This moving wall house designed by Olson Kundig Architects is a great escape offering privacy when you need it, and openness when you want it. We love the idea of this wood cabin design on San Juan Island in Washington State; a compact cottage with the most unusual feature – timber walls that fold up for privacy, and fold down to reveal a glass wall house with breathtaking views in every direction of the surrounding countryside. Inside, a fireplace feature at the center of the home is an instant hotspot in this small but sweet book nook – a cozy place to escape busy city life with only your thoughts and your favorite reading.
