Eco-Friendly Cabin Norderhov is located in Krokskogen Forests in Norway, outside the town of Honefoss on a steep hillside overlooking Lake Steinsfjorden. Designed by Atelier Oslo the cabin is organized around several outdoors spaces that provide shelter from the wind and receives the sun at different times of the day.
The interior is a shaped as a continuous space. The curved walls and ceilings form continuous surfaces clad with birch plywood. The floor follows the terrain and divides the plan into several levels that also defines the different functional zones of the cabin. The transitions between these levels create steps that provide varies places for sitting and lying down. The fireplace is located at the center of the cabin and seen from all levels. The iconic Butterfly Chair in brown leather adding a cozyness to this area. Large glass walls are located in the living and dining areas. The frames of the glass are detailed carefully to avoid seeing it from the inside. This creates a more direct relationship with the nature outside.
