construction

The fabrication of the massive wood elements – the

view box and the floors – took place at the Norsk

Massivtre factory in Begnadalen. The work was

carried by a group of eleven students during one

week. Nine 46 x 95 mm planks of spruce were

stacked and screwed together to form elements,

which were assembled to form the parts.

The floors that are exposed to the rain have long slits

to let the wind dry the wet wood.

The finished pieces were transported by truck from

the factory to the site, and lifted into the structure

by crane. They were then screwed to the beams and

slidden between the columns, leaving a gap for the

wood to expand.
