You can buy the Smart Shack either hooked up to “the grid” or not – the ones without grid access have solar cells, a composting toilet, and water storage. They also come either fully finished or in a flat pack for you to put together. The Smart Shack is perfect for difficult to reach places, and looks awesome! Unfortunately, they are in Australia only right now, but hopefully that’ll change soon.

I’m amazed at this fantastic home – not only does it look great, but it’s made from shipping containers! I’m accustomed to seeing the squarishness of the containers, but this house just looks awesome. It’s probably too big to truly use as a cabin, but it does give me some ideas…

This wacky design is from Netherlands designer Gert Eussen. While probably too small to be a true cabin, it’d be easy to build, and might hold you off until you can get your real dream cabin built! Plus, it’s almost a tree house!
