The 280-square-foot structure was built on a modest budget of approximately $14,000, with the designers doing most of the work themselves. The off-grid cabin was designed as a simple and functional retreat to live in and reflect on self-reliance. Built on a rocky plot with a natural flat spot near a lake, the cabin’s design features four slightly offset rooms spread across a total floor space of 26.8 square meters, offering a different view of the surrounding landscape from each staggered window. The cabin's off-grid utilities include a water pump, a three-phase sewage system, and a hot water supply powered by solar energy and a wood-burning stove. To accommodate the cabin's location on swampy soil with no vehicular access, the designers first built a 650-foot-long elevated pathway to the nearest road. The foundation was built using concrete-filled steel pipes anchored into bedrock to ensure durability. The minimalist interior features wood-paneled walls and flooring, with plywood boards lining the ceilings. A wood-burning stove provides heat, while large windows allow natural light to flood the space and connect the occupants with nature. A small deck outside provides an open-air area for a tranquil retreat.

RESIDENTIAL | House | Situated in the tranquil, remote countryside near the Baltic Sea coast in Wangelkow, Germany, the Dr. Funk Holiday House is a 38-square-meter cottage that was completely renovated in 2022 by Kessler Plescher Architekten. The small, thatched-roof house was originally built in 1958 and is nestled on the shore of a small lake, with access via narrow, sandy paths. The renovation was commissioned by the owner, whose grandfather originally built the house, with the goal of reconfiguring the space to accommodate a variable number of family members and guests. The architects preserved only the original wooden support structure and the thatched roof, revitalizing the interior to create an open and modern living space. The floor plan was reimagined, with the main living space in the center and a spatial layer of "serving functions"—including the kitchen, storage, and bathroom—organized along the outer walls. In the kitchen, a bench was installed along the window to frame views of the lake. The interior palette is playful yet minimalist, featuring reddish-brown and pink checkerboard tiles that distort the perception of the small space. In contrast, light green paint was used on the walls and ceiling of the common area to create a sense of expansiveness, while a dark green in the bedroom blurs the contours of the room. An insertion staircase leads to the upper floor, which provides additional sleeping accommodations. The architects also designed custom freestanding furniture in a vibrant neon yellow to provide a bold contrast to the pinewood fittings. The renovation successfully turned the small cottage into a functional and modern retreat, with an annual festival held at the lake to celebrate its revival.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Designed by Austrian architect Christian Tonko and completed in 2022, Cabin MM01 is a modular and minimalist vacation home in the rural, alpine landscape of Carinthia, Austria. The 25-square-meter cabin, which is complemented by an equal-sized terrace, was created as a base for a couple to enjoy outdoor activities. The project is a testament to sustainable and flexible design, with a structure that is both easily transportable and leaves no lasting trace on its site. The cabin is a study in efficient and elegant micro-architecture, based on the standard dimensions and frames of shipping containers. Its name, "MM01," is a tribute to Malcolm McLean, the inventor of the modern shipping container. This design approach allows the cabin to be transported easily by a standard truck and installed on-site using removable screw foundations. When the cabin is relocated, the site can be fully restored to its original state. The compact 25-square-meter internal space is efficiently divided into four equally sized zones: a bedroom, a living/workspace, a kitchen, and a bathroom. An equally sized, covered terrace extends the living area outdoors, providing a shaded space to enjoy the surrounding forest. The terrace is oriented to the north for optimal shading and privacy. Expansive glazing lines the front of the cabin, connecting the interior with the outdoors and making the space feel larger than its physical footprint. The MM01 cabin combines high-quality, durable materials with clever space-saving techniques. While inspired by shipping containers, the cabin is built from specially constructed metal frames and highly insulated panels for superior thermal performance compared to typical metal containers. Despite its small size, the cabin features modern conveniences, including a full kitchen with a dishwasher and a washing machine. A desk with a foldaway screen can be pulled out from under the bed, transforming the area into an office when needed. Project credits Architect: Christian Tonko.

