When I posted the pictures of the Tumble Weed homes recently I’m not sure everyone got what I was going for. A few comments I got people mentioned they’d rather have an RV but thats not exactly what those homes are intended for (even though some of the Tumble Weed homes are portable).
I just like the idea of a simple small cabin that you could use as a place to go to work, think, or just to be in silence. Something with a few amenities so that you can extend the period it is occupied but nothing like even a small RV or camper. Maybe this little cabin could be in your backyard, or maybe in a secluded spot of a wooded area. I found out a “Chalet”(as pictured below) is more what I am talking about.
-
- A wooden dwelling with a sloping roof and widely overhanging eaves, common in Switzerland and other Alpine regions.
- A cottage or lodge built in this style.
- The hut of a herder in the Swiss Alps.
The second definition defines it a little more the way I was thinking. A hut. Heres a few more pictures to get more of the idea across.
This is a cabin George Bernard Shaw used exclusively for writing after 1906. A great place for him to get away and create out of nothing. Nicely located underneath the trees for shade.
A designer by the name of Studiomama created this Beach Chalet. I’d go for something like this.
This is the inside.
Just a dude with a blog that probably shouldn't have one.
