THE WOODEN CABIN

The structural framework of the House comprises prefabricated, laminated and glued timber panels. From the outside it is a little bit rough and unplaned but from the inside it is smooth, soft and warm. There was no question about using this as a construction material for the House by the edge of the Woods.

The climatic and aromatic conditions inside the house far exceed all our expectations (fresh wood smells just heavenly). This is a living, breathing structure in every sense of the word and it was occupied and populated by the Family in no time at all. At winter they heat it with a stove and a fireplace using wood coming from the nearby Woods, in the summer they air it with the cool evening air descending from the Woods, and in the morning they wake up to lovely birdsong.
