NORTHERN LIGHT

Holmen Industrial Area, Vesterålen, Norway

Industry, weather, landscape and nature: 4 rectangular structures housing a modern fishing facility of farming, trawling, processing and corporate HQ, arranged for specific purpose: to camouflage industrial traffic, protect from a severe winter climate and safeguard the landscape. A composition of necessarily functional, durable materials in surprisingly strong colours make this a beautiful addition rather than an interruption.
