LODGES | Cabin | Constructed in 2024 by EERI Studio (Everyday Essentials Research Institute), the Spark Lodges are a set of modular, prefabricated holiday cabins located at the YDD Resort in Changsha, China. The three-story lodges, with a floor area of 76 square meters, were designed for a tourist village in Jinkeng, Hunan, and draw inspiration from the area's rich history, particularly its connection to the fireworks industry. The design harmoniously blends contemporary industrial materials with the natural, rural surroundings of rice fields and the distant Lianyun Mountains. The exterior of the cabins is composed of green-painted steel frames, pine planks, and most notably, translucent polycarbonate panels that wrap around the roof and certain wall sections. The polycarbonate material, in particular, was chosen for its cost-effectiveness and ability to create a dynamic and "sparkling" effect as light conditions change. These translucent forms give the structures a striking, ethereal quality, especially when viewed against the backdrop of the rice fields and mountains. The interior of each lodge is designed to create a continuous and changing viewing experience for its occupants. On the ground floor, large, three-sided, floor-to-ceiling windows provide a panoramic, horizontal view of the rice fields, intentionally blurring the line between inside and out. Moving up to the second-floor bedroom, the windows become smaller and more strategically placed, framing "close-up, square-shaped paintings" of the landscape and ensuring privacy. The highest level is a loft space that opens up vertically, offering an expansive view of the distant mountains and framing it like a long, vertical Chinese Shan-shui painting.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Borzestova is a complex of two summer houses with a built-up area of 35 m². The project was evaluated several times while working on it. This resulted from changes in the needs of investors as well as changes taking place in the immediate vicinity of the plot. The guidelines changed, but the idea of the project remained the same to develop the plot in a way that connects people with nature. Investors wanted to share the charm of the place with others hence the decision to make houses available for rent. Despite the neighboring buildings, the project retains its intimacy. It allows you to enjoy silence and spend time away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The plot, apart from the outline of the buildings, is a biologically active area (permeable surfaces are grass or aggregate stabilized with a geogrid) supplemented with recreational facilities. The shape of the building draws from the values of traditional Kashubian architecture. A gable roof with a symmetrical angle of inclination was used, as well as uniform colors of the facade and roof covering. The contrast of window recesses and facades, as well as the form of roofing over the entrances to the building, bring to mind elements of classic Kashubian houses. And it is on these elements that you can notice the play of light and shadow, which, depending on the season, give the buildings new views. The dark color of the facade boards is achieved using the Japanese Shou Sugi Ban wood burning method. The glazing of the summer house is a screen filled with nature - the forest wall and the water surface of the lake, visible from between the trees. The whole thing was designed using frame technology. | https://static.wixstatic.com/media/a0ba0f_d3b702496cf3419fa995cefe80c4d322~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_1900,h_1300,al_c,q_90/BORZESTOVA%20Cabin-YONO%20Architecture-Nate%20Cook%20(1).jpg Please Wait BORZESTOVA Cabin-YONO Architecture-Nate Cook (1).jpg BORZESTOVA Cabin-YONO Architecture-Nate Cook (2).jpg BORZESTOVA Cabin-YONO Architecture-Nate Cook (3).jpg 1/2 0 Product 4.6K Views 12 0 Pin Pin Private Public x Appreciators Appreciated Appreciate Please Log in BORZESTOVA Cabin 22-330 Kaszuby, Poland Architects: YONO Architecture YONO Architecture Architecture Office Poland Area: Year: City: Client: 46.9 m² 2022 Kaszuby Borzestova Construction: Category: RESIDENTIAL Project Type: Cabin Post Type: Building Country: Poland Photographers: Nate Cook the Architects Description: Borzestova is a complex of two summer houses with a built-up area of 35 m².

