Covid19 has forced society to rethink one of the activities we treasure the most - vacation. Instead the sun shines on local tourism. Many seek outdoor adventures enjoying the tranquility in nature. The project interprets the shelter and contributes to a sustainable way of vacation.

A floating platform in concrete as a support to the shelter. The shelter consists of glulam frames lined with shingles and underneath a trampoline net which is strung up in the platform to relax in.
