Geometric Wooden Cabins that Wow and Delight: Innovative Ideas for Everyone

It is nice to sometimes move away from your regular home and spend some time in a structure that ushers in the holiday vibe and offers a more relaxing refuge. That is just what you get with a wooden cabin that ushers in a natural, holiday vibe even when it sits right in your backyard! A wooden cabin takes you far away from the more polished and ‘concrete’ man-made finishes and the warmth of wood gives a welcoming vibe. Since most of us tend to associate the image of a cabin with holiday in the woods, it is easy to turn a small cabin into a great and engaging escape for the entire family.

Tiny Workstation Cabin in the backyard with modern geometric style












While there are plenty of cabins that you might have come across all these years on Decoist, today we take a look at trio of unique and exclusive cabins that blend geometric contrast and style with the classic cabin look. One sits on the edge of a pond in Czech Republic while another is a small wooden structure in the backyard that serves as office space. Then there is the third that is the perfect tiny house for a couple who wish to get away from it all… Pick the gorgeous cabin that you love the most!

Geometric Office in the Backyard

The Workstation Cabin is a design that allows you turn pretty much any small backyard into a perfect little setting for your home office, kids’ playzone, a retreat that helps you get some ‘me’ time and a whole lot more. The 15-sided wooden structure sits on metallic stilts and ensures that is absolutely no damage to the flora on the lot while glass walls connect the interior with the scenery outside seamlessly. Simple metallic stairs lead up to the interior of the wooden cabin and on the inside, a custom desk and chair maintain the exceptional geo style that the cabin exudes. Strips of LED lighting and angular walls put the final touches on these space-savvy cabins.

Tiny Triangular Hideaway

The Grand Cabin by Hello Wood takes an entirely different direction when it comes to bringing geometric charm to the classic cabin design. Instead of using a minimal and contemporary form, this little cabin relies on the traditional A-frame design and does so while accommodating just a single occupant or a couple at its very best. You can even expand the design to fit in more folk and with the right décor, this little cabin can offer a great staycation in your own backyard as you escape the global pandemic.

Lovely Cottage next to the Pond in Czech Republic paints a picture of serenity

Inspired by traditional fishing huts, we propose a small cottage on the shore of a pond nestled in the picturesque landscape of the Vysočina region. Its size is limited by legislation. The maximum built-up area of 50 m2 and the maximum height of 5 m require a specific layout for family recreation. The building consists of four small masses, three interconnected and the fourth torn off, standing nearby.

  • Ravoli Drive Residence

    Sited on a site slightly under an acre in the heart of the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles, the site for this estate residence descends over thirty feet from top to bottom. Narrow at the street and widening toward the rear, the building was designed to appear as a very private single story structure from the street and expand as the house moves into the site. At just under 14,000 sq. ft. the house was conceived of as a California Modernist Estate the building utilizes the site slope and widening to create a wing typology each reaching into the site to capture garden spaces, set up views and account for service amenities. Designed for peak privacy to the street, there are a series of site walls and fencing that define the property edge. After passing through the gate, the entry to the house is through a descending Entry Garden with water feature with a view through the house to the slopes of Will Rodgers State Park beyond. Shaped as a modified T, the wings of the house extend into the landscape creating separate wings dedicated to the elaborate programming of the building. Containing formal spaces for Entry, Living and Dining the house also offers a large entertainment style kitchen, Large Family Room, Library, 16 person Theater, Wine Cellar, Gym with Spa Bath including Sauna and Steam Room, secondary winter closets, dedicated two bedroom Guest House as well as six bedrooms including a Master Suite over 1,500 square feet with his and hers baths and closets as well as a garage for seven plus additional carport parking for three. All of this is balanced with a series of large exterior decks, patios and pool all wrapping around the stately eighty-foot tall Eucalyptus tree, which served as the aesthetic basis for the materiality of the building. Balancing the solidity of the extensive board form concrete walls is an expansive use of glass and the warmth of stained wood siding throughout the building. The remainder of the building is wrapped in integral colored steel troweled stucco. This palette is based on the colors and tones of the tree that is the center of the garden. Passing materials from the interior to the exterior, doors disappearing into internal pockets and flooring extending onto the decks and patios all help to create a seamless relationship for the interior to the exterior, house to land. This relationship realizes a full use of the site for its entire acre site.
