    Off-grid Cabin Rebuild
    $400,000

    We feel so fortunate to have found Patrick and his crew at Harka and couldn’t be happier with their design of our off-grid cabin. We lost the original cabin, built by hippies in the 70s, to a wildfire. We loved that place and, while small, it left big shoes to fill. Patrick considered the cabin’s place on the landscape and integrated the elements into the design - the prevailing winds, the movement of the sun, potential snowfall, and rainfall. He maximized our views and natural light while making sure we had a building envelope that would keep us comfortable in the bitter cold of winter and the scorching heat of summer. The materials he selected were as sustainable and fire resistant as our budget would allow. He came to the table with creative ideas and, importantly, he listened.
