cabin

To avoid excavating the land, Pang and Boyle designed a structural platform to keep the cabin level.

They may have built this family cabin economically, but view of the ocean is priceless.

One big budget-saver was eliminating the drywall and embracing the raw plywood finish (plus a light stain).

Wire mesh was sandwich-framed between wood planks to create a modern-looking railing from simple materials—the result of a collaborative brainstorm with the local carpenter.

The cedar exterior of the building was pre-stained by a local supplier. The charcoal hue helps it disappear visually into the forest, and contrasts with the light and warm interior.

A family chose MyCabin to construct prefab structures in their home country of Latvia. The prefab structures have space for work, sleep, and relaxation.

The plywood walls and ceiling offer a subtle and organic pattern as well as warm texture for the interior. The cabin windows are double-glazed and feature matte black aluminum frames.
