What is a Fiber Cottage?
A Fiber cottage is a small house or dwelling made primarily of Fiber. These structures are typically associated with rural and countryside settings to blend with the natural environment.

These cottages are famous for their aesthetic appeal and the warmth and natural beauty of wood as a building material.
