    PAN-cabins is rental cabins placed on Gjesåsen at Åsnes in the district of Hedmark. The cabins is developed around the experience of living up in the trees at Finnskogen (Finnish-forests). The cabins are lifted up from the forest floor with the use of a slender steel structure. Each cabin is small with about 40sqm and in total six sleeping beds, bath, kitchen and a living room with a fireplace. The small space gives the atmosphere of living intimate together in a tent, but with the comfortable qualities of a hotel. The PAN-cabins has found its design-inspiration from the Finnish forest culture and the powerful atmosphere at Finnskogen.

      bath

      I wonder how the plumbing works. I guess that’s what the vertical pipes are for, but you’d think that in a cold climate freezing would be a problem.

    I don’t get why the stairs could not be closer or literally under it. Also given the likely expense you would think you would pop for an elevator but then again maybe that is just me since it is increasingly my nemesis.

      Worse. Still air is a great insulator. Moving air is how we draw away heat, like a heatsink. The ground is a mostly constant temperature that helps to keep your house cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.

        Still air trapped in tiny pockets is a great insulator – in fact that’s what makes all varieties of insulation effective. Heat transfer via conduction is minimized because of the low density of air (most of the heat is conducted via the solid material that holds the pockets), and heat transfer via convection is minimized because of the small size of the air pockets. Just plain air is not a very good insulator because free-flowing air allows heat transfer via convection (even when the wind is not blowing).

        Incidentally, those tiny air pockets don’t have to be very large to allow significant convection within themselves. Bubblewrap makes terrible insulation.

    Imagine getting groceries up there every week.

    Redoing the interior or bought something to big for those stores, need a crane.

    Baby with a stroller or wheelchair? Nope.

      Imagine getting groceries up there every week.

      I get the bit about the wheelchair, its definitely not accessible. But you can fold a stroller - not that this is the kinda cabin you’d take your baby to, or you could just leave it in the drunk.

      Imagine getting groceries up there every week.

      But this bit right here I really don’t get? What’s the problem with carrying some groceries up a flight of stairs?

        I may be biased because my groceries are for a full household and i already find grocery stores to be one of the most exhausting places to go trough.

        Actually i am biased twice, my grandma had circular stairs like this and they were an incredible safety hazard.

        The stroller we have right now can fold and on normal stairs they would be fine but it be a 2 person job on these ones to take the corners. That means leaving the baby alone on either end (depending on household)

        For a short vacation this might be fine but imagining to live here it would become such a pain. If some people are happy to live here, more power to them.

          I lived in a place where you’d have to walk up about that many stairs to enter. They were zig-zag back and forth, not circular, but it honestly wasn’t difficult to get used to it. Groceries were a one person affair, so I’d be able to get a full week’s worth in a single bike trip and haul it up without thinking about it. The view was worth it. The end of living there, and the subsequent effort to get the couches and washer/dryer out because the landlord was giving them to me, was a pain in the tuchus though.
