Not Just A Stack Of Wood
If you think this is just a stack of wood… take a closer look.
Imaging taking a walk through a rural field somewhere off in the countryside. If you came upon a large stack of logs, you probably wouldn’t think much was out of the ordinary. After all, farmers and even those who just live in the countryside create large bundles for their winter supply. Or maybe you’d just assume they were discarded and left behind by some lumberjacks. Upon closer inspection, however, you’d be amazed to find that one particular set of seemingly normal logs are actually a secret cabin in disguise!
The camouflaged nature getaway was designed for Dutch performer Hans Liberg by Piet Hein Eeek, to be used as a recording studio. Even when he isn’t recording, the little cabin is the ultimate escape for some “me time” when the hustle and bustle of everyday life begins to grow overwhelming. Portions of the logs lift up to become fully functional windows, and inside the small space is simply furnished with musical instruments, recording equipment, as well as a bookshelf and cozy window seat. Imagine escaping into the woods, tucking yourself away in the little cabin, and snugging up on one of the over sized, plush cushions. Talk about sweetness in solitude.
The cabin looks even more charming during nightfall, as night descends upon the woods and quiets the world around it. Te only thing visible from the outside of the seeming stack of logs is the warm, orange glow of the lights. The perfect, serene atmosphere for any musician at work.

Instead of tinkering around the house during his retirement like most, Momir Bojic decided to make his dream car—the astonishing wooden car design was a labor of love that took the 71-year old Bosnian two years to put together. However, unlike most DIY cars, the VW isn’t made from scrap metal and uses over 50,000 pieces of wooden oak that are assembled like miniature rounded shingles that gives the car an interesting texture. From a distance, the car has a brownish coloring and you’d probably not even know that this car has a wooden exterior.
As illustrated in pictures, the vehicle is fully drivable and the retiree, his car, as well as his matching wooden hat get plenty of attention on the roads.
