Svillen - Reinterpreting the boathouse clusters of Bohuslän
Based on studies of historical boathouse clusters in Bohuslän, we explore through craftsmanship how contemporary architecture can reflect the architectural tradition of Bohuslän. The interpretation is inspired by the formation and tectonics of the boathouses, in combination with more modern materials such as corrugated iron and plywood.
Jury Motivation:
An exciting architecture that explores the collective form in a cluster of Bohuslän boathouses. Traditional architecture and local context combined with contemporary materials and expressions have resulted in an elaborate project with fine spatial connections and details. Precise architectural models effectively communicate the qualities of the project.
