019 Cabin
The task was to create a transportable cabin that would be constructed in a workshop and brought to the site. This building had to be reproductive and be able to adapt to different contexts. The search for a solution led us to the design of a modular system. The system defines a structure as a set of individual elements consisting of columns, floors, walls, roofs, etc. In such a way the building can be transported in assembled or individual elements depending on the situation. The modular system allows the construction of different sizes and configurations of the building. At the base design stage, it is unknown where the building will appear.

The only known context is climate elements such as sun, wind, and water. As a result, the roof of the cabin looks like floating in the wind. It also protects the structure from the heat of the sun and has a shape that collects rainwater, pours it from one plane to another, and exhibits water flow. The building adapts to natural terrain by standing on slender legs of variable heights. Photography by © Vaidotas Darulis
The metal used in the construction and facade is non-colored, leaving a unique pattern created during its manufacturing process. This way, all modular cabins have slightly different facade graphics. Inside the metal shell lies a warm natural plywood finish. The first cabin made its way to the lake island ?Apple Island? in Lithuania with exceptional natural surrounding...