RESIDENTIAL | Summer house | The Summer House, a project by General Architecture, is a reimagined retreat built on the foundation of a salvaged granary in Nannberga, Sweden. Completed in 2011, the architects found an old, small barn for sale outside the town of Borlänge, in the province of Dalarna, and were drawn to its straightforward, logical structure. The derelict building was carefully dismantled and moved to a more advantageous location on an old pasture near the shores of Lake Hjälmaren, a few kilometers from Arboga. This process of deconstruction and relocation formed a central theme of the project, sparking an internal discussion within the firm about construction, architecture, and the underlying tectonic elements of building traditions. The design sought to build upon the rustic character of the original structure while adding contemporary elements. After being reassembled, the granary's timber frame was placed on a new concrete plinth foundation. A load-bearing wooden framework was then added between the 15th and 16th timber rows, allowing for a full-height upper floor. The exterior of the new additions was treated with the same red paint as the original elements, ensuring a cohesive look. Following the construction, the house was left to settle for a year before the interior finishes were added. The interior of the house was kept simple and spare, with materials chosen for their availability and price. Oak wood, harvested from the site, and plywood from a local building supplier were used for the internal finishes. The internal walls of the upper floor were designed as floor-height trusses, a structural decision that eliminated the need for supports on the ground floor, creating a completely open-plan space. The ground floor features an open kitchen and living area, while the upper floor contains two bedrooms. Windows are carefully integrated, with large openings in the original timber walls and narrow, vertical windows on the upper floor, matching the new structural framework. The layout and material choices emphasize a connection to Swedish architectural tradition and the straightforwardness of the original barn structure.

RESIDENTIAL | House | The Simple House is a modern, prefabricated timber-frame home located in the scenic, rural landscape of Radovljica, Slovenia, and designed by the architectural firm Scapelab. Completed in 2006, the project offers a contemporary take on the traditional, archetypal Slovenian farmhouse. The house was designed to be cost-effective, energy-efficient, and low-maintenance, with a construction process that allowed for rapid on-site assembly The design is centered on a basic pitched-roof volume, but its cladding offers a unique, modern interpretation. The facade features a veil of horizontally oriented timber louvers on the north and south sides, which contrast with vertically oriented zinc panels that cover the roof and parts of the east and west elevations. While the house appears to lack traditional windows from a distance, the louvers and gaps in the timber cladding allow natural light and ventilation to filter into the interior while maintaining a sense of privacy. The design is interactive, allowing occupants to adapt the house to the weather and their mood. The interior and exterior spaces are functionally distributed in a "corridorless" design, with an open floor plan that flows naturally from one space to another. The building opens up onto terraces on both the northern and southern facades, allowing residents to pursue outdoor living depending on the weather; the southern terrace offers warmth on colder days, while the northern terrace provides shade during the summer. Sustainability is a key feature of the Simple House. The highly insulated envelope, combined with solar panels on the roof and a central heating plant, ensures low running costs and a reduced environmental footprint. The use of durable, low-maintenance materials like zinc and wood further contributes to the home's longevity and minimal upkeep needs.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Hemp House by earthtopeoplestudio is an eco-conscious rehabilitation of an abandoned 1930s cabin in the Schoharie Valley, New York, led by Brittany and Jordan Weller, who subsequently founded the design studio Earth to People. The couple originally intended to build a new straw-bale house but instead chose a mindful, preservation-focused approach to revive the existing, dilapidated structure. The renovation was performed on a modest budget, prioritizing the use of locally sourced materials and salvaged items from the property itself, including fieldstone. The design philosophy focused on respecting the past to build a better, more sustainable future, challenging conventional, modern building standards. Materials were selected based on their regional availability and sustainable qualities. For instance, Eastern White Pine and Eastern Cedar were used for their proximity, reducing transport-related environmental impact. Charring the exterior timber using a slow, meditative, on-site process—rather than automated, high-heat methods—protected the wood naturally against decay, insects, and weather, while providing fire resistance. A final coat of natural tung oil was applied with assistance from the owners' children. The home's most significant sustainable upgrade, and the source of its name, is the addition of zero-carbon, plant-based hemp insulation. The insulation was applied in the form of hempcrete, a breathable material made from the woody core of the hemp plant mixed with a lime binder. This natural mixture regulates interior temperature and humidity by absorbing and releasing moisture, reducing the risk of mold and eliminating the need for plastic or vapor barriers. Inside, the cabin features a warm and inviting atmosphere, in contrast to its weathered exterior.

