Set within a dense pine forest, this cabin is conceived as a dark timber volume that shelters a warm interior core from snow and wind. The exterior is defined by a crisp wedge roof and deep window cuts that frame the trees and winter light while keeping the building compact and quiet in the landscape.
Inside, the palette shifts to warm wood surfaces and stone, anchored by a tall living room with expansive glazing and a central hearth. Daylight is treated as a material, moving across the timber ceiling and drawing the forest deep into the plan. A dedicated sauna and a sequence of smaller rooms provide a counterpoint to the larger gathering spaces, creating a balance of retreat and openness.
The house sits lightly among granite boulders and snow drifts, with outdoor thresholds calibrated for winter use and protected entries. The result is a cabin that feels durable and minimal from the outside, and warm, atmospheric, and highly livable from within.
