Architects Mind Blowing Cabin Floats 60 Feet Above the Ground OFF GRID CABIN TOUR
This is a super remote and very dramatic offgrid cabin that hovers 60 feet above the ground thanks to a clever design that uses crosslaminated timber (CLT) and a steel mast in a unique way The cabin is 100 feet long with the last 25 feet being cantilevered, and the southfacing side is entirely composed of windows to optimize solar gain in the winter. The CLT cabin was designed by Paul Kariouk of Kariouk Architects, and it s also his home away from home that he shares with his partner Antonio. They spend as much time as they can here, even when it means snowshoeing or crosscountry skiing in on the unplowed 5kmlong driveway carrying everything on their backs It is completely off the grid, and it has a well for fresh water, solar panels for electricity, wood for heat, and propane for cooking.
