This document exists because beautiful land deserves a worthy structure.
CABN No. 01 is not a cabin plan. It is a complete architectural world — resolved in every detail, from the weathered corten skin to the hemlock soffit, from the thirty-two linear feet of glazing to the blackened steel millwork within.
It was made for landowners who want to build something worthy of their land — and have never found a starting point equal to that ambition.
True luxury in nature is not about excess. It is about precision — the right material in the right place, a structure that earns its position in the landscape rather than imposing on it. CABN is designed around this conviction. Every decision inside this document reflects it.
Sustainability is not a feature. It is the premise. Corten steel that weathers honestly. UV-grade plywood that ages well. Materials selected not for trend but for longevity — for the land, and for the generations who will use it after you.

Design intent drawings
Fourteen sheets across ten drawing types. Every one produced to the standard of a full architectural engagement — because that is exactly what this is.
Glazing
Over thirty-two linear feet of wood-framed glazing. Sixteen feet of floor-to-ceiling glass flanking the galley kitchen, with operable patio doors for indoor-outdoor cooking and hosting.
Materiality
Weathered corten steel exterior. Blackened steel-faced millwork and accents. High-grade UV plywood interior finish. Hardy hemlock natural wood soffits. Corrugated metal roofing.
Living
Wood-burning or bioethanol fireplace in primary sleeping quarters. Loft-style guest sleeping above the entry foyer. Integrated millwork desk for remote work. Dual-zone ductless mini-split conditioning.
Kitchen
Robust galley-style kitchen. Induction range, refrigerator/freezer, and combination oven. Designed for serious use — not the afterthought of most cabin plans.
Outdoor living
Separate indoor and outdoor shower with privacy screen. Integrated rolling shades for all floor-to-ceiling glazing. The boundary between inside and outside is intentionally dissolved.
Audio
Integrated Sonos audio system throughout. Specified and detailed — not an afterthought, not a suggestion. This is what it means to design a complete environment.
Specified fixtures
Dornbracht. SMEG. Bocci. Jeld-Wen Siteline. Toto. Every fixture is named, specified, and ready to price. Hand this page to a contractor on Monday.
"Nothing is more sustainable than beauty — because what is truly valued is preserved, maintained, and kept."

A 50-page architectural design document. Photorealistic renderings. Construction-grade drawings. Material selection guide. Builder checklist. Limited to 250 editions globally. Each edition is individually numbered and watermarked.
Following payment you will receive a License Agreement to sign digitally. Your numbered edition PDF is delivered immediately upon signature.
This is a Design Intent Package. It is not a stamped, engineered, or permit-ready construction document. Consult a licensed architect or engineer in your jurisdiction for permit submission and structural adaptation. All sales are final. Personal use license only — no resale, redistribution, or transfer permitted.
No. CABN No. 01 is a Design Intent Package. It contains construction-grade drawings produced by an architect with formal training at one of North America's most respected residential design firms — but it is not stamped, engineered, or submitted for permit. You will need a local architect or engineer to adapt and stamp drawings for your jurisdiction. This document gives them an extraordinary head start — and saves you months of early-phase fees.
A complete design brief. Dimensioned floor plans, elevations, sections, interior elevations, a reflected ceiling plan, material selections, a door and window schedule, key details, and a builder checklist. Most contractors will tell you this is more resolved than what they typically receive from early-phase architectural engagements costing many times this price.
Because scarcity is part of the design. CABN No. 01 is a first edition. When 250 editions are placed, it closes permanently. Future models will be released as separate numbered editions. Your edition number is embedded in the document and belongs only to you.
The document is fixed as designed. Modifications for site-specific adaptation — orientation, foundation type, local code compliance — are the responsibility of your local architect or engineer working from this document. The design is intentionally resolved. That specificity is the product.
If you own rural land and have considered building on it but found the process expensive, inaccessible, or aesthetically uninspiring — yes. This document was made for exactly that person. It is the starting point that has not existed until now.
Immediately, digitally, as a high-resolution numbered PDF. Following payment you will receive a License Agreement to sign electronically. Upon signature, your edition is delivered to your email. No waiting. No shipping. The document is yours within minutes.
Design intent → feasibility confirmation → early pricing with a builder → local architect or engineer adaptation → permit-ready documents → construction. This package is your first step. Everything that follows is clearer, faster, and less expensive because of it.
