The 'Cabin in a Loft' by Terri Chiao is a small cabin placed within a house. This piece is located in a two-bedroom loft in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The cabin and treehouse serve as private sleeping cabins, each with its own semi-private garden, set off from a shared living space.
The 'Cabin in a Loft' by Terri Chiao looks almost unreal, giving plenty of inspiration to parents looking to build their child a perfect fort.
