a simpler time. Norway's Stavanger offers a view of Ovre Strandgate where traditional wood houses line up gracefully against nature's backdrop. As we venture into Omadal Island within Tun Sakaran Marine Park in Sabah, Borneo, Malaysia; atilt houses around Bodgaya Lagoon remind us of humanity's harmonious coexistence with nature and can not just dwellings but vessels carrying culture and heritage through generations. They symbolize resilience and adaptability while providing warmth and shelter for those who call them home. Whether they are grand theaters or humble abodes by the sea or nestled amidst picturesque landscapes – these wooden marvels continue to inspire awe wherever they stand.
