The modular cabin

Connection between architecture and nature. The five different A-Frame modules can be individually combined to form a matching unit that finds a suitable format for everyone. The building structure is made of natural materials and embeds itself appropriately in the natural context to relate the site-specific existing timber construction.

Watchtower

The design proposal is a hybrid between a typical Norwegian cabin and an observation tower with connection to the local context. The project provides a refuge space for the trekkers and serves also as tourist hospitality space. In addition, the facility is equipped with an observation point overlooking Lake Vågåvatn and the surrounding mountains.
