Cabin In The Woods 2.0 - An Architect's Amazing Vision

[@livingbig]

We hope you enjoy the tour of this amazing cabin! Rasa and I were lucky to spend a good few days here, filming and enjoying the surrounding area. The cabin was so beautiful that I don't think the camera left Rasa's hand the whole time though!

[@marinathomas7820]

😊 and Bryce, you loved all the black, dark and cozy in there. The way your face lights every time you enter a moody space 😂 Both are satisfied.

[@cmarie3913]

It’s so wonderful you both had the opportunity to stay in such a one of a kind tiny cabin 🤍 great tour!

[@carltongirl95]

Stunning house those view's are just picture perfect...love the ending Bryce in the bath lol...thankyou guy's for sharing this gorgeous house...what a great place to de-stress xo 💜🇦🇺

[@vickydawson6196]

Thanks for showing us this wee gem snug in the beautiful Punikaiki. I can picture myself here on a stormy day and how snug and cosy it would feel here with the fire going 🔥 🍃 oh and the rain on those wonderful big windows,love the triangles and think the flat aluminum?? Cladding? Not sure what you said it was called.i think it's genius for the no rust an the debre falls straight off. Would love to be able to contact Andrew an ask about the steel engineering side of the build?? As a west coaster myself I have seen many "batches"on the Coast Road over the year's and this by far is my favorite. 😍

[@TheBasementChannel]

As a builder that cabin is the exact opposite of simple. The more simple something looks the harder it is to construct. Impressive level of detail and finishing.

[@livingbig]

100% every part of this build had to be spot on.

[@Kimoto504]

Yep. "simple" exterior shape and maybe unadorned. That's where "simple" stops.

[@ClayMationNation]

And an incredible waste of vertical space.

[@thinking102]

@@ClayMationNation but the shape of the roof is designed to let rain fall straight down the troughs of the roof so they dont use guttering, and don’t have to clear out all leaves etc from all the trees also. Plus it’s stunning and holds in the two huge triangle windows as well as providing relaxing space to sleep extras, read etc

[@GeekyBoutiquey]

Our carpentry class just did a job site tour of a cross laminated timber build apartment building here in Seattle. They said they only had a handful of guys assembling the CLT panels and beams and they'd do a level a day! Their project was also pre-cut and drilled with a CNC machine. Just unbelievably efficient building assembly.

[@JJoy-bk8yr]

That is not merely a house - that is both sculpture and a feat of engineering. It is both poetry in wood and stone, and a monument. As you can see, I'm struggling to express how awesome this is!

[@paulsuprono7225]

So SURREAL ! 🤗

[@cicicamino7379]

Monument is a perfect descriptor for this place! It has a heavy sculptural quality to it, while still having a enveloping warmth to it.

[@levibates]

This is the most unique tiny house I've ever seen! Thank you LBTH for this unique episode! Love the exterioral cladding.

[@ClayMationNation]

Unique but an incredible waste of vertical square footage.

[@susanfudge1737]

Unique means one of a kind.

[@levibates]

@@susanfudge1737 really?

[@levibates]

😭

[@lisasantak3632]

Is this beautiful oasis just a family retreat or do they rent it out, just alittle confused with it so seldomly used...

[@FaveWasteOfTime]

one of the most beautiful small homes I have ever seen.

[@dyannacoleman7092]

Bryce, you're a hoot to give your final words from a bathtub! I can't stop laughing! I have to admit this is one unique cabin with exquisite views from all around! I've really enjoyed seeing this little cabin.

[@SarahMontana666]

I was thinking the same thing. Got quite the giggle out of me. 😂

[@Disillusioned-lg3tj]

I though t he would have a rum and coke in the bath too!

CRYING! 😂😂😂 Next time I expect water and bubbles 🫧🧼

[@paulacatibog2151]

So funny Bryce!

[@racquelcalinga5275]

Wow,wow, wow! I love the location of this beautiful and unique Tiny home. This is what I want sorrounded by Beauty of Nature. It's so Stunning! Thanks Bryce for sharing this inspiring Content. Keep safe 🙏❤️

[@lexiwood2365]

Absolutely stunning. My dream hideaway. I LOVE black. Bathroom is to die for.

[@TheSushmaHomeSellingTeam]

The architect's vision of a timeless woodland cabin is perfectly realized. 👏👏

[@nitanice]

possibly one of my favorite videos on this channel ever. What a gorgeous place.