Completed in 2010, the project was designed by the firm's partners, Anu Puustinen and Ville Hara, as their own holiday residence. Concept and location The 78 m² cabin is a minimalist retreat that provides a profound contrast to hectic city life, offering a chance to live simply with minimal environmental impact. The villa's cross-shaped plan is a deliberate design choice, with each of its four wings reaching out toward a distinct view of the surrounding landscape. This intentional layout ensures that the residents can enjoy three unique views of the lake and a forest view to the west. The orientation also allows for different light at various times of the day—morning light in the kitchen, midday sun in the dining area, and evening light in the living room. The exterior is clad in a black-stained wood that helps the building to recede and blend into the dark forest, while the flat roof is a nod to modernist architectural clichés. The interior, by contrast, is kept bright with light-colored wood on the floors and walls, and it is finished with a white wood wax. The simple, functional furnishings enhance the home's rustic charm. The main villa and a separate, 24 m² sauna building were built with a modest budget, aided by the ascetic, off-grid nature of the facilities. The Four-Cornered Villa is a model of low-impact, sustainable living. The structure is heavily insulated and heated solely by wood-burning fireplaces and stoves, sourcing wood from the island's own forest. Covered terraces prevent overheating during the hot Finnish summers while allowing passive solar gain in the winter. The cabin's minimal electricity needs are met by solar panels. The villa has no running water, with water sourced directly from the nearby Vaskivesi Lake. A vegetable and herb garden on-site provides food, and the lake offers fishing for pike-perch.

Completed in 2020, the 90-square-meter cabin was thoughtfully designed to minimize its impact on the natural environment and to foster a deep connection with the surrounding wild forest and water. The structure of Villa Rauhanniemi, a wood and glass building, is elevated on a platform that both provides stability and serves as a wraparound balcony, allowing the family to live as much outdoors as possible. To construct the home with minimal disruption to the forest, large machinery was not permitted on-site, and materials had to be carried in by hand. The trees removed during construction were repurposed to create the outdoor benches. Large panoramic windows were incorporated to blur the line between interior and exterior, framing spectacular views of the lake and ensuring that each room feels spacious despite the home's compact size. Reflecting Laajisto's Scandinavian design philosophy of not cluttering the world with unnecessary things, the interior is crafted from a warm, natural material palette that includes Douglas fir, light pine, and oak. Wide oak floorboards provide a sense of refined rusticity, while grey marble countertops and a fireplace in the living area add warmth and sophistication. The kitchen was intentionally kept simple and stripped back to maintain the character of a cabin rather than a residential home. In a nod to a classic Finnish feature, the house includes a sauna, which, along with the bathroom, is adorned with deep red tiles in a herringbone pattern. Villa Rauhanniemi was also conceived with sustainability in mind. Laajisto and her family own the adjacent plot of land, which they maintain as a wild forest and a carbon sink to balance the home's footprint.

