design proposal from 2023

Nestled on wooded land, this project aims to create a charming and comfortable home harmoniously integrated into the lush forest surroundings. The cottage’s exterior is clad in natural wood siding, blending seamlessly with the environment. Its steeply pitched roof efficiently sheds rain and snow while adding a rustic touch to the design.
To accommodate the client’s wish to occasionally rent out part of the property while retaining a private space, the design features two separate small units connected by a shared spa area with a hot tub and sauna.
With a compact footprint, the cottage is an ideal retreat for a single occupant or couple. Upstairs, the open-plan space is efficiently utilized, with interior walls finished in light wood paneling that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere.
The main living area serves as the heart of the cottage, seamlessly integrating kitchen, dining, and living spaces. Large windows and a glass door flood the interior with natural light and offer inspiring views of the forest. The kitchen features modern appliances, a farmhouse sink, and a butcher block countertop. The dining area includes a cozy table and chairs, while the living space is furnished with a comfortable sofa and armchairs arranged around a wood-burning stove.
Compact yet functional, the bathrooms are equipped with showers, sinks, and toilets. Their walls are tiled in soothing natural tones, enhancing the cottage’s bucolic charm. Each unit includes a small veranda, perfect for enjoying morning coffee or an afternoon read.
Overall, this project offers a welcoming and peaceful retreat, providing an idyllic lifestyle immersed in nature.
