With a deep understanding of the roots of architecture, this cabin is designed to create a sense of belonging—to nature, to tradition, and to each other. For as Juhani Pallasmaa describes; our roots provide us with security and identity, which is essential for feeling at home. Philosopher Simone Weil also emphasizes the importance of roots in human existence, and how our connections to places and traditions give us a deeper understanding of ourselves.

The interior combines traditional aesthetic elements with clean lines, prioritizing an environment that promotes rest and well-being. The choice of materials reflects a quest for simplicity, with a connection to the mountainous landscape. There is a harmonious balance between authentic materials such as wood, stone, and patinated metal, where visual and tactile contrasts bring the space to life.

The cabin stands in the heart of a natural landscape characterized by contrasting tones. The dark shades of local stone, the gray-brown tree trunks, the softness of the moss, and the snow-covered landscape have inspired the color palette, contributing to an atmosphere that reflects the beauty of nature. This un-Norwegian nature—which changes with the seasons—is something I have sought to mirror indoors, to create a connection between the outside and the inside.

The cabin is more than just a refuge; it is a space for recreation, balance, and timelessness—where every detail is crafted to create a cozy atmosphere, in harmony with nature.
