PAN-cabins in Hedmark, Norway by sivailarkitekt espen surnevik asTuesday, March 12th, 2019Article source: sivailarkitekt espen surnevik as When the PAN-Clients asked me to develop the PAN-project in their forest, I had to use a long time to reflect on the task, theme and commission. There was a big will to try to develop something unique for the forest that could relate to the beautiful landscape and its colours, from the rocks to the small plants and big trees. Tove Jansson – The particular history of the area, where people from Finland immigrated in the sixteenth century and settled, has created a pan-Nordic culture with mixed traditions that are very strong and interesting. This aspect lead to dive into the Finish artist, and writer, Tove Janssons work. Janssons work is most famous for her creation of the Mu’mins, but her texts and drawings define a whole mythology, I will say, created around the Nordic view on nature and the Finish forests. For Me it represents a genuine feeling of how the Nordic individual relates to the long distances between settlements in rural Scandinavia, the loneliness, the dark winters, and the cold climate. Jansson puts words and illustrations to the illusions that is created inside the mind, of fear and the worm security, that occurs in us all when in contact with the bear elements of the Nordic nature.

Cabin Nipe in Risør, Norway by Lie Øyen arkitekter asMonday, January 14th, 2019Article source: Lie Øyen arkitekter as The small summer cabin is built on a steep rocky site at Nipe in Risør, southern Norway. Restrictions on the site limited the cabin to one floor. Rather than ruining the worn rock to create an even site, the one floor was raised on concrete pillars, – some thin and some hollow. This way the site was left with its original landscape, and the underside of the house came in handy for purposes such as storage, hot tub and hammocks as well as creating the main entrance. The cabin contains of three bedrooms, a bathroom, a multipurpose room including a kitchen area and a fireplace both indoors and outdoors.

Ghost Cabin in Seattle, Washington by SHED Architecture & DesignMonday, December 24th, 2018Article source: SHED Architecture & Design When contractors were working on the Chophouse Row project in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood back in 2013, they made a startling discovery. Buried several feet below the eclectic mix of historical buildings they discovered the foundation of a small house—the remnants of a pioneer settlement dating back to the late 19th century. Contractors began calling the structure “Grandma’s House,” and when the project hit some inevitable construction delays, the crew joked about Grandma’s ghost coming back to slow their progress.

City Cabin in Seattle, Washington by Olson KundigSunday, December 16th, 2018Article source: Olson Kundig Located in one of Seattle’s most established residential areas, City Cabin’s design answers the client’s desire for a private urban retreat that would connect her to nature. Siting the 2,400-square-foot house on the northwest corner of the lot maximizes garden areas on the south and east sides. The home’s staggered footprint allows for more glazing, which increases sun exposure and garden views from every room. With the goal of net-zero energy use, the home’s design incorporates key sustainability features such as photovoltaic panels and an air-to-water heat pump. Planting mature trees and dense greenery onto the site helped transform an ordinary urban infill lot into a private refuge.  Image Courtesy © Aaron Leitz
