Sketches of Cabin and its interaction with the outdoors |
The Murcutt Cabin instils delight in the occupant through various architectural design techniques. The most appealing technique is how the entire structure opens like a flower to the surrounding environment, whilst at the same time disappearing into the landscape revealing only its structural framework.
The cabin in its open state allows the natural elements to playfully interact throughout the structure; the breeze floats from one side to the other, daylight plays on the rigid timber panels and corrugated steel surface and the sound of birds echo gently within the more secluded spaces.

Developed sketches of creating a delightful experience |
The Murcutt Cabin connects directly to the Australian climate through choice of materials, such as the two water tanks and timber frame, and its sustainable design techniques. According to Glenn Murcutt and his Marika-Alderton House, it is a combination of the above elements that create a delightful experience within architecture.
