"Utrecht Cabin, or Recreational House, is a 40-square-meter contemporary cottage in a rural area north of Utrecht, Netherlands. Completed around 2014, the cabin was a collaboration between Zecc Architecten and interior designer Roel van Norel. It is built on the footprint of a former greenhouse and offers a serene getaway for the owners. The cabin features an asymmetrical gable roof clad in slate stone, with a chimney. The exterior combines a largely closed side with one that is highly adaptable, featuring movable horizontal shutters made of Western Red Cedar. When closed, these shutters blend seamlessly with the building's facade, offering privacy and a homogenous appearance. When open, they reveal a full glass wall, connecting the interior with the surrounding woods and a grassy clearing. The interior of the tiny house is defined by fine wood craftsmanship and clever use of space. All facilities—including the kitchen, wood stove, bathroom, and storage—are integrated into a single, handmade oak wall. The space is divided into a front living and dining area and a rear bedroom and bath. A sliding wooden panel can separate these sections for greater privacy. Above the rear section, a mezzanine provides extra sleeping space. Light enters through the full glass wall and a vertical window in the bedroom that extends to the roof's ridgeline.
