The buildings include the Hungarian AU workshop\u2019s wool-lined cabin retreat, the Hello Wood forest clubhouse, the cabin on wheels by Czech H3T architekti, the 12-metre high Swiss frundgallina lodge, the multi-storey homes by ZarCola from Italy, the cabin on stilts by the Spanish architect Josep Garriga + OfficeShophouse, and the Argentinian iR arquitectura\u2019s building that has the potential to become a passive house with the use of solar energy. <\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">The most important aspect of Hello Wood\u2019s internationally-renowned, innovative teaching method is that students from all over the world are able to gain practical experience to supplement the abstract, overwhelmingly theoretical classes they have at the university. At this year\u2019s camp, students were able to see first-hand how a 2D design drawing is used to create a real building. They also got to learn how to apply tin roofing, saw how good insulation works, and became familiar with the layers that make up the walls of the houses. Besides becoming acquainted with the building material and the values of teamwork, students also encountered innovative technological developments. For instance, LafargeHolcim Group, one of the largest cement producers in the world provided its new mineral thermal insulation material to the Hello Wood team, to gain experimental feedback at the early stages of going to market. One of the groups was also able to see what it is like to build a cabin using pre-manufactured wall panels thanks to a local manufacturer, Berger Houses, which makes prefabricated houses using technology unparalleled in Hungary. The use of environment-friendly ground screws, experimental infrared water purification equipment, the introduction of community cleanup and selective waste collection are all part of the effort to keep Hello Wood amongst the most innovative architectural education programmes.<\/span><b><\/b><\/p><div id=\"archi-2929324688\" class=\"archi-horizontal-in-content archi-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Horizontal responsive -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1313562808736279\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"4811561488\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">The innovative approach has been attracting the attention of the international architecture community for some time. Although participants arrive to the programme from all over the world, the private initiative is currently organised in two locations &#8211; Hungary and Argentina. To support the programme in its international roll-out the Hungarian Tourism Agency entered into a co-operative partnership with Hello Wood this year. The agency is promoting local creative industry internationally and committed itself to support Hello Wood\u2019s tiny house development.<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>A new wave of Rousseau-esque longing<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/span><b><\/b><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">It is no coincidence that cabins were the source of such inspiration this year for Hello Wood\u2019s curators, founder P\u00e9ter Pozs\u00e1r and architect Fruzsina Karig. \u2018The Tiny House Movement began in America but is spreading into Europe. Building your own cabin is now a mainstream trend here\u2019, says Fruzsina Karig. Hello Wood wants to spearhead the tiny house movement on this side of the Atlantic and is, therefore, doing its best to set the theoretical framework for this trend.<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Over the centuries there have always been periods when people in big cities en masse start yearning for a life closer to nature. \u2018They want to retreat and take a step back from the prevailing societal structures\u2019, says P\u00e9ter Pozs\u00e1r. Rousseau and Heidegger, not to mention hippies in the 1970s, all did the same. In recent years this craze has become popular among affluent people, and at the same time small-sized, temporary homes that can be erected quickly have become popular within social architecture, albeit for entirely different reasons. The creators of the Hello Wood camp have also been looking at the question of whether the same typology also works when functions conflict and contexts are different.<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">2019 will mark the 10th anniversary of Hello Wood International Summer University and Festival. Hence next year they will celebrate the decade-long community building with a new theme: Celebrations and Holidays. The event will recall the beginnings and the more recent years with new structures and ceremonial performances. Hello Wood requests the pleasure of everyone\u2019s company who is willing to join them to recall the mood and characteristics of the past in an environment designed for community&#8217;s reflections.<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Hello Wood team:<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">P\u00e9ter Pozs\u00e1r curator of Cabin Fever and co-founder of Hello Wood (Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design), Orsi Janota project leader, Head of the Hello Wood Education Division, Fruzsi Karig architect, co-curator of Cabin Fever, Andr\u00e1s Husz\u00e1r, D\u00e1vid R\u00e1day co-founders of Hello Wood, Gergely Luk\u00e1cs Sz\u0151ke graphic designer, Niki Lakatos, Anita Farkas project managers, Andi Cselovszki project coordinator, P\u00e9ter P\u00e9 Szab\u00f3 and M\u00e1t\u00e9 Nagy architectural coordinators, Niki Papp logistics<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Main sponsors: JAF Holz, Hungarian Tourism Agency<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Key sponsors: Egger, Knauf, Layher, Leier, LafargeHolcim, Remmers, Berger Houses<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Sponsors: Danube Truck, Mapei, Makita, Asahi, Fundermax, Krinner, NKA, Rothoblaas<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Design furnishings and objects by RisoPlant, FABATKA, Susu ker\u00e1mia, Rebu Ceramics, Ykra, Kezemura, Hannabi, CODOLAGNI DESIGN, Filip, Kele S\u00e1ra, YOZA, Studio Nomad, Position Collective, MultiFelt Factory, Paper Up, Blum&amp;Wolf, Komonka Textile, Urb\u00e1nfy \u00c9va, Ambrus \u00c1gi Textildesign<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Project Descriptions<br \/>\n<\/strong><b><\/b><strong>Grand Cabin Club by Hello Wood<br \/>\nTeam leaders:<\/strong> D\u00e1vid R\u00e1day, Andr\u00e1s Husz\u00e1r, N\u00f3ra Fekete, \u00c1d\u00e1m Bajtai<br \/>\n<strong>Team:<\/strong> Martin Varvas, Ogulcan Aksoy, Simona Rusna\u010dkov\u00e1, Lucia Pum, Milan Voorhorst, Maria Gracia Latorre, Matteo Rossetti, Filip Cerha, Miriam Rieke, Nolwen Major Franc\u00e8s, Csaba Rittling<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_227\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-227\" style=\"width: 3000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-227 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/grand_cabin013.