If you need to escape from your daily grind and a civilized environment, Cabins are portals into the wilderness. Cabin Porn’s new book showcases some of the most amazing and unconventional homes around the world.
Most of us wish secretly to spend the rest of our lives in these little wooden houses away from the urban pollution and its noisy cities. All these following places are as small as simple and lead us back toward the essentials by getting and staying out longer.
1. This small cabin is good enough to rest and revitalize yourself by overlooking an icy lake and some mountains in Kulusuk, south-east of Greenland. The closest town only has a tiny population of 267 people. Fishermen and wildlife seekers will enjoy the richness of the location.
2. A yurt in the wilderness of the forests of Keene, located further north from New York, could be a great weekend escape, away from a big city. A getaway spot that offers quiet and back to roots way of life, with an annual gathering of friends called YurtFest.
3. At first it could be seen as a horror house in this dark place, but this cabin in the middle of the woods is the best place to warm the heart up. Located in Bosnia, it was converted from a water mill by a Serbian painter, who also built a few others along the river in the village of Zelenkovac.
4. Here is a tiny isolated hut. The landscape looks like the American Midwest, but it’s actually based in Germany near the Austrian border. A quite remote destination that make you feel lorn. The perfect place to shut yourself off from the burdens of the modern world.
5. We can’t see much on this photo compared to the treasure you will find inside. This underground cabin was built by photojournalist Dan Price, into a hill in Joseph, Oregon. After reaching saturation point, he created it to find back himself.
6. If you are not scared of heights, this place will probably provide you the best view in the world. This little cabin is the Three Fingers Mountain Lookout in the Boulder River Wilderness, Washington, originally built in 1931. It will send you to seventh heaven.
7. Deer Isle in Maine hosts this bunkhouse and a tiny hamlet. Nearly a decade old, it has been built recently and completed in 2009, from an inspiration of New England style, through a timber frame experimentation. Moreover, a garden in the backyard will provide you fresh vegetables and a passion for cultivating the earth, what is the best way to get closer with nature.