[@mantarayal]

I rarely comment on KZbin, and have never commented on this channel, even though I've seen some really cool wee homes. But man. This place is GORGEOUS.

[@beaterose3759]

Wow, just wow!!! What a talented architect Mark is, his design is prizeworthy for sure!

[@gamtngirl3655]

This was absolutely stunning. Took my breath away. This is the one I want - except with more storage.

[@emmaafa4210]

Let's just say it all in synchronicity....WOOOOOWWWW!!! Such an excellent job and result, my highlight was hearing the family history and hearing from the brother architect Mark...Bryce, without you and Rasa we would not know of these architectural gems that exist in our own country...bless you both for bringing these amazing homes to show us and the world! And thank you Andrew for hosting us in your magnificent haven on the West Coast near those cool pancake rocks! Arohanui 💖

[@penguinwithwifi]

Gorgeous cabin. I love the cozy, in the woods vibe and simplicity, yet with a flush toilet. And it’s been so solidly built. I’d need a bit more kitchen but otherwise it’s perfection.

[@wakingtheworld]

It's a holiday let, so would you?

[@bkm2797]

Cassandra Scott, I would, you are out in the woods far away from any town, if you are planning more than a couple of days you need a refrigerator, I didn't see a vent, but I wasn't sure what was the stove. But all in all, certainly is lovely.

[@wakingtheworld]

@@bkm2797 I was thinking along the lines of staples we have such as pasta, flour, pulses, tinned goods, etc, that fill our food cupboards that wouldn't be needed on holiday but yes, agree, it's lovely. Wowsome in fact.

[@bkm2797]

Casandra Scott, that ran through my mind as well, but dry goods can be placed anywhere, altogether I agree it would be best to be located where you are cooking. Wish they would come back in a couple of years to see if they made any changes to the kitchen. Cheers

[@wakingtheworld]

@@bkm2797 There are many I'd like them to revisit a few years down the line... There's certainly no shortage of video material for Bryce & Rasa...

[@karengossett1475]

After all the years of watching your videos I never once thought about saying...this beautiful home was my favorite!!! Today I am saying this amazing home is my favorite!! Stunning 💞😘

[@januarysdaughter6664]

I'm not big on modern industrial, but this one might be one of my favorites! Wow! Someone move me to Western NZ! ❤

[@bridgetmuehlberger5141]

I’m gobsmacked! 😮 Been following you for years and this is definitely in my top 5! I love the symmetry, simplicity, color choices, the gorgeous light fixture, and THOSE VIEWS!! Wow. I can’t even imagine how wonderful it would be to stay there! How fortunate you were to showcase this one! ❤

[@livingbig]

I know right! We were really fortunate to get to stay there for a few days. I also got to explore some of the surrounding area. The west coast is paradise!

[@kkay3784]

Me, too. Maybe top 3.

[@eileen8304]

So Cool Bryce, the end of the episode, your final thoughts about this home, "In The Tub" So peaceful, relaxing, Love it! 😍This home is so Magical!! 💖

[@pearlhartney9]

What an absolutely stunning place!

[@janetclaireSays]

This is such a beautiful "cabin in the woods"! What a lucky family to have such a wonderful retreat to escape to!

[@patriciastaimee]

Beautiful...

[@kathleenjaeger706]

❤ love the site and how the house blends into the surroundings. looks like a very comfortable place to be 😊

[@bafis2025]

13:23 with that such house design, I believe visitors would love to stay indoor the whole time enjoying every peaceful of such architectural skills.

[@rebeccabarnes3324]

What an Incredibly beautiful cabin with stunning views. They designed and built a labor of love that the family can enjoy for many years to come. Thank you Bryce and Rasa For the visit !! Thank you to the Family that conceived such a cozy and relaxing Holiday home and gave us a peak inside !

[@cannavaras]

Wow that's a stunning house.😮 Wow. This is worth a double espresso! 😂 Cheers Bryce and Rasa, look forward to this one. 👍

[@livingbig]

Love it! Definitely worth a double. 😂 We had such an amazing time filming this place. The nearby hike that he mentions in this video is seriously one of the most beautiful walks I've ever been on. Stunning!

[@leridasanchez1336]

I had a 🫤 day but the enthusiasm of this nice guy makes it better! Thanks for your consistency ❤

[@livingbig]

Sorry to hear you didn’t have a great day, but I’m so glad we could brighten it up a bit for you!

