The conceptual 'Silence Amplifier' cabin is an outdoor-focused structure that would provide travelers looking to escape the hustle of urban life with a way to maximize their exposure to nature. The cabin features a compact amount of space inside, but boasts an expansive window that encourages the visitor to spend their time focusing on the outdoor environment. This would work effectively as a space to relax, meditate and absorb the healing power of the natural environment that comes with its lush green and quiet stillness.
The conceptual 'Silence Amplifier' cabin is the design work of Gianluca Santosuosso and Matthias Kimmel, and was explained further by Santosuosso who said, "Instead of simply creating a building, we are proposing to create an architectural organism that is able to collect the silence of the forest, channel it and provide it to the person in the cabin in an amplified and customizable manner."
