The region around Ålesund is one of the most popular tourist hot-spots in Norway. In addition to the renowned UNESCO World Heritage Site in Geirangerfjord and the snow-covered peaks of the Hjørundfjord, the ragged mountains of the Sunnmøre Alps projecting almost 2000 metres over the fjords also attract many visitors. In the midst of this landscape sits the Black Lodge holiday home, like a foundling in nature. The amorphous shape of the interweaving surfaces is accentuated by the unusual material of the façade in combination with the timber shell of the interior. Large-scale glazing with slimline profiles allow generous views and blur the spatial boundaries.
