DESIGN CONCEPT

The design proposal is an exhibition of the Vrångö archipelago spread out in weather shelters on the site. The shelters have a strict shape that works in contrast to nature framing a view on the site, directing the attention to a motive in connection to the qualities of the Vrångö archipelago. The qualities highlighted are the vegetation, the bird life, the sea, the protected area for seals and birds and the historical remains. Each shelter is seen as a starting point which purpose is to spark an interest that will encourage the visitors to explore the area further. 

MATERIALITY

The shelters are made of terrazzo due to its robust character, durability and aesthetic qualities. From afar the material will blend in with the grey tones of the landscape, but as you approach it you will learn that the material is actually something else.