RESIDENTIAL | Modular House | Happycheap House is a prefabricated, modular, and affordable prototype home located in a suburb near Stockholm, Sweden, designed by Tommy Carlsson Arkitektur. Completed around 2014, the house was a response to a housing market that Carlsson saw as being dominated by expensive, aesthetically stagnant prefab villas. The 110-square-meter home features a geometric, asymmetrical volume with a roof of varying pitches, clad in corrugated galvanized iron to reduce costs. This angular form is mirrored inside with a series of angled plywood surfaces and spaces. The design is based on a modular frame system of self-supporting laminated plywood sandwich panels, which allows for fast and affordable factory construction. Inside, the house showcases the raw plywood material extensively, creating a warm and minimalist feel. An angular staircase connects the ground floor, which includes the living, dining, and kitchen areas, with the upper floor, which contains three bedrooms. One of Carlsson's goals was to question conventional living, challenging notions of necessary living space and promoting affordability. The modular construction and the ability to expand the living area as needed were also central to the design.

INFRASTRUCTURE | Airport | Queen Alia International Airport continues the practice’s explorations of the airport terminal as a building type and sets out a vision for an environmentally sensitive, regionally apt, airport architecture. Designed to serve as the main gateway to Amman – one of the oldest continually inhabited cities in the world – its design resonates with a sense of place and local culture. Strategically the building secures Amman’s position as the main hub for the Levant Region. Logistically, it allows the airport to grow by 6 per cent per annum for the next twenty-five years, increasing capacity from 3 million to 16 million passengers per annum by 2030. In response to local building expertise and Amman’s climate, where summer temperatures vary markedly between daytime and night time the building is constructed entirely from concrete, the high thermal mass of the material providing passive environmental control. The tessellated roof canopy comprises a series of shallow concrete domes, which extend to shade the facades. To enable seamless future expansion, each dome is a modular unit. The domes branch out from the supporting columns like the leaves of a desert palm and daylight floods the concourse through split beams at the column junctions. Echoing the veins of a leaf, a geometric pattern based on traditional Islamic forms is applied to each exposed soffit. The terminal is glazed on all sides to open up long views to the aircraft on the apron and aid orientation. Two piers of departure gates run along either side of the central building, which contains the main processing areas and shops, lounges and restaurants. Between these volumes, open-air courtyards draw on vernacular Arabic architecture and contribute to the terminal’s environmental strategy: the plants and trees help to filter pollution and pre-condition the air before it is drawn into the air handling system. In celebration of the tradition for family groups to congregate at the airport, the forecourt has been enlarged to create a landscaped plaza with seating, shaded by trees, where people can gather to bid farewell or welcome returning travellers. | https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9756fd_5761d52f426e469689a03ac4a9fb8714~mv2.jpg/v1/fill/w_2000,h_1124,al_c,q_90/Queen%20Alia%20International%20Airport%20(3).jfif Please Wait Queen Alia International Airport (1).jfif Queen Alia International Airport (2).jfif Queen Alia International Airport (3).jfif 1/5 0 Product 3.5K Views 0 0 Pin Pin Private Public x Appreciators Appreciated Appreciate Please Log in Queen Alia International Airport Queen Alia International Airport, Amman, Jordan Architects: Foster + Partners Foster + Partners Architecture Office United Kingdom Area: Year: City: Client: 116,000 m2 2012 Amman Airport International Group Construction: Category: INFRASTRUCTURE Project Type: Airport Post Type: Building Country: Jordan Photographers: the architects Description: Queen Alia International Airport continues the practice’s explorations of the airport terminal as a building type and sets out a vision for an environmentally sensitive, regionally apt, airport architecture.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Le Refuge KE01 is a black timber cabin nestled in the dunes of Keremma in Brittany, France, designed by Gayet Roger Architects as a family vacation retreat. Built in 2019, the 850-square-foot cabin (79 square meters) is positioned on a raised platform supported by four-foot-tall metal stilts, which protects it from the area's risk of flooding and preserves the natural terrain. A wooden footbridge connects the entrance of the house to a small path that leads to the nearby beach. The cabin's design draws inspiration from traditional Scandinavian architecture, featuring a dark exterior that allows it to blend into the surrounding landscape of tall cypress trees. The cross-laminated timber (CLT) structure is insulated with blown-in cellulose wadding and clad with rough-sawn wood strips painted with black Falun-style paint, a durable Swedish pigment. At night, the house disappears into the darkness, with only the illuminated windows visible like hanging lanterns. Inside, the warm, spruce-clad living spaces are designed with function in mind, stripped of the superfluous. The architects used rough-sawn wood panels for the built-in benches, dining table, shelving, and counters. The open-plan space is punctuated by strategically placed windows that frame specific views of the landscape. The large fixed window in the corner seating nook offers pastoral scenery, while a western bay window can be opened to extend the main room onto the terrace, blurring the line between inside and outside.

