This rustic cabin in the middle of a forest in Spain took three years to renovate, maintaining the romanticism of a logger-style cabin. Lara Vallés, from Space Stage, is the owner and interior designer of this cabin. She and her husband and their blended family of four children spend time in this beautifully transformed space.
The husband had dreamed about this home since he was a little boy riding by it on his bicycle. When it came up for sale, the couple could not resist purchasing, even though it was dark and debilitated. Used as a family vacation cabin, the couple retreat here just the two of them or sometimes they visit together as a family.

What We Love: This rustic cabin is the dream of the owner since he was a child and has been transformed into a beautiful family retreat. The homeowners have made their home inviting enough to spend time for romantic getaways, a place where they can work and a space to bring family and entertain. A chef’s kitchen and a cozy living-kitchen-office with a fireplace offers a great social area, while a private zone gives everyone their own place to rest, work and enjoy the forest views.

Above: The kitchen was designed as an open concept, adapting to the house and its shape. The idea was that the family could cook and chat while enjoying the views. It was designed so that everything is at hand.
Above: The island and the table are a single continuous piece of furniture — and the cook has a view! The pendant lights over the island are by Normann Copenhagen (Scandinavian Design Furniture).
Above: The island, the countertop in the kitchen, the upper shelves and the framing of the furniture were made with Neolith Sintered Stone.
Above: In the transition area to the rooms, they avoided the hallway and took advantage of the space as a studio. A high wall-to-wall table was created where the family can work together. Below, is storage space.
