About Trekronaa Ti Kay Kanpay
Trekronaa se yon ti kay kanpay ki konstwi nan mitan pye pen nan Ogna, Nòvèj. Kabin nan repoze sou yon chasi asye ki sipòte pa twa pye an asye sou beton, konsa estrikti a sanble li ap flote e li touche tè a yon fason lejè. Yon chasi an bwa kouvri ak aksya, e yon rampe mennen nan antre a epi pote tiyo dlo ak fil elektrik yo. Nan yon espas 15 mèt kare, plan an gen ladan yon ti twalèt, yon kwizin, yon tab pou manje, yon ban ak kabann pou kat a senk moun. Konsepsyon an marye konfò ak yon kontak sere ak forè ki antoure kay la. Kay kanpay la ka deplase san l pa kite okenn mak dèyè.

- Tags
- treehouses, micro house, micro cabin, hut, tree hut, small living, compact living
- Production Technology
- The treehouses are built on a steel frame, with 3 steel legs on concrete, leaving them hardly interfering with nature.
- Design Challenge
- The hardest part of the design process was to fit a bathroom, kitchen, dining table, bench and beds for 4-5 people, and using the space in a most efficient way. Another challenge was the placement of electricity and water, with lays in the ramp. For the carpenter, one of the biggest challenges was all of the angles, especially on the bottom of the cabin.
- Research
- The architect and client had studied some similar treehouse-projects before starting on the Trekronaa. Still, this project would be inspired by its own concept, looking to fulfill the needs visitors would have or apprectiate on a visit like this. The pinecone was an early object that inspired the architect, in addition to the urge of designing playful childhood treehouses.
- Inspiration
- The pine cone was part of the inspiration for me as the architect. Also I wanted to build on my childhood dream of carpentry wooden cabins in the woods. I wanted to take it a step further - namely mixing comfort with nostalgia and closeness to nature.
- Project Duration
- The project started with a site visit in November 2020, and was completed dec 2021. It is situated in Ogna, Norway.
- Operation Flow
- The cabin can be moved without leaving a footprint. It is built with a wooden frame on top of a steel frame, and cladded with accoya. The steel legs make it look like it floats in the air. A ramp leads to the cabin entrance, which feels safe for visitors compared to other possible ways to enter the cabin. Staying in the cabin can be compared to a hotel experience, the difference is the direct contact to the forest and the surrounding nature.
