For the cabins, we designed an open-ended triangulated module that could be reconfigured to produce make different kinds of spaces, from small one-bedroom tent-like structures to larger multi-room aggregations for bigger groups of visitors. The cabins play with the interactions between agricultural-industrial materials and the familiar language of the contemporary cabin, ply-lined and domestic.
