"Designed by Yemail Arquitectura, Punta Casitas Cabin 1 is a remote mountain retreat situated at 3015 meters above sea level within the rocky ridges of Lake Tota in Colombia. Completed in 2022, the 549-square-foot cabin was conceived as a shelter that evokes the history of primitive human dwellings while blending seamlessly with its mystical, rugged environment. Inspired by naval architecture, the design features a compact, three-story volume that maximizes space through a vertical distribution of functions. The exterior is clad in yellow pine wood with an amber hue, which is contrasted by a canopy of dark clay tiles supported by large eaves. These materials were chosen to resonate with the surrounding landscape and to reflect the effects of time and weather. Inside, the material palette is warm and natural, with exposed wood complemented by woven rugs, clay lamps, and visible pipes and mechanisms. The layout unfolds over three levels, featuring an open-plan kitchen and dining area on the main level and a tatami mat, a suspended desk, and the main bedroom with panoramic views of Lake Tota on the upper levels. A suspended terrace further blurs the lines between indoor and outdoor living. Much of the cabin's artisanal quality comes from local artisans from communities near Lake La Coca, who created custom fixtures like the clay lamps. Credits Architects: Antonio Yemail, Jimmi Palacio, Daniel Molina, and Martín Jimenez of Yemail Arquitectura Construction: Edgar Contrera, Erney, and Henry Riobamba Photography: Mateo Pérez Manufacturers: EnTierra (for clay lamps from La Chamba)"