[@mickeybowmeister1944]

These guys are living my dream, to retire on the West Coast of NZ settled into deep native bush miles from other neighbours. Architect is on game here, using cross laminated framing is not common in NZ but I can see the benefits, well done!

[@stephanieharless9120]

So, we all try to "bring nature indoors", have a hundred plants, or funky plant wallpaper in a bathroom etc. This place just has... Windows 🤯. That rainforest is INSANE!! 😍🌿

[@CloudZKJ]

What a dream it would be to have a place like this, very inspirational!

[@gildaolsen2888]

A "thinking-outside-of-the-box architectural design." Truly impressive!!! 💖

[@e-sportstv]

Wow, wow, wow this is so Amazing, Amazing, Amazing, Amaziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnngggggggg

[@e-sportstv]

Thank you Man How do we claim the prize?

[@ashleybuffa7971]

Even though I’m not a typical fan of black industrial type of designs, this is gorgeous. The basics in decor/color keeps you in awe of the jungle you’re surrounded by. Those views are breath taking.

[@buzzfunk]

It looks like a Bond villain hideout. Lol. Love it!

[@AmandaJYoungs]

That is one of the most beautifully designed "tiny" places I've ever seen. What a great holiday break that would make amongst nature like that and with those views...

[@Randomest_Stories]

❤ SIMPLY STUNNING.

[@Erika-gm2tf]

Gorgeous cabin in the middle of the primordial jungle. What a magical place to stay. I love the bathtub summary at the end.

[@johnhislop2993]

That rug really ties the room together.

[@natalijalitosh4489]

The place of dreams, the house of dreams 👍👏👏👏

[@sonialeal3786]

Every time I watch an episode of Living Big in a Tiny House, I am amazed at the creativity of people to build a unique place. Also, while watching each episode I always imagine where Bryce will make his final comment, and this time as soon as I saw the bathtub, I knew it!

[@dznutz217]

This is such an incredible build and location! Absolutely stunning and you can feel it through the screen! What a way to unplug, reconnect and get grounded!

[@sharonboyer8887]

I love this cabin! This is the very best small space I have ever seen!

[@d4mdcykey]

That location is so stunning and mindblowing it doesn't even look real, like something out of a CG film; and he lives in the center of it. Wow. The structure itself is incredibly well engineered, very impressive both aesthetically and pragmatically.

[@Sujowi]

It’s real...and it’s really that green and lush. You need to visit!

[@inflight8638]

Absolutely Amazing🕉️🌅

[@TamaraJoy7]

Wow, when money is plentiful, and you’re a super creative architect with a passion for detail and simplicity of design (even though we all know this was a major design challenge) you can create something truly extra-ordinary ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@elianevdb]

My absolute favorite of the entire channel!! So sleek and elegant!

[@PixelBaller]

Forget the (albeit amazing) house. I'd live in a tent in that location. Just stunning!

[@sarameitner6770]

Love the intricacies of this tribute to "involved simplicity" - what a loving legacy to the family. And Bryce - it's ALWAYS a delight to see you settled into the newest (seductive) bathtub.

[@rev_dude]

As an architecture student, stuff like this is what I dream of designing as a passion project, to get back to the initial joy of design and detail from the very beginning, but actually build it for real.

[@computerjantje]

very very beautiful design

[@terryrich7235]

Love it! All the fun windows, glass doors. The magnificent views which open up to the wonderful outdoor rainforest. A definite treasure.

[@IloveSituandbob]

What a magical oasis this gentleman created while paying homage to his family roots. He blended those ideas very well and it shows throughout the build. Love the atrium area at the center. So much natural lighting and views.

[@krissyturner88]

FINALLY!!! A dwelling that looks so different than the usual box!! xoxo

The design of the rooftop reminds me of our traditional Joglo house in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Beautiful cabin, so cozy and calm. Perfect for a retreat. Thanks for another awesome video, Bryce & Rasa.

[@lisasavas5805]

This one has that WOW factor!

[@kimdawcatgirl]

I am in awe! My mind is so flooded with beautiful imagery, I'm at a complete loss of words to describe how it affects me! I want to live there with my cats! Thanks Bryce and Rasa! Great job Andrew and Mark!

[@jeanetteshawredden5643]

Spectacular. 30cm thick walls = 11.8 inches. Concrete piles foindation. Design. Amazing.

