A-Frame Cabin - a photo on Flickriver

A-Frame Cabin

An architectural icon from 1950 to about 1975, the A-frame is one of my favourite rural homes ever, a triangle-design built for lounging on outdoor decks and staring at nature.
I built this cabin inspired, in part, by Harlan Hubbard's book Payne Hollow, about living a simpler life in a hand-built home. The author is considered by many a modern-day Thoreau.

Two brothers, Dan and Ethan, burned out on modern working believed that stripping away modern comforts and living more simply in nature would lead to a more spiritually an creatively fulfilling life. They looked for a cabin in the woods and finally found out this old wooden A-Frame Cabin. They fixed up it and now they live there happily.

It's not my first cabin in the woods but it was very funny building the A structure and trying to add many weird details. I also played with the light to let the scene as deep as possible.

To build the basement I rip off the clever hammers technique by Letranger Absurde.

Thanks for stopping by!
