wooden cabin

The wooden cabin typology is one of the most enduring and versatile styles in architecture. The epitome of human shelter and an archetypal house, timber cabins have an unmistakable charm. From cozy retreats in the mountains to weekend homes in a woodland or a pastoral area in the countryside, the wooden cabin conveys a distinctive sense of comfort and hospitality. On this page, you can discover a wide range of architectural designs. While vastly different, they all offer creative takes on the simple timber house. And when we say creative, we really mean it. Think asymmetrical buildings, floor-to-ceiling glazing, tree houses, black monoliths, and much more.
