A Turkish-based company called SO? Architecture & Ideas has unveiled a beautiful new off-grid cabin that is designed to bring all the benefits of prefabricated construction and eco-friendly dwelling to the border between Turkey and Greece.
Simply and aptly named 'Cabin on the Border,' this prefabricated space comes equipped with a minimalist layout that includes more than enough room for lounging and sleeping, not to mention a compact bathroom with all the necessities. A wood-burning stove helps provide warmth on cold evenings, while a rainwater harnessing system helps take care of water needs.
Another interesting feature of this off-grid cabin is the fact that occupants can lower an entire wall if they want to feel more immersed in the outdoor elements, making this a fine example of a cabin that provides shelter but also lets you embrace nature when you feel the need.
