A ‘broken-plan’ layout creates defined zones for dining, cooking and relaxation, while large windows face east, south and west to bring in natural light throughout the day. The heart of the cabin is a combined living area and kitchen. The inherent warmth and textural qualities of the various materials add cosiness to the otherwise pared-back space, ensuring the whole place feels calm and welcoming. There are also a few stone elements dotted here and there, together with soft linen curtains, woven baskets and wall hangings, and snuggly woollen rugs and blankets. Throughout, the palette has been kept as simple and natural as possible, with oak flooring and fittings offset by dolomite plaster walls from St Leo. All have been transformed inside and out, with swathes of glass framing views of the valley and forest and providing a constant visual connection with the landscape outside. There’s also a separate guest annex built between the tree trunks. ĭesigned for simple summer and winter living, the main house is spread over two floors, with the lower forming a self-contained suite with a bedroom, bathroom, minibar and sauna. Perched on top of a ridge and surrounded by pine trees, heathland and gentle sandy beaches, it’s rustic yet refined – the kind of place that makes you unwind and breathe more deeply as soon as you step through the door. For today’s home tour we’re heading deep into the Swedish wilderness, to a beautiful cabin that’s just been remodelled by Copenhagen-based Norm Architects.