[@janethansen9612]

Thanks for showing us a part of New Zealand I didn't know about before. Amazing result on a difficult site, but the views from the windows make it worthwhile.

[@donnaoz5502]

wow... and a breath of fresh air to hear Bryce 'excited' to see what's on the inside!

[@sharonjames1255]

Hello Bryce and Rasa! I believe this is the first tiny home I have every seen with enough room around the commode to sit without hitting something! This bathroom is almost perfect. I can't get in and out of a regular tub, so I would have to change to either a Handicapped Tub Shower Combo or just a Shower with a seat in it. But other than that, I love this bathroom! The whole place would be a great place for us to vacation or visit for the weekend - if the tub/shower deal was changed. The view with all those trees is kinda like where we live now. Kinda. We don't have that many trees surrounding us, but we can look out and see the woods and stuff, but we do have a cleared space for a yard and a garden area. Of course, for us to even visit a place like this or any other, it would have to be in the USA, as I don't travel out of the country. Love watching videos of other countries though. Love you guys! Good job.

[@rossipreissler4449]

oooohhhh!!! ha ha!!! Bryce in the bathtub!!! love it! 🙂 Always a treat!

[@iabelanger]

You are so funny in the bathtub at the end😅

[@janeysiegrist5061]

😂😂right? So cute

[@CherryAdora]

I love how they worked around the trees and the fact that they are building on top of limestone. It shows how careful they were to protect as much as possible the forest/vegetation instead of destroying everything just to accommodate a structure. Great architecture all in all. The skylights are amazing and the window in the bedroom is truly breathtaking. 👏👏👏

[@aroundtheworldfibers]

This 'tiny' cabin is absolutely stunning. I love the uniqueness and the simplicity of the design. At the same time it's not hard to see the challenges that went into this type of build even from this video. The views are out of this world; literally every window is a picture window. This cabin is more like a gorgeous sculpture - really beautiful!

[@philipmarchalquizar7741]

Probably the best tiny house in this channel.

[@jerrysimas2040]

I’m somehow reminded of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Falling Water in Pennsylvania - particularly in how the structure inhabits the natural setting so harmoniously. I also wonder what kind of birds and other wildlife would amble across those window views. Kudos to the architect!

[@joecola6487]

Best. Cabin. Ever . On this channel . Bravo.

[@weatherwitchandfelinefamiliars]

Simplistic yet not, that's an incredible feat of engineering 😮 And the view outside every window is beyond astounding. That light feature is incredibly unusual 😮 What a truly remarkable unique place ❤❤❤

[@grindwithsagar]

Every Saturday Morning (IST), I wake up expecting a new video on this Channel, and watch it on TV while having my breakfast. It is so inspiring to listen to stories, and to see the love people put into such cute, gorgeous, yet minimalistic homes. Hopefully, one day I'll get to live in one ❤️

[@jasmineb5697]

This is soooooo cute, love it and surround with nature beautifully designed. And the large window looking out come on who doesn’t love that. The view the views that Rasa has captured is breathtaking ❤️❤️This is on the list. Thanks Bryce and Rasa for sharing from the tub 😂

Now a dinosaur would have been fun to see 😀

[@feliciasampson8032]

This deceptively "simple" design captures the essence of blending the inner space with the spectacular outdoors. The focus is on nature, and the design beautifully complements the the surroundings. Window coverings, and excessive furnishings would add clutter. I love the "just bring what you need" elegance.

[@Zarike1]

The best cabin I've ever seen. It's definitely a dream...however didn't anyone else find it strange to see Bryce walking around with so much space above him?😂

[@NinaThoren]

I love these unique tiny houses and cabins with interesting shapes! Sadly a tiny house on wheels don't give as much to work with given the restriction on height and width, how cool would it be if you could move around with this cabin?

I work in a factory that mass produces apartments made from CLT, it's a very sturdy material to say the least

[@livingbig]

This was my first time seeing a project constructed using CLT. I'm really impressed!

[@Marticus518]

@@livingbig That's interesting, I figured it'd be more common. I work as an engineer in the factory and draw the apartments in cad, send the files to a manufacturer who pre-cuts all the pieces and send them back for assembly. We use a traverse to lift everything into place, screw it together and down the line the shell goes. This project looked like a tiny home version of what happens at work, very fun to watch! Love the content from your channel overall, much love from a random dude in Sweden :)
