STORHOGNA

2025

New intervention, and interior design.

This project is a site-built interior addition that is part of a new construction for a mountain cabin in

Storhogna in Vemdalen, Sweden. The interior addition is a kitchen for the mountain cabin.

Storhogna is a small village in Vemdalen where forest meets high mountains. The mountain cabin is lo-

cated high up in the woods, with views over the valley. The mountain cabin is designed for a large family

and is intended to be used as a mountain cabin all year round; hiking in the summer and alpine skiing and

cross-country skiing in the winter. The mountain cabin is a contemporary reinterpretation of a traditional

timbered mountain cabin and is intended to blend in the landscape and be a natural part of the cultural

heritage. Cross-laminated timber and wooden elements are throughout both exterior and interior, as an

acknowledgement to traditional wooden construction and craftsmanship. The exterior of the mountain

cabin has a more robust construction and finish to withstand extreme weather conditions. When it comes

to the interior, materiality, wood craftsmanship, fine details and meetings between materials are in focus.

The kitchen cabinets and island consists of natural oiled oak and Bjärlöv granite countertops.