Surrounded by pine forests, the residence is a contemporary interpretation of coastal living, respecting both the landscape and the area's architectural heritage. The house features a bi-level structure, with its lower level partially submerged into the bedrock, a technique that minimizes the visual impact of the building and anchors it firmly to the cliffside. The main living floor sits perched on the cliff top, offering expansive and direct views of the Baltic Sea. This elevated position allows the house to feel protected yet completely connected to the dramatic coastal environment. The exterior is clad in spruce and painted with traditional linseed-oil paint, a nod to the 19th-century buildings characteristic of the region. This choice of material and finish helps the villa blend into its surroundings and weathers gracefully over time. Inside, the design creates a strong visual link between the interior and the rugged, natural surroundings. Large glass walls frame the dramatic landscape, bringing the sea and forest views directly into the living spaces. The interior palette is a mix of white and wood, complemented by unique details that reference the natural world. For instance, leaf-green floor tiles at the entrance mirror the surrounding pine forests, while rocks from the site itself are incorporated into both the interior and exterior. The living, dining, and kitchen areas feature retro-style furniture, adding a touch of character and warmth to the contemporary shell. A flat roof over the submerged lower level is topped with a wooden deck and balustrades, creating a large, sheltered terrace accessible from the main living area. Above the upper floor, a gabled, zinc-covered roof provides robust protection against the area's often harsh wind and sea spray.

This vacation residence thoughtfully balances communal living with the need for individual privacy by dividing the program into two distinct units. The structures are arranged in a ""down-to-earth"" fan shape that preserves the surrounding pine trees and visible rocks, with the buildings' large windows oriented to maximize views toward the sea. The design is a contemporary expression of the traditional Finnish cabin, composed of four interconnected sections of varying heights. The units are joined by a central, sheltered terrace that serves as a shared outdoor living space. A narrow, inviting entrance is nestled between the two primary volumes, offering a first glimpse of the landscape beyond. The layout was specifically crafted to ensure that each unit enjoys equally impressive views, while interior sightlines between the two are intentionally limited, creating a sense of shared presence without sacrificing privacy. The holiday home was constructed using a prefabricated 180mm log frame, which was then clad in vertical spruce with a silicon treatment to achieve a weathered silver-grey finish that blends with the natural surroundings over time. The interior spaces celebrate this honest material palette, with visible roof beams and exposed wooden surfaces treated with lye to create a bright, serene atmosphere. Striking black fireplaces and dark built-in furniture provide a contemporary contrast to the light wood. Sustainability was a key consideration in the project. The building utilizes a prefab structure to minimize waste and features glue-laminated timber beams and recycled wood fiber insulation. Natural ventilation, air-source heat pumps, and underfloor heating contribute to the home's energy efficiency.

Sited on Lake Saimaa, near Savonlinna, the 15-square-meter cabin was designed with a Zen philosophy of ""nothingness,"" stripping the design to its bare minimum to create a space for spiritual and visual focus. At night, the illuminated cabin shines on the lake like a warm candle, a key part of its design concept. The cabin was designed to minimize its impact on the protected nature reserve, and the process of building it reflects this commitment. To avoid damaging the forest vegetation, a temporary road was built for a single day to assemble the prefabricated structure. The vegetation was then restored to its original state once the construction was finished. The structure is primarily composed of cross-laminated timber (CLT), which is exposed on the interior to create a warm, minimalist, and natural aesthetic. The exterior is clad in larch boards, allowing the cabin to blend harmoniously with its surroundings. The gabled ends of the cabin feature full-height glazing, maximizing the connection to nature and providing panoramic views of the water on both sides of the peninsula. The interior includes built-in furniture and a sleeping bunk accessed by a ladder, demonstrating an efficient use of the compact space.

