Cabin Søgne

  • A multi-stemmed pine tree stands by the water's edge, its branches reaching out over the rocky shore and the still surface. Evening light catches the needles in a golden tone, while the bark shows a coarse, furrowed texture.
  • A weathered shell rests on the sand, its edges curled and frayed after long exposure to water and sun. The surface is rough and mottled, with grains of gravel scattered around it.
  • The worktop runs along the wall behind the open glass door, with shelves and cabinets in solid wood above. Daylight falls across the counter and the grain of the wood.
  • The kitchen island stands in solid wood at the centre of the room, with two rows of drawers beneath the worktop. The doors stand open toward the stone paving outside, and light falls in along the panelling behind.
  • A path of stone slabs set in grass leads to the cabin's glazed front between timber posts. The roof projects far beyond the facade, and a stone wall follows the sloping ground.
  • The cabin sits low between bare rock and pine forest, its glazed front opening toward the water. The roofline follows the granite outcrop, and the timber facade catches the low afternoon light.
  • Two kitchen islands with solid wood drawer fronts flank an opening looking out to trees and water. Routed grips are cut into the edges, and light from the opening falls across the floor.
  • Cutting boards of different shapes lean against the panelling, next to a stoneware jar holding a rolling pin and utensils. The panel boards behind run vertically, and the grain catches the light across the surface.
  • The open shelf above the counter holds jugs, cups and bowls, next to a cabinet front with routed grips and no visible hardware. Below, cutting boards, a coffee dripper and a kettle rest on the pale worktop.
  • The kitchen island stands with open shelving and cabinets in the panelling behind, drawers lined up in two rows beneath the worktop. Routed grips are cut into the edges, and the grain runs down along the fronts.
  • The kitchen island stands with drawers in solid wood and a worktop facing a large window. The drawer fronts have routed grips, and the grain follows the daylight from outside.
  • The kitchen island stands with solid wood drawer fronts and a dark stone worktop, facing large window openings. The grain runs vertically across the fronts, with routed grips and no visible handles.
  • The kitchen island stands with solid wood drawer fronts and routed grips, without visible handles. Open shelving and a long pendant light run along the panelled wall behind it.
  • Solid wood drawer fronts line up beneath an open shelving unit, with an oven set into the middle. Daylight from the large door opening falls along the grain of the panelling behind.
  • The oxidised steel fireplace stands beside the panelled wall, with the firebox set into the surface and a log store below. The surface shows uneven rust-toned patina from floor to ceiling.
  • The solid wood corner bench sits at a right angle before the tall window panes, cushions in green tones set against the forested view outside. The wooden base beneath the seat shows an even grain along its edge.
  • A solid wood bed panel sits between dark cabinet fronts, fitted with two black wall lamps. The grain in the panel runs horizontally across its width.
  • The vanity hangs beneath a panel that divides the room from the bed behind it. The white basin rests above two drawers with routed grips, no visible hardware.
  • The branch carries several young acorns among lobed leaves in dense green. Behind the foliage, grey stone rests out of focus.
  • The wardrobe fronts run floor to ceiling along the hallway, with narrow routed grips cut into the panels. The matte surface shifts tone in the light, from green to grey toward the dark door beyond.
