We hope you enjoyed the tiny eco home, designed by Johnstone Callaghan Architects. It’s a true masterpiece of sustainable living and a harmonious blend with nature. For more of the latest and greatest in architecture, interior design and house tours, make sure to pre-order Issue No. 13 of our tri-annual hardcopy print publication - thelocalproject.com.au/publication/issue-13/ or our hardcover book ‘10’ - thelocalproject.com.au/product/10-celebrating-10-issues-of-the-local-project/
The contrast of the lighter materials vs the rugged darker materials is so well done, it makes the transition from the outside into the house very noteworthy. Another lovely local project! ♥
Among the most magical of all houses you've presented here. So intensely personal and private, it almost "feels" like crawling into your mind for a good, long rest. Big and splashing isn't everything, certainly not to me. Sublime.......
Congratulations on another wonderful upload. This page continues to unfold in a storytelling, conversation-creating, and home-inspiration-making manner that is truly great to engage with in this era.
Watching the Local Project is my daily mantra. I feels so calm and relaxed, one with the universe after watching the latest beautifully created episode...floating away blissfully.
Absolutely stunning. And on such a small footprint. The use of materials and reference to the smell of the place. This cabin will age beautifully. For me i would visit and never leave! Wgat more could you want? Thank you for bringing this to the channel.
A lovely take on the cabin in the woods - i like how views were framed by large windows and how mechanical and rustic those shutters looked. I also like that all-wood kitchen - has some Japanese vibes to it. I only wished that the house sat high enough to get more of those spectacular views of the bay - it's truly magical and pristine (imagine being only 1 of 4 houses to have that bay to yourself?). But, i guess the topography didn't allow it but a nice roof deck with those views makes up for it.
Beautifully made and great to feature a small project! Still, it’s questionable how can it be ‘eco’ when there’s so much unnecessary embodied carbon (the toilet in a concrete bunker and so much is steel)!
They seem to prioritize the design and views over bird safety. Actions speak louder than words, and in this case, it appears the design values aesthetics more than the well-being of the local wildlife.
they have shutters on those windows. When they don't use that cabin, they will close them. and why would birds strike them any more than any other windows in any other house? It's not like they have these huge through-house windows that confuse the birds.
@@sa34w they shutters on windows and they can simply clean windows if there is a need. Not like you need to demolish the house if a bird poops on it. With steel and treated wood, this house would last far longer than a typical suburban home.
is this home designed to be lifeless? - its not very different from that prison in Greenland, I believe a child would suffer mentally in a place like this, also there is no identity of the individual who resides in the home - all I see is that you can create something a machine is only limited to create
It's not a home, they don't live there, it's a holiday cabin/hut. It's perfectly designed for its location - a NZ national park. It's meant to be minimal like the basic DOC huts we have that are a treasured part of kiwi culture, just with more luxury materials. The focus is on being outside and the landscape, not on accommodation with all the frills. A prison is the last thing it is. It's beautiful.

Australian and New Zealand designers are world class🎉

Awesome, well thought out design that fits in perfectly into the conditions of the building site.
That architect is world class!

'ultra modern' is a misnomer. This project is timeless

The subdued lighting is EVERYTHING. Beautiful.
This is why architects are architects, my sort of house. Love it! 🏡

Very nice...I love the industrial flavour to the detailing of the external stair......I'll pinch that one.
Glad you like it!
That's a nice Kebin
The overall concept and functionality of the cabin was well planned...love the out door shower...well done and positioned.
Beautiful view! Love Abel Tasman. Thanks Local Project 😎
Thanks for watching!

Stunning.

Beautiful. Like a dream. Would love to hole up here
Amazing!!
Does the shower water fall to the ground below or is there drainage plumbing to a waste sewage system?
Relacion,con el presente,hermosa house¿"moderna,ahora?
que linda
How were they able to build it and transport all the materials? I always wonder how they do this in remote locations, without normal road access.
Ok how do you get services like sewage in remote areas, is it costy ?

It seems that food cannot be prepared or refrigerated - which is a shame but for short stays it is lovely

How do you buy a property in a national park?
If she says "kind of" one more time, I will lose my mind.
Aussie "up-talking" is actually more annoying.....
Agreed.
😄 try to focus on the essential and beautiful sides of the project, instead, your health, heart, mind and spirit will reward you for it 🤍💛🧡💖
@@janishani1 we don’t seem to be too in love with the project, otherwise we would have focused on that aspect.
@@geekless Then try the first one: the essential. That will do. Have and enjoy a pleasant life.

How do you prevent the birds from striking the windows?
It’s a vanity project ,not a realistic one. Within 3 years the house will need a rework as the birds would poop all over it
@@sa34w And how you can prevent that.

Is this property earthquake proof?
Second..
What does such a cabin cost? 300,000 without land?
Knowing the area and how isolated it is 300k would be a minimum.

They sound like Australians with a speech impediment.
Creepy
utterly pretentious
