\"Cucu<\/div>\n

New York practice Studio Bucky<\/a> has nestled an off-grid cabin<\/a> among trees in rural Westmeath, Ireland<\/a>, shrouding its tapered exterior in red-stained shingles<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Named Cucu, Studio Bucky<\/a> designed the compact dwelling for Sams\u00fa<\/a>, a cabin rental brand that aims to provide unique retreats in the Irish countryside.<\/p>\n

Red-stained shingles cloak the cabin’s slanted walls, giving it a distinctive appearance intended to recall agricultural buildings and metal roofs found in the surrounding countryside.<\/p>\n

“The goal was to create a small structure with a clear sense of personality and wonder,” Studio Bucky<\/a> founder Alexander Buckeridge told Dezeen.<\/p>\n

“The client wanted something that stood apart from the wave of standardised cabin hospitality, so we focused on a design that responds to its landscape rather than simply sitting within it,” he continued.<\/p>\n

“The building is designed to slow you down, catch your eye from a distance, and become more introspective once inside.”<\/p>\n

Inside, the cabin’s square floor plan comprises a seating nook, a kitchen, a log-burning stove and a toilet and shower room closed off behind a sliding door.<\/p>\n

A ladder leads to a sleeping area on a mezzanine level above, which features a circular window overlooking the surrounding nature.<\/p>\n
