Designed by Gnocchi+Danesi architects, this prefab mountain retreat is sleek and minimal, with expansive ceiling height and echoes of a traditional alpine shelter.

The 258 square foot design is compact and can be site-delivered by helicopter, allowing it to be placed in the most remote of locations. With layouts starting at $40,000, it’s an affordable modern option for people seeking a natural retreat.
