A collaboration between the three biggest architectural schools in Norway. This is the process of the work during the yearly "Trestykker" project. Which is a yearly collaboration to create something in wood which can help develop a city or area. The word "trestykker" is Norwegian, which means "wood pieces".

The location of the place you can see in the plan above. Our element of design is a 10 diameter circle made out of wood. The big challenge here is to make something circular and anchor the construction to the sea bottom.
