A light and sculptural habitat

Based in the heart of the Ardennes, the companies Scidus and Mobic have developed a range of integrated activities: forest management, sawmills, timber frame houses, roasted wood… One of their latest innovations, Robotmob 2, brings a sculptural approach to woodwork. This is the technique that Louise Charlier and Judicaël Cornu have explored with a cabin in organic shapes. Designed to offer a solid and sustainable housing solution for summer festivals and other such events, the object is built around two monohulls cut out at once. “We have sought to develop a new typology experimenting with a technique on the scale of habitat that brings a completely new formal freedom to woodwork”, Judicaël Cornu explains. Inspired by the sculptures of Richard Serra, among others, the cabin has been designed to cause a minimal impact on the terrain where it is placed.
