Built on a 27 acre mountaintop location only accessible by off-road vehicles, I really like the design of this little off the grid retreat shack Broadhurst and friends built. Clearly I am not alone as it has been featured in Architectural Record magazine, but it is a compelling example of what can be done with minimal materials and a little creativity. Necessitated by the location, it is built for off grid living, with oil lamps for light and a woodstove for heat and hot water. One especially nice feature is the windowed garage door ad a front wall. Although I admire the purity of the design, the practical side of me would likely do things somewhat differently. First off, I would undoubtedly make it somewhat larger, with more space for food storage and a composting toilette. Also have been stuck in the rain while camping, the interior needs to be large enough to accommodate chairs and a table inside. Personally I would add some larger windows side and back, and somewhat more importantly, build a screen wall behind the garage door wall to keep the bugs out. The above is not meant as criticism, merely how I would modify an already good design to suit my needs temperament and climate. |
