Lake Austin Cabin is a project designed by Black Rabbit. An undeveloped 5 acre lot had been a gathering place for the client?s family since the 1970?s. This beautiful lakefront oasis, known affectionately as The Narrows, lies just a few miles outside of downtown Austin. The owners insisted on a simple, humble, yet unique cabin to host their family gatherings and quiet weekend retreats. Photography by Leonid Furmansky.

This small cabin, nicknamed ?Cousin Cabana?, needed to host multiple programs in a small space while maintaining a sense of openness. Only 480 sf, the cabin features a combined kitchen-living-dining room adjacent to a wood deck. We chose natural materials and methods that would be maintenance-free for years including an ipe wood rainscreen siding, custom floor-to-ceiling face-glazed steel windows and board-formed concrete planters.
