design inspiration

wall in multiple use.
‘Woodpile’ Cabin: Log-Lined Fire Pit = Four-Season Shelter
The concept itself is very cool – or rather, hot … then warm … then cold? A metal frame wraps all four sides of the structure, with slots to fit felled lumber to be used as fuel for a central fireplace. An open void in the top lets out excess smoke, as do the natural openings between pieces of wood tucked into the walls.



 As the winter wanes, so does the supply of burnable logs – the walls slowly open up and let in more light, reducing the protection needed in otherwise cold Canadian climates.

 wall  makes the boundary but that boundary has no limit when logs are all used or when it's not in use.
