The prefabbed Cabin Y by @dmva_architects in Belgium was designed to be easily transportable with a flatbed trailer, with a related goal to be as light as possible. The construction system consists of ten wooden frames that are connected by stainless steel tension cables in an X-shape, whereby the tensile and compressive forces are neutralized when lifting with a crane. Between the sandwich panels there is thermal insulation of hemp fiber. The exterior cladding is burnt larch and inside they used oiled white pine. Burning wood is a natural way to make wood sustainable without using chemicals.
The unit is equipped with a toilet, a shower and sleeping for two. Solar panels on the roof provide renewable energy. The front facade is entirely in glass with a steel frame as pivoting door.
