The project aims to create a new urban hub in the small town of Lycksele, in northern Sweden. Inspired by sami vernacular, a new flexible marketplace is introduced, defining an inclusive meeting point which reflects the town's broad demographic and sami heritage. With a focus on food, commerce and events the intervention relates to the region's climate, seasons and variable need for public space.

A big part of the project has been to meet the town of Lycksele's variable need for public space. Different scenarios are shown in the diagrams.

Throughout the year, Lycksele goes through different scenarios in which the town feels and acts as more or less alive. This depending on for example the climate, tourism, or events such as the annual big and popular market days.
