Le Tronc Creux – Shelter for an overnight stay in nature.
Not far from the city of Bordeaux (France) in a forested area, there is an original structure resembling a wooden cylinder. This is a special shelter house where you can stay overnight, spending weekends in nature with the whole family or with friends.
Bruit du Frigo studio project.
The French architectural studio Bruit du Frigo has implemented a project for the construction of a series of original dwellings located in a forested area near the city of Bordeaux. These cylindrical structures, called Le Tronc Creux («Hollow trunk») are made of natural materials and really resemble a fallen tree.

When creating this dwelling, the architects were guided by the idea of a temporary refuge located relatively close to the house. If desired, a group of friends or a family who decided to spend a weekend in nature can settle there for the night.
Le Tronc Creux – shelter for 9 people.
Le Tronc Creux is made of a steel frame covered with planks. Thermal insulation is provided by a layer of recycled wood. There is enough space inside to accommodate 9 people. The cylinder contains three single beds, three double beds, folding table and chairs. Through holes act as windows.

There is no electricity or sewage in this house. A dry toilet is located nearby. You can spend the night in such a dwelling completely free of charge, having previously booked the required day..
