Olson Kundig Cabins

I'm fairly certain that these have made more than a few rounds out there in blogland but they're new to me. When a friend sent them over last week, my jaw dropped. Then I sent them to C and his jaw dropped. And then he started planning.While that little studio that I keep talking about is still a long while away from becoming a reality, the scheming and collecting is in full force. We've now collected all of the windows we'll need and we're moving on to scouring for doors. Sketches are being thrown around and when I say, "Wallspace! I need wallspace!", C's brain goes into overload and figures out how to give me more wallspace.Our studio will obviously be simpler and more amateur rustic than these beauties but one of the best parts of planning is gathering the inspiration.***all images from Olson Kundig Architects***

WOW. The clean lines and minimal minimalism are stunning; what lovely the simplicity. I wish I could live without all the books/shoes/clutter.
And check out the toilet practically in the middle of the room!

my heart skipped a beat! these are soooo beautiful! they aren't my fave style, but what you did with them is incredible. you are seriously talented, and never undervalue yourself just to make sales- know your worth in this world! the right customers always do come along, given time. and don't you want your pieces to go to the right people who will LOVE them and appreciate them like you do? of course ya do.

Beautifully done! Thanks for sharing how you did it. So lovely I'm sure your guest will love it. My personal favorite is the addition of the ornaments. Thanks for posting.

Hi Ria and Julie,

Thanks for your comments!

The only info I have about these cabins is from the architect's website (see links above). If you're looking for more details I would contact the firm directly.

ps- can I ask how you came to this post? Thanks!