Built in 2019, the 850-square-foot cabin (79 square meters) is positioned on a raised platform supported by four-foot-tall metal stilts, which protects it from the area's risk of flooding and preserves the natural terrain. A wooden footbridge connects the entrance of the house to a small path that leads to the nearby beach. The cabin's design draws inspiration from traditional Scandinavian architecture, featuring a dark exterior that allows it to blend into the surrounding landscape of tall cypress trees. The cross-laminated timber (CLT) structure is insulated with blown-in cellulose wadding and clad with rough-sawn wood strips painted with black Falun-style paint, a durable Swedish pigment. At night, the house disappears into the darkness, with only the illuminated windows visible like hanging lanterns. Inside, the warm, spruce-clad living spaces are designed with function in mind, stripped of the superfluous. The architects used rough-sawn wood panels for the built-in benches, dining table, shelving, and counters. The open-plan space is punctuated by strategically placed windows that frame specific views of the landscape. The large fixed window in the corner seating nook offers pastoral scenery, while a western bay window can be opened to extend the main room onto the terrace, blurring the line between inside and outside. Upstairs, the four sleeping areas are designed like small cabins. Each features small, eye-level windows that provide views of the landscape for those lying down and can accommodate two single beds, with a built-in bench on one side and a storage area on the other.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Perched at 1,125 meters (3,690 feet) above sea level in the mountainous Imingfjell region of Norway, "The Hooded Cabin" is a striking and robust weekend retreat designed by the Oslo-based architectural firm Arkitektværelset. Commissioned to create an efficient and resilient cabin, the firm responded to the site's challenging conditions and strict local building regulations by creating a design that is both practical and iconic. The central design challenge came from the high altitude, harsh weather, and strict local regulations, which dictate specific requirements for materials, roof pitch (22–27 degrees), and window sections. Rather than viewing these limitations as obstacles, head architect Grethe Løland used them as a source of creative inspiration, stating, "Limitations are the mother of all playful creativity". The cabin's defining characteristic is its large, protective hood-like roof, which shelters the entrance and the main facade from the elements. The roof is clad in ore pine paneling, which stands in geometric contrast to the main black-painted timber body of the cabin. The exterior features a mix of black and natural pine, creating a strong visual identity that stands out in the otherwise traditional landscape. The clean, angular lines give the cabin a modern, sculptural feel, even while adhering to strict traditional building codes. Large, sectioned windows on the front facade frame magnificent views of the surrounding lake and mountains, connecting the interior with the rugged landscape. Despite its rugged exterior, the interior of the 66-square-meter cabin (plus a 7-square-meter attic) is cozy and efficiently designed to accommodate up to 12 people. A warm, neutral palette of wood is used throughout the floors and walls, accented by touches of black. This creates a serene and inviting atmosphere. The cabin includes an open kitchen and dining area, a master bedroom, a bathroom, and a sauna that ingeniously doubles as a guest sleeping area. An additional attic space offers further sleeping accommodation for guests. Large glass sliding doors and corner windows enhance the feeling of space and bring the stunning outdoor scenery into the living areas.

