Why Cabin Works for Open Workspaces

Space & Budget Guidance

Small Space Tips

Cabin style's cozy nature suits small spaces well. Embrace the enclosed feeling rather than fighting it. Focus on comfortable seating, warm textiles, and strategic nature elements. For a small open workspace: Small open workspaces (under 20 people) can feel community-like. Include variety despite limited space—even one phone booth and a small collaboration area help.

Large Space Tips

Large cabin spaces (great rooms) embrace soaring ceilings, substantial stone fireplaces, and generous furniture groupings. Create intimate seating areas within the grand space. In a larger open workspace: Large open workspaces (50+ people) require sophisticated planning: distinct neighborhoods, ample focus options, varied collaboration spaces, and clear wayfinding.

Budget-Friendly

Add wood paneling or beadboard to accent walls, incorporate plaid blankets and pillows, find rustic furniture at thrift stores, and use nature finds (branches, pinecones) as decor.

Luxury Approach

Commission custom log or timber work, source authentic antique lodge furniture, install substantial stone fireplaces, and create full mountain retreat environments.