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3000\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/grand_cabin013.jpg 3000w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/grand_cabin013-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/grand_cabin013-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/grand_cabin013-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/grand_cabin013-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-227\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Architecture photography by Tam\u00e1s Bujnovszky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">How can you create space for lots of people in a small wooden cabin? The Grand Cabin Club is not a lonely retreat, but a place nestled in the forest which is perfect for socialising, dinners with friends or even house parties.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Even the shape of the building makes you think of cosy evenings playing board games with friends. Its A-shape gives it a nostalgic feel, especially for Central Europeans familiar with the Czech-style mountain lodges which inspired its design. The Grand Cabin Club compensates for some of the downsides of classical forms. It was built using pre-fabricated, made-to-measure wooden panels by Berger Houses and its huge glass windows offer magnificent views of the surrounding countryside. The cabin can comfortably accommodate eight people, but as many as twenty people could fit inside for a party. This was made possible because the builders did not separate the central space with walls or floors. What\u2019s more, the two bedrooms and the bathroom are in \u2018boxes\u2019 which are accessible from inside but actually joined on to the outside of the cabin. These sleeping boxes, which open on to the interior of the cabin, and the large common space evoke one of the critical aspects of the Hello Wood camps &#8211; the blurring of boundaries between community and private areas.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Users will be able to make use of similar environmentally-friendly cabins in the future thanks to the technology behind this contemporary Hungarian pre-fabricated house.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Ziggurat Delivery by ZarCola<br \/>\nTeam leaders:<\/strong> Edoardo Giancola, Federico Zarattini<br \/>\n<strong>Team:<\/strong> Martin Kral, Amy Hickery, Jagoda Borkowska, Bar\u0131\u015f Do\u011fa \u00c7am, Kartikai Majithia, \u0160\u00e1rka Malo\u0161\u00edkov\u00e1, Nikolaj Srdi\u0107 Kranjc, Asli Candan, Linda Sze-To, Karoline Marken Smenes, Eda \u00dcnal, Didem G\u00fcne\u015f Yilmaz, Zolt\u00e1n S\u00f3v\u00e1ri<br \/>\n<b><\/b><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_228\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-228\" style=\"width: 3000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-228 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/ziggurat017.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3000\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/ziggurat017.jpg 3000w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/ziggurat017-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/ziggurat017-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/ziggurat017-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/ziggurat017-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-228\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Architecture photography by Tam\u00e1s Bujnovszky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The team had two essential considerations in mind when designing and building the Ziggurat Delivery cabin. Firstly, it needed to be a portable multi-storey building, so it is made up of two separate, portable container-sized units. Secondly, those living in the cabin, which is made from wood and Airium, a mineral thermal insulation material reminiscent of foam concrete and produced by the LafargeHolcim Group, should come into contact with the surrounding natural environment as much as possible, and their everyday lives should be closely linked to seasonal changes. For this reason, the house is fitted with large windows and the area on the ground floor for communal activities, such as cooking, is deliberately tiny to encourage people to carry out their daily chores and activities outside when the weather is nice. Ladders are used to access the upper floor, which is supported by wooden beams, and the bedroom, which has space for two beds. This is a more closed-off, private space than the ground floor and gives people the chance to relax and spend time alone. In cold weather, the warmth from the chimney at the centre of the upper level will heat the entire space.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Project Hello Wool (woolhouse) by AU Workshop + Marton Low<br \/>\nTeam leaders:<\/strong> Luk\u00e1cs Szederk\u00e9nyi, D\u00e9nes Emil Ghyczy, Marton Low<br \/>\n<strong>Team:<\/strong> D\u00f3ra Riederauer, M\u00e1rk Winkler, Al\u017eb\u011bta Br\u016fhov\u00e1, Harriet Dyke, Lenneke Slangen, Tina Peirlinck<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_229\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-229\" style=\"width: 3000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-229 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/hello_wool011.