We based our work during the developing
process of the dreamcatcher in trying to figure
out which things would work properly in terms
of production and construction, and which we
had to rethink.
after the analysis, we found out that the
main structure could be prefabricated in the
workshop and assembled on site, you can see
the detail of the joint to the right.
the stairs and the net, though, were not such
an easy thing to figure out, due to the balance
between design and security. that’s why we
ended up using fisherman’s net as a method
to safely climb up the tower and also to lay on
it and provide this nest feeling once the user
gets to the top.
another factor was the acceptance of the
snow within the project. We would not develop
a method in order to remove it. Instead, we
decided to allow it to enter and simply adjust
the heights of the facade and railing according
to the new flooring level.
