Reviews
Gawking at wood in the raw: Cabin Porn
"Why can't all these people stop looking at cabins? What is the allure? Put simply, Cabin Porn is visual stimulation of the urge for a simpler life in beautiful surroundings."
The Atlantic

"If you're going to visit Cabin Porn, you'd better have a lot of leisure time handy."
Apartment Therapy

"A lust-worthy compendium."
Dwell

Over the past six years, the authors have collected photos and stories of more than 12,000 cabins handmade by people using whatever they could find near places that mean something special to them. This book contains more than 200 cabins handpicked from those archives for inspiration, as well as ten special stories and photo collections.

It takes two hands to hold this hefty piece of processed wood pulp (Zach Klein/Cabin Porn).
