I’m not sure a cabin is ever truly finished, but this is as good a time as any to say it is… I still have a long list of things I want to do, but I’m finally to the point where I don’t feel “I have to” do them – at least for now. Still on my wish list are a room divider between the desk and entry area, a built-in storage bench for the entry, routered out rafters for the door locking bars, an upgraded bathroom with a composting toilet and a real shower stall, foundation skirting for some secure under cabin storage, and last but not least, a shipping container barn (more on this at a later date).” – Steve

A Post and Beam Cabin in the B.C. Woods
The cabin is pretty small with just 320 ft2 (29.7 m2) on the ground floor, and wood finishes inside add to the cozy feel. The floors and ceilings are pine, but the walls are the real eye-catcher. Sam and Monika nailed live-edge boards over painted drywall with gaps between the boards so as to mimic chinked timbers.” – Small House Bliss

Small Cabin on Stilts at Flathead Lake
Locals call the granite and shale cliff overlooking Montana’s Flathead Lake “The Matterhorn”. It is a place to observe the natural world: the lake, the surrounding ponderosa pine forest, and especially the eagles and ospreys that nest nearby. Together, the water, cliff, and trees form a classic picture of the expansive American West, and it is clear why Montana is still known as North America’s great destination.” – ArchDaily

Cabin Habit Nissen Hut Inspired Cabin
The design of the shed is drawn from my love of all things vintage, urban-industrial and quirky. I love all things mid-century so it’s basically an improved and residentially styled Nissen hut, fully insulated and lined. I couldn’t find one to buy, so I got one made. It has an airy feeling inside, and yet the generous arc of the curved varnished ply ceiling cocoons you like a womb.” – Abigail
