A sólo 50 kilómetros de Tromso, Noruega, el fiordo Skarsfjord esconde un paraíso de islotes y playas de mar. La cabaña mira hacia el paisaje panorámico y las puestas de sol, más allá de la cadena de colinas que emergen en el fiordo. Los grandes paneles acristalados permiten vistas en 180º, y parte de la pared sur se desliza comunicando el living con la terraza.
De los 40m2 de superficie total, la mitad pertenecen al living y la cocina. No hay detalles elocuentes; el interior se sintetiza en tres elementos: cristal, madera y linóleo negro para el suelo; el exterior es de paneles de alerce y abedul laminado.

COTTAGE IN SKARSFJORD

Only 50 kilometres from Tromsø, Skarsfjord hides a haven of small islands and bars facing out to sea. The area is a paradise for birds and reindeer. There are cod in the fjord, and through the inland hills runs a row of small trout lakes.

In this landscape, the cottage faces west towards a panorama of evening sun and wide sea. Taking in all the surrounding natural elements it is a place very different from home.

Large panes of glass allow a 180° view of the landscape to the west. Half of the sheltered south-facing living room wall can be slid open to the smaller scale of heather, trees and rocks. Even from the sauna, you can see the starry sky and the northern lights.

About half of the total 40 square metres are living room and kitchen. There are no distracting details, all glass framing is let in to the construction. The interior is varnished birch veneer with a black linoleum floor, and the exterior is larch panelling and birch plywood.
