Description:
This 100m² cabin will serve as a guest cottage and writer’s retreat for a South African writer. the owner wanted a space that felt connected to the pristine Wittedrift farmland area with its beautiful views over the ocean.
Part of the brief was that the cabin should be easily secured when not in use. All the facades of the cabin can be entirely closed off by a combination of steel & timber sliding screens. A covered patio / stoep area frames the entire northern façade while providing a subtle transition between the indoors & nature.
Inside, the cabin is essentially a two-bedroom home with an open plan living area providing beautiful views over the farm. The home office / workspace of the owner will be housed in the open roof space on top of the bedrooms.
