dear designboom reader,
usually found in rural or semi-rural locations, cabins are designed to exist in harmony with their natural surroundings. in inari, finland, pirinen & salo's ‘lucia smart' provides panoramic views of the landscape and sky thanks to its all-glass exterior. meanwhile, this tiny cabin on wheels by REDUKT features large glass doors on either side to immerse inhabitants in nature and bring sunlight inside.
beyond residential use, cabins also provide a getaway for those that seek to work remotely, such as hyundai's latest proposal, which combines its electric IONIQ 5 car with a compact cabin designed by studio puisto. similarly, the ‘arrachay' workspace cabin, located in a remote site in the andes mountains, challenges the traditional way of working.
thanks for reading!
