Welcome to Friday Cabins, a free weekly email roundup highlighting the latest cabin and architecture adjacent content from Field Mag, the digital publication of choice for lovers of good design and the great outdoors. Thanks for being here with us 🤝
This past week saw a rather exciting batch of “cabin” articles hit the net, once again proving there are endless design solutions to every architectural problem.
First up, we continue to explore the Etc aspect of Cabins Etc, the most trusted newsletter for cabin enthusiasts, with a closer look at the San Pedro Hot Springs in the Chilean Andes. Here we see a stunning natural landscape emphasized with complementary landscape design. No cost of entry, no website, no tourism board promotion. This is one locale yb very much dreams of visiting someday.
Backstepping into the Cabins lane, we head north to Quebec to catch a glimpse at a summer camp bunkhouse inspired by a child’s drawing. It’s as cool as it sounds—smash that image/link below for the full scoop. And lastly, at least for this humble ‘sletter, we keep our attention on the East Coast and visit Autocamp Cape Cod, a modern campground resort complete with Airstreams, safari tents, private micro cabins, and communal fire pits. *bookmarks for spring*
That’s all for now. Scroll on, click thru, and share with a friend, wontcha 🌤️
