This simple structure made exclusively from paperboard and metallic tabs is the result of an exercise aimed at experimenting with the material attributes and with human scale. The objective of this exercise was building a small space that could house one or two people for a short time, a place to stay for a few minutes and observe the light effects on the paperboard walls. This cabin takes advantage of the effects of the light that leaks through the entrance and through a large opening at the top and rest in its internal walls, full of folds, drawing shapes of light and shadow.
