Space-Savvy Transportable Cabin in Wood Connects You with Nature

Prefabricated wooden cabins bring with them a host of advantages for those searching for simpler, eco-friendly and cheaper housing options. Allowing you to live off the grid while encouraging a green lifestyle, the H- Eva Cabin designed by A6A in France is a transportable prefab that can be placed without disturbing the landscape it sits in. This leaves minimal carbon footprint and with additional planet-friendly features like photovoltaic panels and energy-saving appliances, you can take this comfy and space-savvy cabin to a whole new level. The idea here was to combine modern ergonomics with classic design to offer the best of both worlds and it is safe to say that the cabin succeeds in this regard.

H- Eva Cabin in France allows you to connect with nature

Locally sourced wood has been used for this clever cabin where a small kitchen, bunk beds and a smart dining area save ample space. While lighter tones of wood take over on the inside, it is burned Douglas cladding boards on the exterior that give it a vernacular presence. This also helps keep the insects out in an organic fashion and a couple of large glass windows offer visual connectivity with the outdoors. A smart, sustainable and space-savvy cabin that does all it can to help you once again reconnect with nature in a pollution-free manner! [Photography: Agnès Clotis]

Its dimensions adapt to the road jigs. Depending on the use and the field, three widths are proposed, 2.50m, 3m and 3.50m. The modules can vary in length from 8 to 9 or 12 m, for an interior surface ranging from 16 to 38 m2. The maximum height is 3.40m. Elements can connect to each other to form larger sets. H-eva offers autonomy at different scales. To warm, to light, to bathe, those needs of every day of which one forgets the hidden complexity.

    This project is a full interior renovation to a 1950’s ranch in Prairie Village, KS. The goal of this project was to rework the existing floor plan to create distinct rooms while creating continuous space. This was achieved by bisecting the plan with a wall of deep poché that houses the new master bedroom closets and the appliance | pantry wall of the kitchen. This wall creates a deep jamb condition further defining the rooms while maintaining an open, clear spatial relationship.

  • The Invisible Order of Daily Life

    This is an old apartment with 40 years of history. The designer rotated the original axis and redesigned the structure in order to integrate the confusing flow line. There was only a single side of light in this space, after the rearrangement, the three sides of light, air and natural were introduced into the space giving the old house a new look. The designer tried to expose the original beams in the open space and colored the lowest beams with grey, which goes with the façade, so as to weaken the protruding beams. Also showing the natural beauty of the original structure within the space. On the other hand, there is no over-decorated design in the bedroom and the other rooms, only using the simple point-line-plan structure and non-chromatic to create a balanced picture. On the flow line planning, the designer integrated the main entrances of five rooms into one hallway. Using spray painting, wallpaper, secret doors, and sliding doors on the aisle space, which used to be confusing at the first place, to hide the appearance but also maintain its function. The design enlarged the space and made it return to the original strength and essence.