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3000\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/hello_wool011.jpg 3000w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/hello_wool011-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/hello_wool011-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/hello_wool011-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/hello_wool011-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-229\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Architecture photography by Tam\u00e1s Bujnovszky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This cabin, which is both clad and insulated with wool, is specially designed for use by one person \u2013 a space for getting away from it all and getting lost in your thoughts. With positions for sitting and lying down facing one another, it is reminiscent of a psychotherapist\u2019s room and cabin users can either take the place of the person asking questions or that of the one providing the answers, depending on whether they would prefer to think in silence or voice their problems.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Two layers of wool cover this cabin retreat. The reason for this is that although water may seep through the first layer and small bugs may hide within it, the second, inner layer will always stay dry, and insects will never make it that far. Wool is an excellent insulating material, too, and it does not just help protect against the cold, it also keeps out the heat. For safety reasons, the tin-roofed building has been designed so that there is no chance of the walls retaining heat &#8211; the warm air that enters the rooftop area escapes via a chimney-like vent and tiny holes in the wood panels around it.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Project vertical cabin by H3T architekti<br \/>\nTeam leaders:<\/strong> Karel Harazim, Tom\u00e1\u0161 Madro, Marek Barjak<br \/>\n<strong>Team:<\/strong> Michaela Vatra\u013eov\u00e1, Lauren Fashokun, Danny Martin, Chloe Jakharia, Carl Harris, Karolina Lazar, Josef Vild, Maria Walker, Katie Hay, Lesley Cheung, Moldovan Bianca-Claudia, Sabrah Islam<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_230\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-230\" style=\"width: 3000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-230\" src=\"http:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/vertical_cabin004.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3000\" height=\"3001\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/vertical_cabin004.jpg 3000w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/vertical_cabin004-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/vertical_cabin004-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/vertical_cabin004-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/vertical_cabin004-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/vertical_cabin004-1200x1200.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-230\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Architecture photography by Tam\u00e1s Bujnovszky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Wheels have been fitted to one side of this vertical cabin, making it highly portable and therefore allowing users to set it up wherever they like. However, the wheels are not fitted to the bottom of the cabin, but to the longest side, so it must be placed in a horizontal position before it is transported to the desired location. The cabin was initially put together in a horizontal position, and although the light wooden structure can be moved into vertical position using human force and ropes, the roof is heavy and must be fitted on to the building by crane.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This project was unusual compared to other projects this year, as the vertical cabin was made from re-used materials. The builders worked with scrap material that had been left behind by other teams from previous years.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As the whole cabin is based on the concept of mobility, it is worth taking this into account when fitting out the interior: the simplest solution is to fix the furniture to the walls.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Project Treehouse, by frundgallina<br \/>\nTeam leaders:<\/strong> Pascal Deschenaux, Aziz Temel, Francesco Borghini<br \/>\n<strong>Team:<\/strong> Maria Victoria Gracia, Miranda Rigby, Kam Lai Man, Nguyen Hoang Minh, Jack Bowen, Igor Nesterov, Katarina Martonakova, Hugh Gibbs, Evgeny Makarenko, Nanu Youttananukorn, Anna Varga-Kardos, Karolina Krzyzanowska, Alice Kim, Laia Bramona Collet, Fruzsina Karig<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_231\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-231\" style=\"width: 3000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-231\" src=\"http:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/treehouse010.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3000\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/treehouse010.jpg 3000w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/treehouse010-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/treehouse010-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/treehouse010-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/treehouse010-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-231\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Architecture photography by Tam\u00e1s Bujnovszky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It is the small details, such as the closed and tilted angles of the sides that define the final look, minimalist form and considerable (12.5m) height of the Treehouse. As it is not a classic cubic structure, the inward-leaning triangular walls significantly reduce the interior space in the cabin. The only way of expanding the living space was therefore for the builders to increase the height of the building. It is fair to say that it is the small details that define the Treehouse, and not the other way around. The builders very much concentrated on the details before focusing on the whole.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Treehouse is a haven and functions almost like a lighthouse for lost travellers. People inside can put a light on the roof of the wood-panelled cabin to signal to travellers that they are more than welcome to visit.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Although the building is open on the ground floor, the upper sections, which are accessed by a ladder, are completely closed off. It is there that weary travellers can find solitude, put their head down and escape the noise, cold, wind and other extreme weather outside. In the closed-off upper part, there are three hammock-style sleeping spaces on top of one another which are perfect for rest and relaxation.