“Koto were able to hone in on and add materiality to the practical aspects of our broad concepts that made the process feel very organic and evolutionary.” Wim Stevenson, Trees at Tughall Owner.
Set within a quiet, natural landscape, the cabins are designed to offer a sense of escape and simplicity. Clean architectural forms are paired with warm, tactile interiors to create spaces that feel calm, comfortable, and connected to their surroundings.
Careful positioning and orientation maximise privacy while framing views of the surrounding countryside, supporting a guest experience centred around rest, nature, and slow living.
