Dissimilar scaling of stonework, along with the mixing of materials creates a more luxurious feel for this large bathroom with a round soaking tub.

Hut has are several new Rööm projects underway, including work in Ashland, Oregon and Marin County, California. The Ashland project will be sent as a full flatpack and assembled on-site.

The structure is anchored using ground screws rather than a concrete slab, which amplifies its scalability and mobility. The method is more common in cold, European countries but Nick, a long-time Californian, appreciated that the ground screws, unlike concrete, won’t crack in the event of an earthquake.

Once all the materials are on-site, it takes a small team between 7 to 14 days to assemble a Rööm structure.

The couple run their design firm, Delavegacanolasso, from the separate tini office on their property.

The duo’s design philosophy is influenced by the principles in Case Study Houses. They believe in creating spaces that are simple, warm, and special without the use of superfluous elements.

With its expansive views and ample openings, the home feels larger than its 1,636 square feet.

The kitchen cost roughly totaled $16,000.

The design team used granite elements for landscaping and kept plantings simple and cohesive with the existing site.
