Forestone Cabin, Lleida, Catalonia, Spain,

Located in MónNatura, Sort, this ecological shelter in the Pyrenees stands as a compelling example of synergy between education, local industry, craftsmanship, and regenerative forestry.

Forestone Cabin is a 20 m² experimental wooden dwelling designed and built by the 2025 cohort of IAAC's Master in Ecological Architecture and Advanced Construction, as part of the Bio for Piri initiative.

Led by the Fundació Catalunya La Pedrera and funded by the Biodiversity Foundation with European Next Generation funds, this initiative promotes regenerative forestry and the sustainable use of local timber from Pyrenean forests, specifically in Alinyà (Lleida). 

The cabin sits on a sloping site just a few steps from the existing hostel, offering temporary accommodation for two people, with a sleeping area, workspace, and bathroom.
