The document proposes a sungazer observation cabin design for Wiston Lodge in South Lanarkshire, Scotland. It would provide clients a space to experience the remote and unusual landscape. Inspired by Farnsworth House and Riva san Vitale, the design aims to create a space hierarchy with key views of the landscape from inside and a threshold between interior and exterior. Dimensions and elevations of the proposed cabin are included for review.
