This isn’t a Saami building, it’s a type of storehouse called a stabbur, and this specific one is located in Hattfjelldal municipality in Norway. The Saami are indigenous to far northern Europe in the tundra, where almost no trees large enough to build cabins like this grow.

I stand corrected, thanks for the sources. After a little more digging I learned they’re called Áittit in the Sami language and are built along their nomadic routes, but I can’t really find all too much more info on them online. https://www.woodz.co/journal/beautiful-sami-storeroom-norway-cabin/ … http://naturalhomes.org/timeline/stabbur.htm …

Ooh. That's so Baba Yaga

It is. That's the folkloric origin of her chicken-footed izba. The skull-topped fence, on the other side, is just her idea of garden design

Baba Yaga’s architect had a more prolific career than I thought.
