The Modern Prefab: IDS Toronto

February 6, 2024 Guest User

Thank you to everyone who joined us in person, and those who followed along on Instagram, as the team brought our smallest systems to Interior Design Show (IDS) Toronto!

We assembled our iconic prefabricated System 00 A-Frame cabin on the show floor in just three days with the help of our assembly team at Hummingbird Hill Homes. The cabin was placed beside our pre-assembled System S Sauna which arrived on site ready-to-go, just like it does in the field.

Over the course of the weekend we welcomed thousands of cabin lovers in - to talk cabin dreams, explore our Systems, and make themselves at home. As part of IDS Toronto's Modern Prefab feature exhibit, our team was also happy to talk about the numerous benefits of working with a prefabricated solution - efficiency, cost, and sustainability being just a few!

By the end of four days in our little grove we were ready to pack up - and again the team at Hummingbird Hill Homes got to work, packing up the Sauna and disassembling the System 00 cabin in just one evening.

Our sustainably-crafted are designed to leave a light footprint in the field - and on the show floor: both are now off to their future destinations at client sites in North America! 

We were proud as well that the editorial team at Designlines Magazine tagged our System 00 cabin as one of their IDS Toronto favourites!

Each year the team awards "Love Tag" favourites at events across Toronto, recognizing the recognizing the exceptional craftsmanship and creativity in the local design community.

We also crossed paths at the event with our friends Colin + Justin, who have featured BHC in the past, on the cover of their curated coffee table book for cabin-lovers Escapology, and now on the cover of their first winter edition of Kabin, a magazine celebrating all things cabin culture!

The Backcountry Hut Company returns to IDS Toronto in January!

November 30, 2023 Guest User

On the five year anniversary of our public launch, BHC is returning to IDS Toronto!

We first introduced our cabin systems to the public at IDS Toronto in 2019, where we assembled and showed the System 01 to great interest and enthusiasm. That version of our System 01 product offering - affectionately dubbed ‘The Great Lakes Cabin,’ was subsequently re-assembled at it's final home on a private island in Ontario’s cottage country.

Since that first appearance, we have undergone a remarkable transformation as an organization - we’ve grown as a team, increased our reach across North America, and introduced two innovative new systems - the System 00 A-Frame and the System S Sauna. Our evolution has not only kept pace with the demands of the marketplace but has set the bar higher for the prefabricated cabin sector.

Join us at IDS Toronto to experience the System 00 and System S

Our team will be assembling our popular prefabricated System 00 A-Frame on the trade show floor, demonstrated alongside our pre-assembled System S Sauna. Both systems have been developed since our original IDS launch, and we're excited to showcase them to the cabin- and design-loving community in Toronto.

We'll also be there to discuss the workings and virtues of all our cabin systems, to answer questions about planning and budgeting, to extoll the virtues of prefabricated building, and to explore trends in incorporating wellness programming into recreational getaways. 

The System 00  A-Frame, our smallest and most streamlined cabin option, distills the iconic A-frame aesthetic down to its purest essentials. With a compact area of approximately 10 x 10 feet, it comes to life as a single bedroom sleeping bunk, or as a meditation, yoga, or art studio. Designed to be self-assembled, our System 00 Prefab A-Frame is a dream DIY project. With a small team of 4-5 capable people, this a-frame cabin kit can be built from start-to-finish over a long weekend.

The System S Preassembled Sauna takes inspiration from Nordic sauna culture, in a free-standing sauna structure with a compact footprint of 8’ x 10’. Lined with sustainably sourced clear cedar, the interior offers a two-level bench system that comfortably seats six adults. Clad in durable painted steel, System S can withstand extreme weather conditions and heavy use. Designed for ultimate instant gratification, no assembly is required! The system arrives on site fully constructed and ready to connect to existing electrical systems.
