adventure is in the air.
these cabins embody a spirit of adventure. these cabins encourage users to interact with nature. these cabins are a part of the natural environment. these cabins alter natural features and ecosystems as little as possible. these cabins relate to the spirit of their places. these cabins encourage a sense of ‘public privacy’ similar ot the experience of camping. these cabins have a sustainable life cycle, and can be relatively easily recycled or repurposed.
this type of camping-not-camping trip is becoming increasingly popular, as is the practice of seeking out small, private places to stay that are the opposite of tourist attractions. the audience for “the never-never cabins” includes individuals from the city looking for some time away to reflect and explore, to harcore outdoor explorer types, to fans of extreme sports, to families looking for an authentic outdoor experience without the hassle of a camper. most of all, though, the never-never cabins cater to those who seek adventure; the people to whom stepping onto a float plane for a quick bumpy flight to nowhere is not a hardship but a dream.

site
‘these cabins are designed for adventure’ and the floor plans reflect that. at kakadu specifically, no two are the same. at all sites, there is no glass; wire mesh is used instead - unrestricted access to the sounds, sights, and smells of nature. watch the water from your shower bounce off the cliff. open the sliding doors on the main living space and watch cockatoos fly through. wake up, roll out of the bed, and find yourself facing towards the door - and towards exploration. storage space specifically buit for the traveller/adventurer. a completely open-air observation deck. your vehicle is waiting at the bottom of the stairs. go explore.
each of the four sites contains the same modular layouts. all units have flexible bedroom units which can be built either for a single full bed or bunked single beds. likely three cabins on each site would use full beds, with a bunk bed alternate. the bathroom units remain essentially the same across all four sites. the third primary space is the living space, which is flexible and occurs between the bedroom and bathroom units (to mitigate odors). at kakadu, the site lends this modular layout a great deal of complexity. each cabin can thus draw on cues from each of the three others to create a continuous experience while still remaining adaptable and specifically idealized to its unique location. every time you go, you get a different experience - not only in nature, but indoors too.

SLASH
Using existing site characteristics and the foundation that users approach the Long Warehouse from an angle, a zinc coated wall seperates private from public users in the search for more intimate spaces. The private zone, consisting of english garden lawns, brings in staff. The public zone, which opens up onto the carpark and reflecting pool, brings in consumers and tourists. Acting as a dividing tool, the fountain creates a continuous circulation that flows through the building and loops around, creating an ADA path with various amenities surrounding a courtyard.
