Design Story
It began with a quiet moment by the campfire, surrounded by the stillness of the mountains, when an idea took shape. I dreamed of creating a space where nature would be woven into every corner. This would be a biophilic retreat shaped by the idea of: "Let the land tell me what to design"
The steep slope of the mountain became the cabin’s guide, its contours untouched. Resting upon concrete footers and wooden columns, the structure floats above the earth, never disturbing the ground it calls home.
Inside, simplicity meets indulgence—clean, modern lines bathed in natural light from the large windows, offer a quiet luxury that makes you feel comfortable and alive. Here, the mountain is not a backdrop; it is a partner, a muse, and the very heart of the design.
