NORTH / SOUTH are experimental micro cabins located in northern Sweden – twin cabins that share the same traits – materiality, colors, and content, but have different personalities.

NORTH, hostile and wild, sits towards the open plain with its quills combed back by the strong winds and makes a defiant and aggressive stance.

SOUTH, friendly and tame, tamed by the weather and its surrounding. It looks peaceful while levitating above the ground beneath with its quills disappearing towards it.

Quills are an essential element of the cabins that speaks the same language but in two very different tones. They consist of black painted timber sticks placed in several layers, horizontally or vertically, on a steel structure that supports them. Layering the sticks creates a thick coat around the core, offering an extra layer of insulation but also creates a unique cladding.

Cabins have the same prefabricated core, which is delivered in one piece to the site. Outer walls are insulated and cladded in steel sheet. The core contains entrance storage, bathroom, kitchenette/dining/office, and a bedroom for two people. Everything is kept at a bare minimum with the majority of furniture concealed in cabinets or inbuilt in the walls like the tables.

No matter how they are perceived, their sole purpose is to offer a silent and remote place for focus, meditation, and contact with the nature around them. Whether the visitor is a writer, a programmer, or a hunter, the cabin offers everything needed while working or resting for their adventures.
