JR's Hut

Cabins • Documentary, 01-Aug-2020

Inspired by a classic ‘A’ frame tent, JR's Hut stands alone on a hill outside Gundagai in rural New South Wales. It is a place to switch off, quite literally, and forget about the distractions of modern life. Sustainable Australian hardwoods were the obvious choice given the huts ‘eco’ brief and remote location.
