Rusafova-Markulis architects designed a house titled Cabin House on a wooded suburban lot in Asheville, NC, USA. Completed in 2020, the retreat has a dark facade to help camouflage it within the forest, which the owner specifies will grow closer to the house in time. The design references traditional cabin interiors with stripped-back touches including exposed wooden frames, rough-sawn pine plywood ceilings, and warm pine floors.
