Floating House

An accessible, sustainable, refined home for city dwellers to attain their own piece of the woods with simplicity and elegance.

Overview

This project is a development model for simple, affordable, and easily buildable cabins in upstate New York. Designed to achieve a raw functionality, each cabin features an open kitchen and great room. Modest bedrooms simplify the daily moments of domestic life and invite residents to feel at home in the trees. Large windows provide unique views from each room and flood spaces with natural light. The result is a setting that provides a welcome escape from the dense confines of city living.
