italian architecture firm, lab zero have designed ‘yeta log cabin’, a small multi-purpose hut, that can be placed in a multitude of locations to provide shelter.
the dwelling measures approximately 12.5′ wide x 14.5′ long x 10.75′ tall, and is equipped with a small kitchen and bathroom, complete with a shower. the undefined interior space means that the cabin can be used according to specific needs. when not in use, the deck folds up, thus creating a structure that appears to be a large stack of cut wood.
sustainably built with untreated wood, LED lighting and photovoltaic modules on the cantilevered awning, the cabin can operate either on or off the grid. carbon-based filters collect and filter rainwater, while black water is stored in a separate tank. the exterior shell is insulated and the glass panel is double pane, making it possible to comfortably inhabit the hut in any environment.
