This prefabricated cabin is comprised of only 550 square feet, built on Lake Pend Orielle near Sandpoint, Idaho. The one-bedroom and one-bathroom cabin was designed by FabCab and built by Selle Valley Construction, Inc, using timber frame and SIPs (structural insulated panel).

SIPs, are a composite building material consisting of an insulating layer of rigid polymer foam sandwiched between two layers of structural board. FabCab designs and sells pre-fabricated environmentally-friendly homes and accessory dwelling units (ADUs). The company specializes in design for all ages and environmentally sustainable design by providing clients eco-friendly and universally designed cabins that support healthy lifestyles.

There are many uses for FabCabs including a home, guest house, home office, writer’s or artist’s studio, caregiver’s residence, in-law apartment, rental unit or a cabin on a vacation property.
