budapest-based creative architectural and design studio hello wood presents its latest iteration in the ‘tiny house movement’. dubbed kabinka, this simple and modern small-batch cabin is an attractive alternative to those who are looking to build a weekend home or an extra workstation. designed and manufactured in hungary, the cabin takes cues from local rural architectural heritage.

‘the tiny house movement, which bursted into hungary a few years ago, unites those who favor a more conscious way of living and building,’ comments hello wood. ‘there is a growing number of people enamored with holiday homes and unique houses close to nature, who are looking for an intimate place to disappear to when on vacation and hello wood’s newest, reasonably priced, charming cabin, kabinka, is sure to resonate with them. it can be used as a great weekend home or a private work space, but it is also a perfect option for companies in need of a community space or meeting room.’

kabinka is available in four different sizes — from 12 to 20 square meters. inside, users can fit a tea kitchen, bathroom, couch and stove. with sustainability in mind, the cabin has been built applying a low-energy consumption and environmental focus, resulting in a structure that is greener than one built with non-renewable materials and conventional technologies.

hello wood’s next step with kabinka is transforming it into a flat pack kit so customers can assemble it from the prefabricated elements. this is possible thanks to the use of industrial wall panels in the design settings. and although the do-it-yourself approach is not very common in hungary’s tiny house movement, hello wood’s extensive educational portfolio will be of great help for anyone to unearth long-forgotten talents and skills.
