With only a tight space available, the flexibility of the design allowed it to be altered to fit, with bi-fold doors opening out to a basketball court, lawns and gardens.

When our clients decided to build a cabin for luxury guest accommodation at their home in Sydney, they had two key criteria: the cabin must blend with the heritage architecture of the area, and it needed to fit in a fairly narrow space.