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Cabin modules by iR arquitectura<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Team leaders:<\/strong> Fermin Indavere, Tommaso Polli<br \/>\n<strong>Team:<\/strong> Leo Hollmann, Magdi Khalil, Bartek Grzesznik, Yuliia Zalomaikina, Motong Yang, Katie van Dorssen, Henry Brook, Spanelli Efterpi Konstantina, Adrienn Sasv\u00e1ri, Mirna Grubisic, Christian Swallow, Polina Bouli, Emanuel Sanchez Pinela, M\u00e1t\u00e9 Nagy<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_232\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-232\" style=\"width: 3000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-232\" src=\"http:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/cabin_modules025.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3000\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/cabin_modules025.jpg 3000w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/cabin_modules025-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/cabin_modules025-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/cabin_modules025-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/cabin_modules025-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-232\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Architecture photography by Tam\u00e1s Bujnovszky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If our starting point is the notion that a house is defined by the various needs of its users, then it is a good idea to build it using separate portable modules, each designed for different purposes. It\u2019s easy to split this cabin into its individual elements, such as the kitchen, the bedrooms, the communal and storage areas, and the bathroom.\u00a0 Different combinations of these transportable units can then be put back together without difficulty.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This cabin is a passive house which operates using solar energy. The builders were inspired by the Plug-In Social project in Argentina. Plug-in Social used simple solar panels to supply hot water to impoverished communities in the suburbs of Buenos Aires. According to plans, green energy will also be used inside the Hello Wood cabin. Heating, for example, will be supplied via a Trombe wall which absorbs and stores the heat from the sunlight and then lets it into the living area through air vents.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Solar energy can also be used for cooking in the \u2018solar kitchen\u2019, where Fresnel lenses help collect the heat from the sun\u2019s rays. The communal area in the middle is covered by a transparent polycarbonate roof, under which plants could even be grown, like in a greenhouse.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>I am a monument by Josep Garriga + OfficeShophouse<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Team leaders:<\/strong> Josep Garriga, Patxi Martin, Natalia Vera Vigaray<br \/>\n<strong>Team:<\/strong> Aloutsanidis Vasilis, Lance Macadangdang, Rogier Tamminga, Hena Wang, Darya Moatazed-Keivani, Berta Ballestin, Lara Gonzalez, Pyeori JUng, Charlotte Cocking, Zhao Zhou, F\u00e1bi\u00e1n Vill\u00e1nyi, Ruairidh Murdock, Gabrielle Sanchez<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_233\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-233\" style=\"width: 3000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-233\" src=\"http:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/i_am_a_monument011.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3000\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/i_am_a_monument011.jpg 3000w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/i_am_a_monument011-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/i_am_a_monument011-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/i_am_a_monument011-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/i_am_a_monument011-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-233\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Architecture photography by Tam\u00e1s Bujnovszky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A new take on an abandoned project from a previous Hello Wood camp, this stilt house provides shade and refuge, and almost appears to hover in the surrounding landscape. Although the builders used their own ideas to improve the existing structure, they also respected its current features. This approach is in line with the architectural principle which states that a building is never finished \u2013 over time it is always transformed according to the needs of those using and renovating it. The name \u2018I am a monument\u2019 was chosen to honour the previous builders\u2019 efforts. This year, a roof and an upper floor with side walls have been built on to the existing stilts.<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The cabin extends upwards and is designed to ensure that at ground level it interferes as little as possible with nature and that it leaves as few traces as possible. At the same time, it tries to give users as many opportunities as possible to get close to nature. While the upper floor offers a more private, protected space suitable for rest and relaxation, the ground floor is open, and daily chores can even be carried out in the open air. Last but not least, there are magnificent views from the roof. Those who climb to the top will be able to enjoy and take in a stunning panoramic view of the surrounding countryside.<\/p>\n<div id=\"archi-983192746\" class=\"archi-after-content archi-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Square responsive -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1313562808736279\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2313495938\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yearning for a life closer to nature: architects build 7 cabin prototypes At this year\u2019s Hello Wood International<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":228,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[78],"tags":[122,123,120,124,121],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.9 -
