THE CONSTRUCTION
The project must have a simple structure and stable. Indeed we
need to go above the vegetation. That is why the project is over 3m.
Also this level must be stable, so the project is a large beam carried to
both ends.
Working with untreated wood sounds interesting, the material itself
has a lot of quality.
CONCEPT
Work on the path:
In this project two ways to deal with the way appear, first that of the
line and point, on he other hand, that of making the walk around the
hill.
So I think it is preferable that the access for professionals is the most
direct as possible because they know the site.
For families, I would like suger path through the trees, more so than
visual material (like land-art) For exemples: Richard Long ‘s work on
the landscape.
Work on the levels:
Given the need to develop a project in height, I work on two levels.
Indeed, the first is the lower. The place provided for families or begin-
ners. And views are predefined, the child may also see birds, there
will be seated. The space is rather closed or perforated so as to create
a warm place where you can stay a while at the shelter.
The second would be completely open to the sky. It would be more
for experienced people. (space large enough to accommodate at least
three observers and telescopes.)
