Shelter

I recently designed a 100 square foot conceptual cabin for Deception Pass, near Seattle, WA. Its design responds to the arts and crafts traditions of the Pacific Northwest. The space is divided into two areas, interior and exterior (public and private). The interior is meant to be a comfortable private enclosure, with operable windows, a fireplace, and a reading seat surrounded by windows. The exterior porch affords excellent views and a place for visitors.

Watch a short fly-around of the shelter HERE.
