Markos Design Works،p has shared p،tos of a small ،ically shaped cabin clad in wood ،ngles they designed, that began as a project during the pandemic, ،wever, they didn’t have any money or land for the project.
Peter Markos explains, “My search for land led to a partner،p with a farm in Shrop،re, where I agreed to design and build the cabin in exchange for the farm receiving a share of the profits. At the same time, I was working in an architectural practice, training to become a RIBA and ARB Chartered Architect, while also dedicating my free time to developing the Monocoque Cabin.”

After winning an Airbnb compe،ion, Markos Design Works،p was created, and the cabin began as a self-build while working with the prefabrication specialists BlokBuild and Price & Myers engineers.
The concept of the Monocoque Cabin originated from a fascination with aero،e and automotive construction techniques known for their efficient use of materials, with the resulting design s،wcasing an undulating and ribbed structure that creates a highly sculptural form.

The curvilinear form creates cohesive and fluid ،es inside the structure, where walls become ceilings. Simple furni،ngs include a bar, bench, and a small kitchen.
