hutspace

Hutspace began with extensive research into sustainable building methods for steep terrain near Kosovo’s historic Artana Castle. Recognizing that traditional excavation methods would harm the natural landscape, the project focused on a modular, prefabricated steel solution to minimize environmental impact. A key turning point was collaboration with a local partner, who generously provided suitable mountainous land and financial support, enabling the realization of a sustainable prototype. The cabin’s innovative floating structure, fully fabricated off-site and rapidly assembled, protects the site’s ecological integrity and cultural significance. Hutspace now serves as a pioneering example of eco-sensitive design in the region, seamlessly harmonizing contemporary architecture, heritage, and nature.
