Projects
The projects conceived in our laboratory propose new approximations and narratives to relate us with the Nordic environment, exploring new aspects to redefine the boundaries between natural habitats and community by creating sensitive landscape projects and site-interventions that leave spaces for new encounters.
The projects originate from different geographies of the Nordic landscape, with special emphasis on the Icelandic landscape. In this way, our projects explore Nordic sites in close dialogue with the territory. The creative and research process is closely connected to environmental and social challenges, where we develop a close connection with these geographies, applying local concepts, materials and techniques, while involving the local inhabitants. We are focused on providing experiential approaches by incorporating the notion of place, emphasizing its specific qualities
Through this approach, the projects, grounded in practice-based research, interact with the Nordic territory, generating new ways of coexistence.
FROM GLACIER TO DELTA
The project explores and traces the water journey of the Hvítá River, from the Langjökull glacier to its meeting point with fjord at the Atlantic Ocean
VENICE ARCHITECTURE BIENNALE
The exhibition honors Iceland’s cultural and natural landscapes by exploring the connections between sheep, wool, and the land, closely intertwined with traditional practices.. the influence of sheep in shaping the territory, the significance of wool, and the collective art of knitting.
KNITTING A LIVING HERITAGE
FROM WOOL TO LAND
Exploration and research process developed towards the Venice Architecture Biennale, weaving together exhibition, lectures, and workshops
BELOW ZERO SNOWSCAPES
The project explores snow landscapes in dialogue with bodily experience and the senses. Feeling, touching, walking. Modeling the snow, tracing and marking silhouettes. Wind, light, low temperatures; natural dynamics that offer different tactile experiences.
Transects: Landscapes on Move | Sweden
The project aims to explore a broader approximation of the western coastal territory of Sweden and its connection to the Kattegattleden bicycle path. It examines the links between landscape engagement, cycling-focused research, and art-based processes by mapping and developing a series of landscape transects through artistic site explorations on bicycle, which are disseminated in a visual catalog of natural littoral features.