RESIDENTIAL | House | The Single-Family Home in Rodersdorf is a minimal, prefabricated timber-frame house located in the Swiss municipality of Rodersdorf. Designed by Berrel Berrel Kräutler Architekten, the 172-square-meter home was completed in 2016 and is perched on a southwestern slope with views over the Alsatian countryside. The architectural design is based on a contrast between a simple, unassuming exterior and a dynamic, sculptural interior. The cubature of the detached house adheres to local building code specifications, featuring a gabled roof that is reinterpreted in a contemporary way. The material palette is designed to weather naturally over time, with the roof and shorter facades clad in a copper-titanium-zinc alloy, and the long sides finished with rhythmic wooden slats. To maximize the use of the sloped plot, the interior is divided into four distinct split levels that flow into one another. This creates an open, loft-like experience despite the modest footprint of the house. A key feature of the interior is a suspended wooden shell that contains the two upper floors and houses the bedroom, study, and bathroom. This creates a double-height central space below, which serves as the heart of the home. Throughout the interior, precise carpentry work creates seamless connections between spaces. Storage units and minimalist stairs are integrated flush into walls and surfaces, creating an abstract and uncluttered living environment. The prefabricated timber frame and other materials were chosen for their durability and how they would respond to the environment over time. The ground floor includes the entrance, kitchen, dining area, and living room, which are connected visually and spatially. The two upper levels in the suspended wooden shell contain the private quarters, and the lower cellar and storage rooms are tucked into the slope. Narrow skylight slits in the roof and along the integrated shell, combined with a large window in the double-height space, flood the interior with natural light.

RESIDENTIAL | Retreat | The Sawmill Treehouse is an elevated, steel-clad cabin designed by Australian architect Robbie Walker in the rural Victorian High Country. It was created as a compact residential retreat for a client who valued a deep connection with nature and sought a sustainable escape to share with family and friends. Located in Sawmill Settlement, a leafy, alpine environment at the base of Mount Buller, the cabin is perched above a gully where street water discharges during large storms. The design is a clever response to the challenging site. The structure is elevated on four slim, steel columns that mimic the surrounding tree trunks, allowing water and wildlife to pass freely underneath. The single-story, rectangular cabin is wrapped in a skin of dark, weathered steel slats chosen for their durability in a bushfire-prone area (BAL 40 zone). These slats function as a rainscreen, providing shade and allowing air to circulate, which helps passively cool the building in the hot Australian summer, eliminating the need for air conditioning. Inside, the palette is intentionally pared-back and warm, with floors, walls, and ceilings lined entirely in Victorian ash wood. The compact layout includes a bedroom, a bathroom, and an open-plan kitchen and living area. The living space features a full-span glass wall that frames spectacular views of the gully and the surrounding tall trees. The design also incorporates bespoke, built-in furniture designed by Robbie Walker himself. A separate, smaller structure built on a flatter section of the site includes a garage, laundry, and a hidden outdoor kitchen. The project's most significant environmental achievement is its restraint. Despite having ample space, the client chose to build a small, one-bedroom retreat to minimize its impact on the special site.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Located in Grydalen, in Norway's Sirdal municipality, Hytte Grydalen is a 75-square-meter off-grid cabin designed by Trodahl Arkitekter. The elongated cabin, completed in 2018, is situated in a protected area without electricity or drainage, and its angular, ship-like form stands in stark contrast to the rounded landscape of the surrounding mountains. The cabin's design prioritizes a connection to nature and a focus on an unplugged, off-the-grid lifestyle. Its off-grid power is supplied by solar panels, providing lighting for the interior. The house is elongated, with a steep-pitched roofline that allows for a full ceiling height and a spacious, open feel within the main living area. The interior is dominated by wood, creating a warm, cozy atmosphere, and features a sleeping loft with an uninterrupted view of the surrounding landscape.

The elongated cabin, completed in 2018, is situated in a protected area without electricity or drainage, and its angular, ship-like form stands in stark contrast to the rounded landscape of the surrounding mountains. The cabin's design prioritizes a connection to nature and a focus on an unplugged, off-the-grid lifestyle. Its off-grid power is supplied by solar panels, providing lighting for the interior. The house is elongated, with a steep-pitched roofline that allows for a full ceiling height and a spacious, open feel within the main living area. The interior is dominated by wood, creating a warm, cozy atmosphere, and features a sleeping loft with an uninterrupted view of the surrounding landscape. Large windows, including glass walls in the living area, bring in natural light and blur the line between indoors and outdoors. The cabin also features an open fireplace for added warmth and ambiance.

