The final form was a result of a few constrains which included: fitting the roof above 2 water tanks placed vertically and under an existing cabin window, reusing as many parts of an old shed, blending harmoniously with the roof of the cabin, using wood on the roof. New concrete floor provided as much height as possible for water tanks while the cantilevered wooden floor provided ventilated space for storing firewood. Using truss walls instead of typical frame structure allowed it to be limited to the building envelope. It was built during a month by a crew of three on Litloya island in the north of Norway.
