Description
How the architects describe this creation:
"The idea behind Skogsdunge was to create an artificial forest, constructed of vertical elements stacked together in sections that together support the entire structure. “Floating” amongst the branches of the surrounding trees is a lightly protected den for two.
The floor of the den acts as a simple roof for the communal space beneath. Secreted between the artificial “trees” are places to sit, pathways and other obstacles to explore and enjoy the natural environment.
Conceptually Skogsdunge was created as a structure that connect with the forest clearing and its exposed position in the landscape. The result was Skogsdunge. This wind shelter was formerly called Motte."
