Designed in nature and eco friendly I’m happy to share with you the Tye River Cabin located in Skykomish, Washington. The architects, Olson Kundig, designed this cabin with large windows and glass doors for entertaining and inviting the outdoors in. I feel these features give the modern river cabin a more natural feel.
The cabin is compact yet cozy and fully equipped with a kitchen, living room with a fireplace, two bedrooms and a bathroom. I think this cabin in the woods would make a nice peaceful place to live, how about you? Enjoy the photos below and let us know what you think are about this cabin down by the river.

Last month I told you about a business man who built a community of tiny houses for the homeless in Texas.
Ever since then I’ve been noticing more projects and non-profits who are on a similar mission.
This story begins with a group of homeless people protesting in a parking lot in the city of Olympia.
They did so by camping out in the parking lot in 2007 when, later, police forced them out.
After this, local churches started offering space for the people to camp in since they had nowhere else to go.
Today- several years later- it is a self-governed village of 30 permanent tiny cabins for the group to live in.