RESIDENTIAL | House | Completed in 2022, Cottage JARO by Edit! architects is an 80-square-meter family house in Štěchovice, Czech Republic, that reimagines the traditional cottage aesthetic of the region with a contemporary approach. Situated on a steep, sloping site at the edge of a forest, the house's vertical form is designed to blend harmoniously with the natural landscape, minimizing the visual impact of human intervention. The design was developed in an intense dialogue with the art-loving owners, with meticulous attention paid to every detail. The three-story house features a distinctive, sculptural staircase that connects all the residential floors and acts as the central focal point of the interior. The lowest floor is occupied by a living room that connects directly with the garden. A vertical gallery connects the living room with the kitchen and dining area on the middle floor, creating a sense of openness and flow. The top floor features the main bedroom and facilities, offering expansive views of the valley and the Vltava River. The interior has a minimalist aesthetic, featuring white surfaces to serve as a backdrop for the owners' contemporary art collection. The exterior is clad in a wooden material that is intended to age and transform over time, much like the surrounding nature. The house's vertical form is a sensitive response to its sloped location, allowing it to integrate into the terrain rather than dominate it. The garden is also designed using simple, non-invasive principles and is divided into several functional zones for various outdoor activities. Special attention was paid to artisanal details, such as custom joinery and unique bathroom faucets, which are complemented by industrial-style windows reminiscent of old factories.

HOSPITALITY | Studio | The Atelier Nyp is a sustainable artist's studio and guesthouse designed by Studio Bua on the site of a former sheep shed in remote western Iceland. Completed in 2023, the cabin was built on the repurposed concrete foundation of the original structure, which had been destroyed by extreme weather. This approach minimized the project's environmental impact and maximized existing resources, both material and cultural. Located in Skarðsströnd, the cabin is part of a broader development by Studio Bua of former farm buildings into a home, cultural spaces, and additional guesthouses. The project is named after the Nypurhyrna mountain that rises up from behind it. The cabin features a deliberately simple, jet-black corrugated steel exterior that references the local vernacular and protects against the harsh Icelandic weather. Its off-center pitched roof echoes the distinctive shape of one of the area's dominant mountain peaks. The interior features exposed cross-laminated timber (CLT) walls, which create a warm and cozy atmosphere. The space is divided into two independent units: a workspace with living quarters for the artist and her husband, and a self-contained mini-apartment for guests. Salvaged materials were incorporated throughout the project, including a staircase from a historic Reykjavík building and kitchen units from a 1950s apartment.

RESIDENTIAL | Studio | Located in the Berhampore suburb of Wellington, New Zealand, the Herald Garden Studio is a 183-square-foot timber-framed structure designed by Parsonson Architects to provide additional, flexible living space for a family in a compact Victorian cottage. Sited at the southern end of the property, the studio was conceived as a multi-purpose retreat, capable of functioning as a children's playroom, a quiet study, or extra guest accommodation as the family's young sons grow. The design is sensitive to its surroundings, with the studio sitting lightly on timber piles to minimize its impact and allow the deck to wrap around an existing olive tree. A sheltered, triangulated pergola and deck connect the new studio to the main house both physically and visually, stitching the two structures together while reinforcing the connection to the lush garden. The studio faces north to maximize natural light throughout the day, while the pergola helps to screen the interior from high summer sun. Inside, the material palette is raw, simple, and eco-conscious. The structure and internal linings are made entirely of wood, including zero-formaldehyde Strandboard finished with natural WOCA oil. This choice of materials lends a minimalist interior and aligns with the project's sustainable principles. The compact floor plan includes a main living area, a tucked-away bathroom and storage space at the rear, and a mezzanine level for sleeping, playing, or storage. The Herald Garden Studio demonstrates how clever design on a tiny scale can support sustainable urban infill, allowing a family to stay in their beloved neighborhood rather than moving to the suburbs for more space.

