Off Grid Cabin

Off-grid cabin designed and project managed by Sam Ludgate Bloom, this was a fantastic project to be involved with. A mobile, trailer based cabin created using reclaimed elements alongside bespoke shell and interiors which were great to make and build.

“The cabin was to be a destination for the client and his family, 2 adults and 2 children, and was to live in the grounds of his childhood home. It meant that he and his family could get away from London, whilst working remotely, and keep an eye on his elderly parents.

The final location of the cabin was a field next to his parents house. It is on the site of a Bronze age settlement, which being protected by Historic England meant that a permanent building wasn't possible.” - Sam
