Might not be a better place to sit under a blanket and watch the slippery transition from autumn to winter than the deck of a renovated old schoolhouse with wide open views of a meadow fronting Vermont’s Green Mountains. Well, okay, maybe peeking out the window of a sauna with wide open views of a meadow fronting Vermont’s Green Mountains. Did we mention this place has wide open views of a meadow fronting Vermont’s Green Mountains?

Weekend Cabin isn’t necessarily about the weekend, or cabins. It’s about the longing for a sense of place, for shelter set in a landscape…for something that speaks to refuge and distance from the everyday. Nostalgic and wistful, it’s about how people create structure in ways to consider the earth and sky and their place in them. It’s not concerned with ownership or real estate, but what people build to fulfill their dreams of escape. The very time-shortened notion of “weekend” reminds that it’s a temporary respite.
