NOLLA CABIN BY NESTE

SUSTAINABLE LUXURY CABIN

Nolla cabin – a sustainable summer cottage built in 2018 – was envisioned by Robin Falck and developed by Neste to explore sustainable living. To make sure continuum applies the trend of sustainable living, Neste is organising a competition where people don’t need to travel to experience the Nolla cabin, but can rather build their own cabins. In total, 12 lucky winners can obtain the blueprints of the Nolla cabin.

Nolla, the Zero Cabin, was designed to have as small an environmental impact as possible. The prototype of the A-framed cabin was built on the idyllic Vallisaari island in Finland. Neste’s objective was to prove that modern luxury experiences do not have to take a toll on the environment. The cabin’s energy supply was made entirely renewable: electricity is generated by solar panels, whilst the Wallas stove, reserved for cooking and heating, runs entirely on Neste MY Renewable Diesel™. The fuel is made 100% from waste and residue raw materials, and has about 90% less greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil diesel.

In the competition, the prize itself is a set of blueprints of the cabin and all building and materials must be organized by the winner. The idea of the competition is to prove that the Nolla cabin can be built anywhere from local materials and that it suits any environment. All entrants have to do to win is to post a picture of a scenery they wish to enjoy out of the unique triangular window. Entrants should post the picture on Instagram using the hashtag #mynolla along with a short explanation of what they would use the cabin for.
