Architecture
Built on the foundation of an old wooden cottage, this tiny wooden gazebo in Prague, the Czech Republic, features Shou Sugi Ban exterior
Named Garden Pavilion, the 20sqm tiny retreat serves as a refuge right in the middle of owner's garden
The owners wanted the interior space to seamlessly connect with the surrounding garden
BYRÓ architekti team came up with a hinged frosted glass wall
This front facade can be lifted up to open the cabin to the outside
This way, the two-story cabin transforms into a gazebo, bringing in the surrounding views
The cabin is designed primarily as a seasonal indoor space with library and wine-cooling cellar
It also has sleeping accommodations for emergency sleepovers
There is one photovoltaic panel on the roof for solar lights
