A Wooden Cabin under Northern Lights

A wooden cabin with a prefabricated honeycomb-like structure, called Varden, has opened on Storfjellet mountain in Norway.

Spinn Arkitekter designed the shelter, which exists to encourage hiking in the mountains surrounding the town of Hammerfest, for the Norwegian Trekking Association.

"Varden is designed as a response to the surrounding arctic landscape in a way that blends it in with the mountains and rocks," James Dodson, partner of Spinn Arkitekter.

It has an "organic" prefabricated framework, developed in collaboration with Format Engineers to echo its rugged arctic setting, while withstanding harsh polar winters.
