Container Cottage

Featuring: Norwegian farmer couple Ida Kristensen and Sindre Sjulstad and their container cottageThe Home: Last autumn the couple was contacted by entrepreneur and designer Ole Henrik Eftedal, another Larvik-man. He asked them if they wanted to test out his new container cottage design. Eftedal's goal with his design was to give people the opportunity to spend time in nature, far away from everything, in a house that would feel more like outside than inside. Because of the container's ability to be placed anywhere, the 14 square meters cottage with a double bedroom, living room, kitchen, and dining table was placed at the couple's favorite fishing spot next to the waterfall at Numedalslågen.The Style: The cottage is hidden between trees and elevated on pillars in the steep landscape. The murmur from the waterfall is creating a seducing sound in the background. Huge windows make almost no distinction between inside and outside.
