The team designed the tiny homeas a space where smooth transitions between walls and roof create a flowing space that looks and feels organic. Traditionalstructural elements, typical of the mobile huts used in the 19th and 20th century by shepherds, were combined to provide optimal insulation and protection from the elements. The hut’s sturdy exterior uses moisture resistant layers and hard-wearing woodwork that can be customized in different colors.
