The site carries a clear memory. A previous cabin once stood here, before fire reduced it to a stone plinth. Mimosa Architects approach the project by accepting that condition rather than replacing it. The remaining base becomes the starting point for the new structure, anchoring it physically above the river while setting a measured distance […] More
