A cabin design is always pictured as a small house made out of logs, but not in Olso, Norway. This summer cabin is not only coveted for its awesome structure and design but also for its location.
Norway's Cozy Summer Cabin that can only be accessed by boat has been featured in Curbed. Report states that "this serene-looking summer house on stilts on a Norwegian island is eminently covetable."
This summer cabin in Norway is designed by Lund Hagem Arkitekter, an architectural firm based in Oslo. The property has an area of 807 square feet or 75 square meters. It is called Cabin Lille Arøya, a summer house of the clients who are "an interior architect, an artist, and their two kids."
Cabin Lille Arøya is made from laminated wood and steel. It is considered as one long low volume. The interior's description reads "simple, rustic spaces with wood floors and broad glass windows create the kind of cozy, streamlined interiors we've come to expect from Scandinavian designers."
This Summer Cabin in Norway has also been featured in Dezeen. Report states that Cabin Lille Arøya is "located just five metres from the water on the small island off the coast of Helgeroa village, the uneven rocky site is exposed to strong winds but benefits from unobstructed sea views."
The property is built on the highest point of the ridge of the island. According to the architects who built the cabin, it is the "only naturally horizontal surface" in the area.
The summer cabin has a terrace, bedrooms, and bathrooms. Its "living areas are set within a glazed block towards the water's edge."
Arch Daily reports that this property has limited access, and only by boat. It is also noted that the location of the property has several small islands that are only a boat ride away. "The islands are all relatively small with large height differences and exposed rock surfaces."
