Hidden in the rainforest landscape near the town of La Unión in southern Chile is a small cabin called 3×3 Retreat. Designed by Estudio Diagonal Architects , the small house was designed to create a sense of cohesion between the 'radical geometry' of the structure and the natural , organic essence of the site. The house was designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding forest landscape, allowing the true beauty of the site to shine through dramatically. The cabin aims to function as a comfortable, cozy and functional dwelling in the virgin forest, without disturbing or causing damage to the forest in the slightest. The Diagonal Architects Studio carefully selected the location. Thanks to this process of reflection, the cabin occupies a hillside on the bank of the Rimado River, so that the slope helps to enjoy a picturesque view of wild nature and the relaxing sound of running waters.
Front facade with red entrance door Entrance and terrace Nicolás Saieh The name has not been chosen at random either, but is the best way to describe this retreat (in Spanish, retreat) which, in fact, measures three by three meters. It also refers to the fact that the cabin has been divided into three sections. In addition, it rises 4.8 meters above the forest floor, as each of the two levels. Furthermore, the double height present in the living Cambodia Telegram Number Data area manages to materialize the idea of expanding the space in the vertical axis. With all this, the complex has a total of 15 square meters inside and 9 square meters on the terrace . Kitchen with access to the outside Nicolás Saieh Kitchen The first section is the terrace, which functions as an access point, with the same plan dimensions as the interior perimeter. The terrace is presented as a counterpoint to the rest of the complex and provides a scalar relationship between exterior and interior. It is the space where meetings with friends, barbecues and outdoor rest take place. Bedroom located on the second floor Nicolás Saieh Bedroom.
The second section is the first floor or the "day floor", which includes the kitchen, dining room and living room, with a double-height front window offering a stunning view of the rainforest and a stove to make more pleasant stay on rainy days. The third section is the second floor or the 'private floor' which houses the bedroom and bathroom . This section is only accessible via a staircase, in an attempt to save space and make the section more private. Abroad Exterior Nicolás Saieh Although it is true that the cabin has small dimensions, it is also true that its construction was low-cost, thanks to the use of common and inexpensive construction materials , such as standard pre-dimensional pine wood. Regarding construction techniques, local techniques were chosen, in an attempt to show their functionality and sustainability. Thus, it has become a peaceful and serene refuge that provides an oasis in a bold and dynamic forest.
