Shomali, an Iranian architectural studio, has designed a cabin named “Kujdane,” nestled in the forests of northeastern Iran. Created by Yaser Rashid Shomali and Yasin Rashid Shomali, this project reflects a modern reinterpretation of the traditional “A” frame cabin. The use of wooden materials harmonizes with the cabin’s cool-toned interior elements, while the tall glass facade mirrors the cabin’s curved silhouette, connecting the structure with its natural surroundings.
The Kujdane cabin features a central glass box that extends vertically through the core of the space. This distinctive architectural element creates a direct visual connection between the sky and the ground, allowing occupants to experience the natural ambiance of rain and snow as it flows indoors. At the base of this vertical core lies a small reservoir, designed to collect rainwater and snow runoff. This innovative design not only introduces dynamic visual interest inside the cabin but also provides a natural cooling effect through the water pool.
