CONCEPT
Some may overlook Winnie the Pooh as just a lovable cartoon but there is
certainly deeper ethics that the world may need more now than perhaps ever.
This project celebrates some of the magic of Pooh - Taoist philosophy of
enjoying life with simplicity and harmony. This concept of living in concert
with the surrounding environment, with friends, a meteor for human nature.
SITE
The property - one hundred acres of woods with creek access in Shenandoah
County, VA - takes its name from Winnie the Pooh’s forest. Much like
A.A. Milne’s book, the project plays on the themes of imagination and
exploration. The site, located a little over an hour outside Washington D.C.,
is used as a weekend retreat that encourages interaction with the natural
enviroment. Hiking trails are scattered around - some lead to swimming
holes, others to trampolines or private hot tub retreats. The layout draws
inspiration from traditional summer camps, with a lodge that serves as
the communal cooking and gathering space - a place to start and end the
adventures of each day.
THE LODGE
The Lodge, centrally located, is the welcome center for all guests. Black
siding and a gable roof help the structure blend with the surrounding farm
vernacular of Shenandoah County. A full height glass wall greets all as they
enter the Lodge and provides views of the communal courtyard, where a
firepit, dining, and lounge area encourages gathering throughout the day.
THE CABINS
Flanking the Lodge are four Cabins - one for each of the three children and
one for the parents. Each Cabin is 240 sq.ft. and contains a living area with a
wood-burning stove to stoke the imagination, a reading nook to get lost in a
good book, a sleeping loft with an operable skylight for stargazing at night,
a hot tub to help recover from the day’s adventures, a full bathroom, and a
front porch with adirondack chairs for informal interactions. The Cabins take
inspiration from canvas wall tents, traditionally seen at summer camps, with
a cantilevered roof forming the front porch.
