5 key facts about this project
## Overview
The Identity Project proposes a network of modular cabins designed specifically for trekkers, with a focus on sustainability and user experience. Located primarily in Iceland, the cabins are intended to blend into diverse natural landscapes, accommodating both mountainous and coastal settings. The project aims to create structures that serve as personal retreats, reflecting the identities of their occupants while providing necessary shelter and comfort in remote environments.
## Modular Design and User Experience
The modular approach allows for flexibility in the configuration of each cabin, offering versatility in layout and aesthetic. Key spaces include a multifunctional living area equipped with a kitchen and adaptable furniture, as well as sleeping quarters featuring sliding doors to maximize privacy and space efficiency. Smart design elements ensure ample storage solutions while maintaining a modern, streamlined atmosphere. The cabins incorporate innovative connectors designed for easy assembly and disassembly, enabling customization based on user needs.
## Material Selection and Energy Efficiency
Material choices are central to the project’s objectives of sustainability and durability. Glass facades enhance natural light and visibility while contributing to energy efficiency through solar harnessing. Wood is used extensively in both structural and interior applications, creating a warm ambiance and providing natural insulation. Cork is utilized for its thermal properties, further enhancing comfort, while metal components ensure structural integrity. Additionally, the cabins are equipped with energy-efficient technologies such as solar panels and rainwater collection systems, promoting a low environmental impact and facilitating a connection to nature through integrated technology for energy monitoring.
