Capillarity plays a crucial role. The valley’s topography guides the spread and accumulation of water to the ground and plants for percolation and storage. Plants bring water up the roots and stems, returning moisture to the environment. Rain percolates down through soil and rock to the water table.
The focused interventions will help to improve social life between the quarters on both sides of the stream by utilizing found conditions, local knowledge, and over-looked public spaces.

In one of the most unlikely places imaginable the small island community of Røst united in an enormous effort to stage an opera in the summer of 2012. This event has developed into an annual festival, and as thousands come to watch it is now the main cultural happening of the year.
The population continues to dramatically rise and fall as the calm autumn months and the fishing- and tourist season come around. With the opera house programme serving as a point of departure the aim of the project is a structure that addresses the unique temporal urbanity of Røst.

The coastal area will gradually loose much of its land under the sea, forming a series of new islands due to sea-level rise. Millions of climate change refugees have begun to migrate to higher land, however it has been predicted that by the year 2100 approximately 5 million people will continue to live in the coastal delta.
Far from the thoughts and things of home... simply there and open. Water, as it crashes down rock. Darkness. A depth, there, with which you are one.
I wondered what it would mean if the human could become less subject-like, and the physical less object-like. What would be left? How could it be done? And what consequences would this have for the human’s relation to their surroundings?

As we grow up, both social norms and our size prohibits us from hiding under the tablecloth. It's just plain weird.
In this project, the hope is to help create the feeling of finding something hidden, a place to withdraw. The site is a small, fenced off gap between two buildings, the street and a park. By opening up a narrow passage through the site, both a secluded part of the steep-sloped park and the site itself become places that engage curiosity.
