The cottage replaces an old cabin and is supplemented with a new outhouse and jetty.

The buildings two volumes separate living from sleeping areas, and create a protected patio which gives shelter from different wind conditions.  

A fan-shaped plan opens the cluster towards the south. The southernmost wing contains the private zone with modest sleeping cabins. The east wing consists of a split-level open living/kitchen area with views across the inlet towards Jomfruland.

The pine facade is treated with iron-sulphate which together with the sedum-moss roof captures the natural colouring of the surroundings.