Conceived as a high-quality ""hideout"" or experiential space, the cabin was created to offer occupants uninterrupted, panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, including the sky. The initial prototype was installed in Inari, Finland, near Juutuanvuono Lake, with an almost 360-degree vista of the riverside site. A core principle of the design is seamless integration with nature. This is achieved through its mirrored glass exterior, which reflects the environment and makes the cabin appear to blend in with the trees. The sleek black steel frame and floor ribbon also minimize the visual impact on the landscape. The interior is designed to draw attention outwards, with uniform colors and materials that do not distract from the external view. The triangular shape of the steel beam structure and the angle of the glass surfaces are precisely calculated to optimize sightlines, especially for someone lying in bed. High performance in challenging climates is a key feature of the Lucia Smart Cabin. The structure uses high-tech thermal glass, tested to withstand frigid temperatures, and includes an integrated heated floor system. Integrated lighting within the steel frame illuminates the interior without cluttering the glass and uses the surfaces to create a dynamic, multi-dimensional effect. For privacy or cooling, options such as curtains or customized prints can be added to the glass. The units are prefabricated and delivered to the site ready for installation on foundations with infrastructure connections. The compact but efficient interior accommodates a king-size bed, a small kitchenette, a dining area, and a bathroom. An exterior patio and a path to the water's edge extend the experience to the outdoors.

The project was commissioned by a family who found their existing 1960s fishing cabin too small for their needs and wanted a new building better suited for island living. The design draws inspiration from classic summer cabin aesthetics while incorporating modern functionality, with a central goal of connecting the occupants with the serene lake environment. The architectural response to the island's unique location and occasional strong winds is a practical and aesthetically refined structure. The summerhouse features a protective saddle roof with long eaves, which extends over covered outdoor spaces. These sheltered areas are protected from the wind by external walls that also serve to frame specific views of the lake. The house is intentionally positioned on the flattest and most scenic part of the island, maximizing both the open lake views and access to the evening sun. Construction was designed for efficiency and minimal environmental impact, using a non-insulated 200 mm thick cross-laminated timber (CLT) frame that could be easily transported and assembled on the island. Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining of the CLT frame allowed for simple yet elegant detailing. The floor and roof were built with wood fiber insulation and LVL and glulam beams. The spruce frame and interior claddings were mostly left untreated, contributing to a natural, rustic feel. Inside, the main space, which combines the kitchen and living room, is defined by the visible saddle roof and the vast, open view of the lake.

Perched on a granite ridge in a high-latitude pine forest, the cabin was built as a guest cabin and owner's retreat for an engineer who wanted to host his extended family and reconnect with the natural landscape. The design is a modern take on the traditional Finnish log cabin, blending traditional forms with contemporary details and focusing on natural light and open space. To minimize the impact on the site, which included a delicate landscape on a narrow ridge, the cabin's logs and window assemblies were prefabricated off-site and lifted into place by a crane. Built on post foundations, the cabin combines the traditional gable roof and log walls of Finnish cabins with unexpected details, volume, and quality of light. Locally sourced materials were used to complete the project on a limited budget. The exterior is protected from the elements by vertical pine screening treated with iron oxide, which accelerates the natural graying of the wood. The interior, in contrast, features untreated pine log walls and bare roof rafters, creating a warm and rustic aesthetic. The layout includes a double-height living room with oversized operable windows on the north and south sides that frame panoramic views of the forest and Lake Saimaa, blending the indoors with the outdoors. A whimsical, treehouse-like loft provides a cozy retreat, and two generous bedrooms bookend the living space.

The 280-square-foot structure was built on a modest budget of approximately $14,000, with the designers doing most of the work themselves. The off-grid cabin was designed as a simple and functional retreat to live in and reflect on self-reliance. Built on a rocky plot with a natural flat spot near a lake, the cabin’s design features four slightly offset rooms spread across a total floor space of 26.8 square meters, offering a different view of the surrounding landscape from each staggered window. The cabin's off-grid utilities include a water pump, a three-phase sewage system, and a hot water supply powered by solar energy and a wood-burning stove. To accommodate the cabin's location on swampy soil with no vehicular access, the designers first built a 650-foot-long elevated pathway to the nearest road. The foundation was built using concrete-filled steel pipes anchored into bedrock to ensure durability. The minimalist interior features wood-paneled walls and flooring, with plywood boards lining the ceilings. A wood-burning stove provides heat, while large windows allow natural light to flood the space and connect the occupants with nature. A small deck outside provides an open-air area for a tranquil retreat.

