Perućac Cabin

A small timber cabin on the rocks above Lake Perućac, built from parts light enough to carry down a fishing path.

There is no road to the plot, only a path the local fishermen use. Everything had to be carried down by hand or brought across the lake by boat, so the cabin is designed as a kit: no piece is longer than three metres or heavier than two people can lift.

On the rock

The cabin stands on six steel posts drilled into the rock. Nothing was blasted and almost nothing was dug. When the lake rises in spring, the water passes underneath.

Inside

One room, a bed alcove and a wood stove. The large window faces the gorge, and the small one faces the path so you can see who is coming.
