E-9 Trekking Cabin
Project Featured on Dec 23, 2018
As entrants in the Bee Breeders competition located on the E9 Trek on the Latvian coast, Signal was inspired by the geographic threshold that exists between land and sea and the transformational experience that trekkers can find on the trail. Following this liminal world, traversing a line of varied topography between forested cliffs and beaches, hikers are inspired by incremental transformation. Thinking of it as a walking meditation, the team was inspired to create a unique architectural expression that is bound by land and sea.
The hipped roof, sturdy wood-framed enclosures, and simple shapes are inspired by traditional structures. The design interprets these elements into an iconic, physical vocabulary that responds to the surrounding trees and windswept strand. The gable ends facing the sea and ridge are translucent, serving a dual purpose: they welcome light into the structure by day and emit light at night as a signal to others that someone is home.
Stretched up like a vertical lantern toward the sky, the cabin becomes a recognizable symbol for shelter, rest, warmth, and life at the edge of the sea.
