8 Scandinavian Cabins That Master the Art of Minimalism

Norwegian architect Erling Berg designed the 1,560-square foot Kvitfjell Cabin high in the Kvitfjell Mountains for a family of passionate skiiers. The design brief called for a relatively compact build. "A big goal for this project was to reduce the size of the cabin’s footprint as much as possible to keep the construction costs down, while meeting programmatic needs for four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sauna, and a spacious, open living and dining room connected to a kitchen," Berg says.
