Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

We love art credits when possible.

I don't get why the stairs could not be closer or literally under it. Also given the likely expense you would think you would pop for an elevator but then again maybe that is just me since it is increasingly my nemesis.

The stairs scream "afterthought" to me.

"Done. I've built my perfect little cabin on stilts"

"How do you get into it?"

"... i said I'm nearly done; just one more trip to the hardware store..."

"OK hear me out. We're going to have a pulley, a rope and a barrel of bricks ..."

Because it’s an art installation

Underneath means you lose floor space inside, which is already limited because of how space inefficient A frame houses are.

I like the concept but don't get why we can't do an A frame with convex sides so at least the first floor has pretty much full width. Gets you way more useable space for a very similar athstetic.

The steep and narrow A frame is the worst part about this. That thing would suck even if it was built on the ground.

It is norway, isn't it? I'd imagine snow building up on the roof is a very serious concern.

So you can add explosive bolts to the walkway and completely sever the outside world's access.

I forgot the zombie apocalypse angle.

With your 3 days of supplies inside

Can you imagine having to bring in groceries, or a new piece of furniture?

Know what? We might need to come back in at a different angle, again.

Likely what they are for structural stability against sheer forces.
