The job emerged from a concept that lay dormant for several years before being restored through collaboration in between the original Pyxis Nautica designers and Hi Wood’s design-build know-how, leading to a structure that is at once sculptural and deeply linked to its woody setting.

Product Richness & Structural Clearness

Photography © György Palkó & Márton Bognár Photography © György Palkó & Márton Bognár The name Monolith Lodge refers to its specifying architectural gesture: a monolithic concrete chimney that stands as both structural anchor and visual centerpiece. Cast with rough-sawn board formwork, this imposing aspect connects materially and aesthetically with the home’s rigid geometry and enhances a sense of permanence and location. Photography © György Palkó & Márton Bognár The main structure is established on strengthened concrete, while walls and roofing are built from five-layer, exposed-quality CLT(cross-laminated lumber)panels. This combination of materials allows for fast assembly– three days for the main structure and a six-month general building timeline– yet yields an abundant tactile experience of wood, concrete and metal.< img src="image/svg+xml;

A Finnish sauna and an outdoor electrical jacuzzi extend the living experience into health and leisure, while balconies — both covered (31.2 m ²) and open (17.6 m TWO)– wrap around the building, additional liquifying the limit in between architecture and landscape .

The exposed CLT structure imbues warmth; the monolithic concrete chimney supplies sculptural weight; and the wraparound terraces use immersive forest engagement. The style technique– marrying wood and concrete with

extensive glazing– allows the home to anchor in the forest while preserving refined minimalism. Why Monolith Lodge Matters Drawing © Pyxis Nautica+Hi Wood Drawing © Pyxis Nautica+Hey there Wood Drawing © Pyxis Nautica+Hey There Wood Monolith Lodge stands as a compelling example of contemporary forest architecture– an intimate, sophisticated refuge that celebrates timber craftsmanship, sculptural kind and serene presence in nature.
