Cabin at the back of artist Bruce Goold's house from Design*Sponge Sneak Peek
High in the Adirondacks, Bruce Weber and Nan Bush found the ultimate retreat: Camp Longwood, a century-old great camp full of history and twiggy furniture that for 30 years has been the setting for an ongoing saga of joy, inspiration, and friendship.

Mylla is a small 84 square meter (940 square foot) cabin located in a towering pine forest outside of Oslo. Designed as a retreat for a geologist and his family, the building sits firmly on a hilltop and is formed by the forces of the landscape around it. Though planning regulations required a...

Remember to fall back today 🕐. Then go find a place where it is easy to lose track of the time altogether. Photo by @dudelum. #thecabinchronicles
This post is sponsored by Lowe’s. Friday, Chris and I spent the day up at the cabin working on the kitchen and the loft. It was the first time in months that we were there working with no contractors present. It was rejuvenating and motivating and the fact that we’re seeing so much progress is making […]
Beginning in the mid-1960s, Nauman exploited the ubiquity of neon signage to produce “art that would kind of disappear, an art that was supposed to not quite look like art.” He created luminous wordplays that alluded to tensions both individual and social, but which challenged viewers to find their own resonance. In Malice(1980), the foreboding noun is illuminated in red neon tubes, obscured behind its inverted spelling in green. The jumbled letters may suggest malice that has gone unnoticed, or....
I am linking my post to Oh, the PLACES I've Been. The Bavinger House by Bruce Goff takes 'bringing the outside in' to a new level...and it was built in the 1950's. I hope that you enjoy it. Thank you to "The Tablescaper" for hosting this delightful meme. Daddy was a new member of the faculty in the Oklahoma University School of Architecture in 1950. The head of the architecture department was Bruce Goff, Frank Lloyd Wright's famous protege. Goff designed The Bavinger House, built outside of Norman, Oklahoma. The house was physically built, mostly on the weekends, by Goff, Bavinger, and a number of faculty and students from the university, including my daddy, from 1950, to 1955. I remember weekends spent driving out to the house to take lunch to daddy and to see the project in process. Gene and Nancy Bavinger were family friends. The Bavinger's older son, Bill, was a year younger than I. Bill was one of my sister's best friends, and we spent many great times at the Bavinger House as children and teenagers. The house is now recognized as one of the fifteen most important architectural designs in the United States. For a time, it was opened to the public for visits by Bob Bavinger, Nancy and Gene's younger son. I stopped by to revisit some old memories, and I couldn't resist taking some photos. I only had my iPhone, so I hope that the images translate adequately. I thought that you might enjoy a short tour. The view as one approaches the house is pretty amazing. The roof line starts at ground level and spirals to a peak. It always made me think of a stone tower surrounded by a sweeping sail. The main entrance is to the right of the lowest roof level and down some steps. The materials are mostly native stones and melted down 'junk glass.' It always reminded me of the green glass in old Coke bottles. I can still picture my daddy and others carrying those stones and glass pieces and placing them to create this incredible structure. After descending the entry steps, the first thing one discovers is this stunningly beautiful patio area. Can you see the suspension bridge laid through the trees in the upper left of the picture? The suspension bridge is accessed from within an upper level of the home. As children we used to scamper across the bridge, which hangs above a deep ravine, to visit the Wilson House, on the other side. The bridge is actually quite narrow, and I don't think that I would venture out on it now. Can you see the top of the giant bronze pot just to the right of the patio trees? It's an outdoor fireplace, found on a lower level of the patio. The table and chairs are original to the home, as are the sculptures. This view looks back toward the front door. This interior wall is built below ground. Remember the beginning of the roof, almost at ground level? That's the location of this area. The junk glass is beautiful as it reflects the sunlight. There used to be a profusion of gorgeous orchids growing out of the walls. Bob Bavinger hopes to replant them at some point. Pretty amazing, right? The Bavinger House was heated with these stoves; remember that the house was built in the countryside, and there was a minimum of utility service available in 1950. Behind the stove, notice the recessed area beyond the rock. There used to be a 'creek' that ran through the house. It was dammed up at some point. The large suspended 'saucer' that you see is the living room. Above the living room, you can see a bit of another 'saucer' that was the Bavinger's master bedroom. The drapery panels that you can observe could be drawn for privacy. The large round tubular structure that you see is a closet for the master bedroom. It's an interesting concept. Inside the tube, the hanging apparatus is actually a 'lazy susan.' The closet rack rotates, and provides quite a bit of storage. From the living room pod, one can see the Master Bedroom pod and above that Bill Bavinger's bedroom. Follow the stairs higher, and you would reach Gene Bavinger's studio. In later years, the studio became Bill's bedroom, to make room for younger brother, Bob. Gene built a new studio in another building on the property. The interior of the living room pod was in essence a 'sunken living room. The seating was a built-in part of the pod. Looking beyond the pod, you can see the huge round table that makes up the dining room. It has built in seating, and it also rotates. Originally the dining table had a glass top, but I really like the wood. Here's a close-up of the 'lazy susan' dining table. Can you see the giant 'shopping bag' sitting next to the stove? Nancy Bavinger was a clay artist, and she designed a variety of clay 'shopping bags.' They can be seen displayed throughout the home. A pair of Nancy's shopping bags, tucked in a niche. More of Nancy's bags, sitting adjacent to the kitchen, which is incredibly small by today's standards. More bags, and here you can catch a glimpse of the pond and another stove. The window at the top of the tower was Gene's studio and housed the exit to the suspension bridge. Quite a house!
On top of a mountain in Kvitfjell, Norway is a regular grid of 45 wooden columns. The columns lift a 144sqm cabin 1.5m above the ground, allowing native grasses that sheep and cows graze on to grow below. The columns are clad with skigard, a long and narrow, quarter cut tree log that is...
