Design award: $250

From design to built

A mountain cabin design shaped by its site, with the built cabin still to come

The photos show the building site before construction: a cleared clearing in the BC forest with wide views to snow-capped peaks in the south and southwest. No cabin appears yet, so the built result can't be compared with the winning design. What the photos do show is how closely the design was tuned to this place, framing these exact mountain views from its big windows and glass sunroom.

What was kept

No built cabin appears in the photos, so nothing of the layout, materials or colors can be checked yet.
The design's renders use these same site views: the sunroom render frames the southwest peaks seen from the patio area, and the exterior render sits in the cleared driveway area shown in the site photos.
The south- and southwest-facing glass in the design lines up with where the photos show the strongest mountain views.

What changed

Nothing can be judged yet: the photos show the land before building, and none show a finished cabin or interior.

Highlights

The view from the patio area toward the southwest peaks is exactly what the glass sunroom with its hammock was designed to capture.
The cleared, fairly level site suits the flat slab-on-grade foundation the brief asked for.
The ring of tall evergreens around the clearing gives the planned cabin a sheltered, private setting with mountains beyond.
