2 Sparrow Roost Cabin – Cabin Design

Home Architects Create Compact 2-Story Cabin Design for Clients

e-mail cabin design architectHouse planners at Rand Soellner created this small cabin design for clients desiring a 2-story modest house with minimal square footage and minimal cost.  This cabin is a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom design.  The small residence also has an interior stair, hearth room, kitchen and quite a few amenities for such a compact cabin design. If you are the sort of person who wants a huge bang for his buck, then this is the cabin design for you.  Cabin designs don’t get much smaller than this and still permit 2-stories and other upgrade features.

Cabin design for clients looking for a small cabin either in the mountains for on suburban flat land, your choice.  This has a very small footprint, so this is fit almost anywhere.  Part of the design magic that makes this interesting scheme possible is open plan design philosophies.  Soellner uses enlightened planning approaches in which he overlaps adjacent “implied” spaces.  The result is that the combined spaces are actually larger together than they would have been apart, but, because there are no partitions between these public areas, the combined rooms are larger than their compartmentalized counterparts.  Surprisingly, some of the interior views afforded by this process can be as long as 40 feet!  That’s a large vista for such a compact cabin design.  Paradoxically, by removing some of the more traditional residential partitions one might expect from standard designs by others, the Soellner designs give larger dimensions for the combined spaces.

Of course, Clients are free to select whatever appliances they wish, so upscale features like cabinet faces or stainless steel are available, along with upscale manufacturers, including Wolf, SubZero, KitchenAide, GE Monogram, Dacor and others.  The concept is to concentrate as much quality as possible in the smaller package.
