Cabin in British Columbia

Not that I want to live or even sleep in my place (well perhaps the occasional snooze) but I think that this weekend cabin on Gambier Island, British Columbia, Canada is a smasher

Small, functional and well designed – three attributes I want for my place of my own…

I love the simple, uncensored and unapologetic exposed materials and structure and the functional effective use of every inch of space. I also really like the front elevation with the raised deck – I’ve realised that I have a bit of a thing for raised platforms and ladders – perhaps I should build a tree house.

Not so keen on those tatty, drafty looking windows (too many cold, damp Welsh winters to be attracted to anything that’s not virtually air tight and at least double glazed) and the bathroom facilities seem a little sparse…

If you liked that post, then try these...
