Cabins, cottages and hideouts

The Design of Retreat: Cabins, cottages and hideouts visits some of the most prolific designers, artists and creatives at the getaways they have envisioned for themselves or others. Spanning six continents,we travel from the laid-back beaches of Brazil to the mountains of Lebanon, passing Californian forest cabins and rural Canadian cottages on the way.
Among the hideouts featured in this book, you’ll find a chateau envisioned by French designer Pierre Yovanovitch in Provence, France; design duo Studio KO’s compound outside of Marrakech; the nomadic artist Not Vital’s castle in the Engadine Valley, Switzerland; New York studio General Assembly’s reimagining of a Hudson Valley farmhouse; an architectural nest designed by South African artist Porky Hefer in the Namib Desert – and many more.
