Slate Cabin
A writer’s retreat
Mimicking the art of constructing cairns, whereby walkers collect stones and build place-markers along their route — a raw, unclad building will be gradually transformed through layers of slate, forming a textured, stylish exterior.
A neat structure of slate, the cabin fits effortlessly into its surroundings and embodies simplicity and style.
In contrast to its grey slate exterior, inside you’ll find a single, cosy room clad with honeyed wood. A kitchen and built-in table form a sitting space, while the bed sits on a raised platform providing a magnificent view of the surrounding scenery.
A table overlooking a perfectly framed view provides the ideal setting for people seeking a quiet retreat to come to read, write and relax.
