Bench integrated in Reindeer Observation Pavillion

The front is a glass wall with a bench integrated in the interior. At the backside, the bench is integrated as an outdoor bench.

This Reindeer Observation post is located at Hjerkinn on the outskirts of Dovrefjell National Park, overlooking the Snøhetta mountain massif. The 90m2 building is open to the public and serves as an observation pavilion for the Wild Reindeer Foundation educational program.

The blog of the local Wild Reindeer Foundation chapter Villrein has a nice video of the opening they should put on Youtube…This bench could become world famous (gamous?)…

Soft Structure Chair by Ditte Hammerstroem


Soft Structure by Ditte Hammerstroem
In Bistro Light Revisited I promised more of Ditte Hammerstroem, and here it is. As if grandma was busy knitting your a cosy chair.

Ditte:

A sofa that turns itself inside out. The upholstery has been peeled off, turning the bared innards into the face of the furniture. Strips of foam that are woven around the structure explore new upholstery techniques and elevate an anonymous material that we usually keep out of sight. From hidden stuffing to visible surface.

Hm I would call it a settee rather than a sofa…and you?