RECREATIONAL | House | The Poolhouse in Vilnius, designed by HEIMA architects and completed in 2022, is a 150-square-meter building that serves as a recreational space in a recreational complex. Located in a hilly valley near an existing basin, the triangular building's position was chosen to optimize the views of the surrounding natural landscape. The architectural design is notable for its heavy, archetypal, and steeply pitched roof, which creates a strong visual contrast with the extensive glazing that encircles the building. This transparency makes the roof appear to hover in the air, blurring the distinction between the interior and exterior and allowing the building and its surroundings to be enjoyed throughout the year. The design also subtly references ethnic Lithuanian house-building traditions through its wooden roof structure, with its repetitive trusses and 120-centimeter-high beams. A central skylight is integrated into the roof to provide additional natural light. Inside, the interior is modern and follows the same grey-brown color and material palette as the exterior, reinforcing the connection to nature. The space is organized around three central elements: a fireplace, a kitchen island, and a core volume that contains the utility rooms. This arrangement keeps the perimeter free, emphasizing the open floor plan and the unimpeded views offered by the wide-opening windows. Outside, the project includes an outdoor swimming pool, a small sand beach, and a BBQ area. The entire structure is designed to function as a seamless part of its natural setting.

RESIDENTIAL | Modular House | The Ecohouse Module S22, designed by Ilya Shevchenko for the architectural bureau Strawmodul, is a prefabricated and modular tiny house series focused on eco-friendly, sustainable living. The project was developed as a "growing" home, allowing for phased construction and future expansion from the initial 22-square-meter module to a larger residence of up to 100 square meters. The initial prototype, completed in 2019, is situated on the rocky coast of Crimea. The core of the Ecohouse S22's sustainability is its unique construction method, which uses prefabricated straw panels. These panels are made from compressed straw bales set within a strong wooden frame. This method allows the house kit to be delivered in pieces and erected quickly, typically within two to three days. The use of straw as insulation provides excellent thermal properties, exceeding the heat-insulating performance of traditional wood or brick walls and aligning with European passive house standards for minimal heat loss. As straw is a renewable natural resource, this construction method is eco-friendly, utilizes what would otherwise be considered agricultural waste, and generates minimal construction waste. The design of the Crimea prototype features a strong, cantilevered terrace that projects from the dense vegetation, offering elevated views of the coast and surrounding mountains. To protect against prying eyes, the main facade with its wide window is hidden from passersby. Inside, the two-story module is compactly arranged, with a hallway and bathroom on the first floor and a quieter bedroom area on the second. The house is also equipped with solar panels, designed to provide a significant portion of its energy needs.

HOSPITALITY | Cabin | Built and designed by UK-based Koto Design and Koto Living, the Ash Cabin is one of three bespoke cabins that make up the "Trees at Tughall" boutique hotel, located on the Northumberland coast of England and completed around 2022. Situated in a secluded wood on Tughall Grange Farm, the cabin retreat draws inspiration from the region's traditional beach shacks and fishermen's sheds. The cabins, including Ash, Hawthorn, and Willow, were designed with a minimalist, Scandinavian-Japanese aesthetic, often referred to as "Japandi". The 300-square-foot cabins were constructed using sustainable and carbon-neutral prefabricated modular methods. The exterior of each cabin is clad in black-stained Welsh spruce, which allows the structures to blend seamlessly into the woodland surroundings. Inside, the angular, light-filled spaces are finished with poplar plywood on the walls and ceilings, while the floors are made of locally sourced solid ash. Large windows and double doors provide expansive views of the wild meadow and surrounding nature, fostering a sense of connection with the outdoors. The interiors also feature minimalist details like a king-size bed, a wood-burning stove, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. Covered porches extend the living space into the natural environment, providing a sheltered area for experiencing the landscape. The Ash Cabin itself is nestled among ancient ash trees, which create a dappled light effect on the building's exterior. The design of each cabin prioritizes a distraction-free experience, inviting guests to engage with the natural environment rather than with modern technology. This focus on emotional minimalism and low-impact building is a hallmark of Koto's design philosophy.
