16′ x 48′, 2 bedroom + 1 bath + screened porch
768 square feet + 216 square feet screened porch
By combining the precision of a SIPs envelope with the versatility of an insulated crawlspace, we’ve created a cabin that adapts to your land rather than forcing the land to adapt to the cabin. This design provides a dedicated "service zone" for your home’s vitals while maintaining the airtight integrity of a modern masterpiece.
We utilize 8" SIPs foundation walls system to create a "conditioned" crawlspace. Unlike a vented, dark, damp crawlspace of the past, this is a clean, dry, and insulated environment. It protects your mechanical systems from the elements and provides a buffer of tempered air beneath your living space.
The living level is built with a conventional wood-framed floor system. This framing method is detailed with modern air-sealing and high-performance construction techniques. The system allows for effortless routing of plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems. If you ever want to renovate or upgrade your tech 20 years from now, you (and your wallet) will thank us for the easy access.
Above the floor, we wrap the structure in 6" SIPs above-grade walls. By maintaining a monolithic panel system for the walls, we create a "tight" thermal envelope. There are no drafts where the floor meets the wall—just a seamless transition that keeps your interior environment stable and silent.
The design is capped with a 12" SIPs roof system, allowing for vaulted, open-concept interiors without the "clutter" of traditional trusses. It turns the upper reaches of your cabin into a beautiful, vaulted space that holds its temperature regardless of the weather outside.
