scs: 2” x 2” bathing terrace
The
location
of
this
project
is
in
Nusfjord,
one
of
the
best
preserved
cod
fishing
villages
in
Lofoten
and
now
historically
protected.
It
has
been
converted
from
a
fishing
village
used
in
the
darkest
winter
months
to
a
summer
tourist
resort.
The
design
of
the
2”
x
2”
bathing
platform
is
a
re-interpretatio
in
timber
of
the
massive
rock
landscape
on
which
it
sits.
The
ondulating
terrace
contains
a
sun-deck
with
various
bathing
facilities,
including
a
sauna
and
a
hot
tub.
The
project
faces
the
mouth
of
the
fjord
and
in
winter
is
battered
by
waves
which
pass
over
the
roofs
of
the
adjoining
buildings.
The
uplift
force
of
these
waves
was
countered
by
a
massive
underbuilding
structure and a terrace which is 50% open to let the water through and thus offer as little resistance as possible.
