About Discussions Projects7 Journals10

Norwegian architecture draws on a long tradition of timber construction, from historic storehouses and log cabins to contemporary wood-framed houses. Designers working in Norway respond to a demanding climate, steep and remote terrain, and a strong relationship between buildings and the surrounding landscape.

Members here share work that spans renovation of heritage buildings such as the Hearth House in Helgeroa, new residential schemes like the Solberg Hage row houses, and small-scale projects including saunas, cabins, and coastal and mountain structures. Discussion also covers institutional and academic work from the Trondheim architecture college and the Oseberg Marine Institute.

Norway has a long intimate history and culture to its rivers and glaciers. As the world faces a slow but sure rise of sea levels due to climate change, glaciers are melting and the world will begin to flood with more intensity. As Norway loses its glaciers this structure will stand as the last glacier to survive the floods of climate change.

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.
