A hunting cabin with a view

Andes architect Marlys Hann is featured in Chronogram Magazine this week as the designer of a Catskills retreat dubbed the "skylight house." Hann's assignment, according to the story, was to open up a "cramped and dark" hunting cabin. So she installed a roof-long skylight and a spectacular glassed-in cantilevered staircase.

The result has something in common with another specimen of Catskills architecture that we've featured. It seems that architects love building Catskills getaways that are semi-transparent.
