There is something compelling and captivating about modern architecture. While we’ve seen some pretty unique examples recently, today we get a look at something special. The Diamanten Cabin is an eye-catching, contrasting creation that sits alongside some ancient surroundings.
This timber-clad cabin is found in the mountains of Norway. The sharp design gets its name from the Norwegian word for diamond, sitting among traditional wooden buildings from the 19th-century. The retreat’s minimalist form extends from the area’s architecture, doing so with geometric angles throughout. The structure is mounted on a central pedestal in order to reduce disruption to the existing site.
The interior of the tiny structure features just a single, open room. However, the panels of glazing in the wall and ceiling provide stunning and unadulterated views of the stunning surroundings. The structure was designed as a retreat, and it looks to be a great location to escape the madness of reality. Kick back, relax and overlook the town of Oppdal below.
Take a closer look at the Diamanten Cabin in the images below and head over to A38 Arkitekter to learn more about the cabin immediately. In the meantime, keep it locked with The Culture Curators for more modern architecture coming very soon.
