The Wauhaus Cabin is a minimalist, 20-square-meter retreat designed and built by the Hungarian studio Hello Wood. Completed in 2021, the cabin is situated on a steep hillside in the Zala County hills of Hungary, appearing to float above the ground on stilts of varying lengths. The playful design, inspired by treehouses, offers a new perspective on the surrounding landscape and functions as a guest house, study, or glamping accommodation. The exterior is clad in graphite gray larch planking, creating a contemporary, clean look that contrasts with the warm interior. A narrow bridge provides access to the entrance, where it widens to form a small terrace. Inside, the space is completely covered in natural birch plywood, with oak flooring, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. A key feature is the large, floor-to-ceiling window at one end, which acts as a "fourth wall" and allows the landscape to define the mood of the interior by projecting different colors and light throughout the seasons. Additional round windows add a playful element to the design. Despite its compact size, the Wauhaus features a small kitchenette, and sliding birch plywood doors conceal the bathroom and cabinet, maximizing the use of the limited space. True to Hello Wood's focus on sustainable and durable construction, the cabin is built with eco-friendly materials and is designed for all-season use, promising to last for decades.
