If you like the idea of having a cottage, but not the typical rugged log houses that bring 'Little House on the Prairie' to mind, then the Dalene Cabin is just for you. Refined instead of rustic, it embodies the feel of a country retreat.
Designed by Tommie Wilhelmsen, the Dalene Cabin is located at Østhusvik on the island Rennesøy, Norway. Its mix of angular and curved elements seem to mimic its water and land surroundings. I particularly like the breezy open-space concept within.
