Just how much exercise you lot beloved the audio of staying at a cosy mount cabin at this fourth dimension of year?! Last summer, James Gardiner as well as I went to photograph the virtually magical Norwegian hide-away for my book: The Scandinavian Home. Located nigh Lillehammer (scene of the 1994 wintertime Olympics), the delightful timber cabin belongs to Marianne as well as Jon as well as their 2 children who beloved to ski inwards the wintertime as well as hike or merely hang out as well as taste the nature inwards the summer. It's difficult to imagine that when the pair offset acquired the belongings it was completely run downwards as well as off the grid. "For the offset 5 years, nosotros had to convey our ain H2O as well as ski downwards from the nearest road," Marianne confided. The pair kept the master copy edifice as well as created a magnificent extension, inspired past times a traditional Norwegian seter. Today it's a beautifully cosy, magical mount hide-away as well as the perfect spot to sit down as well as recover from a twenty-four hours on the cross-country ski tracks or merely acquire away from it all.
Many of the items inwards the habitation - including the side tabular array past times the window, knitted chair cover, artwork, lamps, coat as well as towel hooks and cushion covers - select been handmade past times Marianne who runs Slow Design Studio. The mid-century armchairs were a flea marketplace detect (source similar here).
The kitchen was designed past times Marianne as well as made past times a local carpenter using erstwhile barn wood. If you lot await closely you'll encounter the leather pulls - which select been made from erstwhile reindeer reigns. The backsplash is made from copper which has been treated alongside acid to give it an aged look.
A huge sliding barn door tin sack live on opened upwards to allow the warmth of the Sun to penetrate the dining surface area - or shut to buffet the air current as well as snowfall storms as well as to a greater extent than oftentimes than non proceed the mutual frigidness at bay. Simple pino tabular array as well as benches render an ideal spot when the Sun comes out.

I was then mesmerised past times the surface area that 6 months later the photograph shoot, I returned alongside my family. Marianne as well as her menage unit of measurement were sort plenty to invite us to remain inwards the cabin. The vista was as stunning inwards wintertime time, when temperatures tin sack plummet to minus 25 degrees celsius (minus xiii Fahrenheit) brrrrrrr! The calorie-free was crystal clear as well as nosotros spent our days on the nearby ski slopes, intermittently diving into mount cabins to warm-up over a hot chocolate (the girls), as well as glögg (the human being as well as I!). H5N1 sauna dorsum at the cabin worked wonders to warm the cockles as well as we'd pass the evenings on the long spot looking out over the panoramic views of the undulating snow-covered landscape. As the Sun went downwards the valley was dotted alongside the glimmer of caput torches as cross province skiers made their agency home. It's a site I'll never forget! Here are a brace of snowy snaps I took during our stay....
The menage unit of measurement enlisted the assistance of Marianne's sister, architect Benedicte Sund-Mathisen of Suma Arkitektur to extend the cabin as well as exercise frameless windows.
The master copy timber cottage dates dorsum to a greater extent than than l years. Poles at the side of the route assistance snowploughs locate the route later a especially heavy dump of snow! I select to acknowledge nosotros got stuck to a greater extent than than ane time (even though our machine has specially adapted wintertime tires!) - as well as I learned a few novel Swedish swear words inwards the process!!
Although the days were short, when the Sun shone the calorie-free was crystal clear as well as the girls loved sledging on the gradient inwards front end of the cabin.
Aaaaaah, how I'd beloved to see this portion over again ane day.
