Woodland Cabin by De Rosee Sa Architects

Set on the edge of a wood, this new cabin replaces an old delapidated structure. The openings respond to different views and approaches to the cabin to capture the natural beauty of the surroundings. The internal space has been designed for various uses including working, sleeping and socialising, and is heated by a woodburning stove.

Timber for the main structure and cladding have been locally sourced and milled from the surrounding forest.
