FORESTER'S LODGE
Annotation
In seclusion from the cities lies the forester's small kingdom. It is open to those who share a similar interest and love for nature; for others, it remains hidden. Forest life, though it demands discomfort and hard work, offers in return many spiritual and moral values that are worth the effort. In terms of the aesthetics and function of the structure, the forest lodge strives to harmonize with the surrounding nature and blend into it. The weathered, irregular wooden facade enhances the feeling that it has always belonged in the forest. It is not overly polished; rather, it acknowledges the passage of time and the fact that nature is slowly reclaiming it. The lodge aims to be comfortable for its inhabitant, but without excessive luxury.
