Monolithic cabins of charred eucalyptus wood are scattered among one of Patagonia´s most unique Arrayanes forest.
This boutique-scale holiday complex stands as the vision of its lead architects María Ayelén Olivieri Martinez and Juan Segundo Diaz Dopazo. The team took on the challenge of crafting an oasis retreat amidst a native forest of Coihues and Arrayanes in Villa la Angostura. With its steep slopes, panoramic vistas, and the embrace of Lake Correntoso, the location set the stage for a project. Thus, a collection of timber-clad ‘landscape cabins,’ is born, inviting tourists into an intimate communion with the forested surroundings.
The cabins find their niche within the forest’s vacant spaces, strategically avoiding arboreal vegetation. This strategic placement fulfills the architects’ primary objective: to create an architectural entity that coexists harmoniously with the forest ecosystem, refraining from any intrusive deforestation. The cabins unveil an ingenious spatiality, luring inhabitants to experience the enchantment of melting boundaries between interior and forest, all within a compact footprint.