Completed in 2020, the cabin is part of a larger, ecologically sensitive tourism project that will eventually feature up to 50 unique dwelling units, as well as a sauna and conference center. The design is a modern interpretation of the traditional niliaitta, an elevated wooden hut historically used by the indigenous Sámi people to store food and other items away from bears and other wild animals. Niliaitta was conceived as a secluded, ""bear-cache"" for humans, providing a retreat from the chaos of modern life. The cabin is elevated on a single, slender concrete-filled steel column, which minimizes its footprint and allows the forest floor to remain undisturbed. The exterior is clad in black-toned pine, allowing the structure to blend with the surrounding trees, while the interior is lined with warm, light-toned wood. The 30-square-meter cabin features a minimalist and cozy interior, with all utility spaces—including a kitchenette, spacious shower, and building systems—cleverly contained within a central core. The central core design allows the living space to remain open and uncluttered, drawing attention to a full-height window that frames views of the surrounding nature. The interior also features wood surfaces and eco-wool insulation, with plastic avoided in the structure. A linear staircase provides access to the elevated cabin, creating a transition from the wild outdoors to a secure and tranquil retreat.

RESIDENTIAL | Cabin | Following a devastating wildfire, self-taught designer and builder Jeff Waldman, along with his partner Molly, was inspired to construct the 198-square-foot Saltbox Cabin as a more modest replacement for their previous home. The project, documented on his YouTube channel, is a modern and humble take on a basic alpine hut. The 12x16.5-foot cabin was built by Waldman and Molly using salvaged and site-milled redwood from trees killed in the fire, as well as some new materials. The cabin features a simple layout with an open kitchen, a small bedroom, and a bathroom. Its defining saltbox roof is low-slung and provides a high ceiling on the taller side, creating a cozy yet spacious feel inside. The design also incorporates unconventional, exposed framing and post-and-beam construction. A portion of the $17,400 material cost went toward salvaged old-growth redwood and modern French doors and sliding windows. The project's philosophy focuses on sustainability, community, and skill-building. The use of fire-killed and salvaged wood highlights a regenerative approach to building. Waldman has shared the knowledge gained from the build on his "Elevated Spaces" platforms, including a build guide and video, to encourage others to take on similar projects.

The project, documented on his YouTube channel, is a modern and humble take on a basic alpine hut. The 12x16.5-foot cabin was built by Waldman and Molly using salvaged and site-milled redwood from trees killed in the fire, as well as some new materials. The cabin features a simple layout with an open kitchen, a small bedroom, and a bathroom.

RESIDENTIAL | Tiny Home | "La Petite Maison" (meaning "The Little House") is a 35-square-meter wooden holiday home in the French countryside town of Guitinières, completed in 2020 by the Kyoto-based architecture and maker studio 2m26. Designed and built by the studio's founders, Mélanie Heresbach and Sébastien Renauld, the guesthouse accommodates up to two people and is situated on a sprawling property away from the main residence, surrounded by fields, woods, and an orchard. The project prioritizes a connection to the outdoors, with large windows, glass walls, and an open-air courtyard that blurs the line between the interior and the surrounding landscape. To minimize environmental impact, the minimalist house was constructed using locally sourced Douglas fir boards, a material that can be easily disassembled and recycled. It was assembled on-site with the help of the owners and sits on concrete pillars, which raises it slightly off the ground. The compact structure was designed to provide flexibility, with sliding glass doors and large shutters offering customizable protection from the wind or sun while allowing various views and natural light. The interior features a simple, open layout with four rooms partitioned by an additional set of movable doors and screens. The minimalist design is emphasized by furniture and countertops made from the same Douglas fir, which draws attention to the serene countryside views.
