1,130 square feet
OFIS Arhitekti
Stara Fuzina, Slovenia

This stylish mountain cabin was built in a small village inside Slovenia's Triglav National Park. It is constructed from beautiful local materials and is oriented for passive heating and cooling, although it also boasts a central fireplace that warms both levels. Black foil was placed inside the walls to absorb heat and direct it toward the inside.

The chic cabin features a modern kitchen and a wood-paneled sauna.
