The pre fab pool is getting more and more crowed, making it harder for new comers to distinguish themselves from one another. With their adorable logo and memorable name, Form and Forest is doing a pretty darn good job.
The Vancouver, British Columbia based company has a line of flat pack cabins that is at once modern and nostalgic at the same time. The Cowboy has a soaker tub (Stetson not included) at the center of the plan (view of the night sky, anyone?) and The Trapper (shown below) has a fire pit option on the sizable deck. The Ranger, with two levels, is the largest and offers a sleeping loft in addition to the two bedrooms.
All three models (a fourth is rumored to be coming this week) have large windows to capture the requisite fantastic views and plenty of open space (plus decks!) to accommodate a family or collection of guests.
The very American idea of instant gratification is behind an semi instant vacation home - why spend months (years?) building your dream second house when you can skip (almost) directly to the end game of enjoying yourself? Plus, with the edict of pre fab homes (smarter, more efficient, eco conscious building) at the heart of Form & Forest you don't even have to feel guilty for not wanting to wait.
