Project Information
A waterlogged area of the garden became the inspiration for a peaceful waterside retreat.
Rather than working against the natural conditions, we embraced them, creating a pond with a bespoke timber cabin overlooking the water.
Featuring natural larch shingles, a curved roof and specially designed arched beams, The Crafted Cabin combines thoughtful design, natural materials and craftsmanship to create a quiet place of escape.
