Taking Form In The Forest
The long running Southwest Air advertising campaign asks the now famous question, “Wanna Get away?” A new venture called Form & Forest is hoping the answer to that question more often than not is “yes.”
That’s because Form & Forest in partnership with architect D’Arcy Jones has developed flat pack cabins you can build just about anywhere you choose to get away.
Modern in style, building materials, and construction methods, these structures have nothing in common with the cabins that will come to mind from all those years watching Gun Smoke on TV as a kid. Form & Forest cabins add style, comfort, and energy efficiency to “the wild west.”
Complete with detailed drawings, floors, walls, windows and finishes these cabins come with just about everything you’ll need to build the perfect retreat at an affordable price. You’ll of course need to hire your own contractor, get permits, and find the land. Also, Form & Forest cabins don’t come with the bear rug or the antlers of the five point you shot last winter.
Currently there are three cabin models distinguished by appropriate names such as the Cowboy, Ranger, and Trapper. The Ranger is the largest with just over 1400 square feet up and down, while the Cowboy and Trapper cling to the more traditional size of just over 600 and 700 square feet respectively. Prices range from around $65,000 to $100,000.
A fourth cabin is scheduled to be unveiled soon, and Form & Forest says they plan to roll out four additional models in 2009.
