cabinland continues to grow with the completion of the mossy, dream-like diamond cabin

creative duo jacob witzling and sara underwood present the latest body of work in their ongoing project cabinland, including their latest diamond cabin. the project comprises a collection of moss-covered, off-grid cabin dwellings in the middle of the forest. the design/build team has so far demonstrated their knack for creating tiny, unique woodland homes with a wanderlust-arousing truck cabin and an octagonal, fairytale-like dwelling. before the construction of the main house, cabinland sees the completion of three new jewel-like structures including the diamond cabin, a hot-tub, and a video series which documents the team’s entire design-build process.

as sara and jacob’s cabinland continues to grow, now with three new tiny woodland structures, the team develops a documentary-like video series. during the upcoming construction of the main house, the team will live in the newly built ‘diamond cabin,’ a radially planned, two story dwelling — its second level accessible by ladder — finished in timber shingles and a thick layer of moss.

in the meantime, the team keeps their clothes and things stored away in the new wardrobe cabin — its asymmetrical and dramatically pitched roof clad in the same lush moss. the property’s water filtration system is housed within a pump house, the third cabin designed in the same language and forested materials, expressing an inverted, steeply pitched roof. viewers can follow the continuing progress on the project through the video series ‘cabinland.’
