A Tiny Timber Cabin Touches Down on a Private Island in Norway

The clients are a young family with two children who bought a tiny island with a dilapidated house on the waterfront. The island, which is only accessible via boat, is part of an archipelago about an hour south of the Norwegian capital of Oslo. "It has become a very popular area for summerhouses over the last century, and it is full of buildings from the postwar period," says architect Line Solgaard.
