M ost who choose to build in the field today are for environmental reasons, but the reasons for the building entirely or partially below ground can vary, including the need to minimize the impact of construction on the neighboring building down where space is too tight to laterally expand or building up, using the land for its heating and cooling properties. Or some may simply build soil be hidden from view.
Design and build a house in the ground many challenges, including the cost of excavation, preventing water, on services and drainage, solving problems related to accessibility and design of natural light and adequate ventilation. More often than not, new houses "underground" are partly dug in the ground or embedded in a hill, leaving some open air sides, sun and views.
Take a look at these seven houses partially submerged in the ground and see what you think.
Dutch Mountain, by Denieuwegeneratie (new generation), the Netherlands (2011)
This sustainable house is built in a Dutch wooded heath where the ground rises like a small mountain, absorbing the house itself.
According to the architects, the integration of the house in the isolated hill from the house, but also hid. The owners enter through a cut-out section in the mountain.

a roof-top floor wood corbelled emerges, with its windows facing to maximize the sun's energy and light to the interior. the thermal mass of the house retains heat when needed, and the natural properties of the earth to cool the house in summer.

the house is surprisingly bright and welcoming inside, finished with a mixture of plain exposed concrete and painted finishes. The rooms have an atmosphere of cave with daylight taken down by deep cuts into the hillside, or large spaces, open, south-lit at the front with views towards the surrounding woods.

the Hobbit house, Simon and Jasmine Dale , Wales (05)
Builder Simon Dale built this low impact, low house cost to his family using very basic tools and local natural materials, all dug in the ground or harvested in the surrounding fields. composting toilets, solar panels, spring water by gravity and a wood stove make this sustainable home.

the house is partially dug into the hillside to minimize its visual impact. 30 roughly cut trees form the roof. The walls are a mixture of dry stone and lime-plaster straw bales, and the roof is insulated with straw bales, trimmed and land sown with wild grasses.
Home by César Manrique, Lanzarote, Spain ( 1966)
This famous house was built on the site of a volcanic eruption of the 18th century in Lanzarote, Spain. Smooth out the soil, low building, whitewashed surrounded by cactus and colored steel sculpture emerges from a black volcanic landscape inhospitable.

The rooms at the entrance level contains artist studios with large bay windows opening onto the basalt landscape. In one room of the lava seems to have leaked into it.
Large holes cut in the ground lead in the lower floor, where five spaces were drilled in the volcanic basalt. Stone steps lead through the rock on the lower floor, and n passages arrow with floors painted white lead from cave to cave. In a cave a semi-circular white sofa surrounds a solitary palm reaching through a hole in the ceiling of the cave.

Dani Ridge house, by Carver and Schicketanz , Big Sur, California
This house was designed to disappear and built with sustainability in mind. To preserve the landscape and to conceal the neighbors house uphill, the architects cut a wedge into the hillside and supported the house in it. This allowed the land to ride on a slightly curved roof planted with native grasses. All utilities are hidden under the ground.

glass walls open up the view of the Pacific ocean and collect solar energy, which is stored in the thermal mass of calcareous soils. Retaining walls and earthen roof minimize heat loss. Positioning the air is the windows encouraged west for cooling in the warmer months.
Malator by Future Systems, Wales (1998 )
Located dramatically on a cliff in Wales, this one-room house is just below the ground. With no garden, driveway or outdoor areas, it blends into the landscape. side of the earth, a little glass door in a bath opens to the view. Porthole openings have a maritime feel.

Villa Vals by Christian Muller Architects and Search , Switzerland (08)
Villa Vals is a modern take on the old underground dwellings. Due to the particular sensitivity of the site, the architects home buried deep in a steep slope, leaving the intact nature. As a result, it looks like a vacuum into the hillside rather than seated object on the hill.
