"Cocoon", our 2nd award winning entry for the "Romantic Cabin for Two" architectural competition entry.
Winner's announcement:

The competition organized by Buildner and Earth Energies Sanctuary in New Zealand, was seeking for entries for sustainable solutions to be built on the site of the retreat. Our 2nd prize winning proposal was justified by the jury:
‘Cocoon’, according to the project statement, is meant to ‘wrap its inhabitants in a warm embrace.’ The project considers opposing forces to establish a cohesive and intimate space: openness and enclosure, shade and sunlight, warmth and coolness. The timber and steel-plate structure is clad on the interior with warm, natural materials - pine board, ceramic tiling - and topped by aluminum roofing and solar panels. According to the jury: “Cocoon presents a minimal proposal with interesting subtleties such as the inclination of the roof and sidewall that contribute to the performance of the space and systems. The project is well optimized and its concept carries through to its details.
