This cabin, built in Sweden in 2013, explores the possibilities of a new type of paper as a building material. The design is based on a corrugated exterior, which changes colour as you move around it, and at the same time increases the stability of the structure.

The houses is composed from 95 individual modules of Miniwell (a new, durable type of corrugated paper), weighing around 100 kilograms in total. The design is flexible, and could be scaled up to a length of several-hundred metres.
