C3 Cabin

Published by Steph at 8:44 am under Small Homes

C3The C3 Cabin is designed by Vandeventer + Carlander Architects.  The cabin is has a footprint of 16 x 22 feet, with 352 square feet on the main floor and 128 square feet in the loft.

The C3 makes lovely use of light and is designed with doors opening on three sides to better connect it with the outside.  Both of these features help to make the space feel much larger than it actually is.  The main floor hosts the main living space, kitchen, and bath. The sleeping loft sits over the kitchen and bath area and has a view of the floor below.  Windows are also thoughtfully positioned throughout the house to promote cross ventilation.

The C3 has also been designed with low-cost, easy-maintenance external materials (fiber cement and metal panels) and also easy construction in mind.

Plans are available for sale for $850  Additional information can be found on Vandeventer + Carlander’s website.

    I’ve been in love with the C3 cabin since the first time I saw it. It’s very awesome and I could live in one no problem.

    Kim, glad you like it! I was really attracted to the design, too. And for an architectural firm, the plans are pretty reasonable.
