A while back we posted some sketch models that were part of the design process underway at D’arcy Jones Design . Since we have released both the Ranger and Cowboy it would only be natural to show the logical conclusion of these designs from the designer’s point of view. D’arcy has posted some really nice images of the finished concept models and elevations for both the Ranger and the Cowboy. These lovely models give you a real sense of the attention to detail that went into the development of these perfectly proportioned spaces. Looking at these makes me wonder if we shouldn’t be offering these models as a collection themselves.

Winter is a great time to spend at the cabin. Everything looks different under a heavy layer of snow and the opportunities for recreation are endless. However it’s tempting to hibernate inside especially with a good fire and book on the go. Be warned though. You will not escape the ravages of cabin fever. No matter how perfect your cabin is in terms of design it too will host this easily treatable disease, especially in winter. Fortunately cabin fever can be treated quickly by getting outside and building a snow fort.

Most buildings work pretty well. They keep you dry and warm, but that’s where it stops. The spaces we inhabit on a day to day basis are primarily functional, boring and utilitarian. They don’t even try to make your life better, and that sucks.

Do the people who design this stuff care about what they are creating?

Great design stands out. It makes your life better. It makes you better at what you do. In short, great design makes you happy.

Form & Forest is in the process of designing a line of prefab cabin kits . It is our intention to create beautiful, livable spaces. More than this, we intend to create spaces that enhance your well being. Spaces that help you find a little happiness.

You may think the Form & Forest prefab cabin kits are beautiful. You may even find that they make you happier. If you do, that’s because they are designed for happiness.

Sign up for our email list , because on February 19, 2009 we are releasing our cabin plans in the wild. You don’t want to miss it.
