Cabin holidays are a part of the Norwegian national soul. As soon as the weekend or school holiday hits, people flock to the forests and mountains, or to the sea, to spend their free time lodging in a small house near a lake or with a panoramic view. Do as the locals and rent a cottage, cabin, or lodge on your holiday in Norway.
Cabins and cottages in Norway vary from the totally basic (no electricity, and water from a well) to the very luxurious. What they all offer, however, is the opportunity to experience the traditional Norwegian “hyttekos” (cabin cosiness), a feeling very unlike the one you get in an apartment or a hotel. At the cabin, you take the day as it comes.
First, I picked up a few references for the atmosphere and environment.
Jotunheim has several great expressions with a floor plan that gives large volume on a small surface. Here, a lot of light is let into the living room, and good covered outdoor areas have been created that provide the opportunity for nice moments out in the fresh air. The cabin can be delivered with its own outdoor bathing area, which fits just as well by the sea or by a mountain lake.
4 cabins - 1 floor plan.
Then I prepared the first draft. To begin with, I decided to try to fit the cabin into a forest environment.
And after this we decided to try to change the environment and the angle. Here's what came of it.
