Nomadic is a woodland observatory and hybrid habitat, designed for visitors to explore the forest, share stories, and create new myths. The structure encourages engagement with both nature and imagination.
Positioned at the edge of the forest, Nomadic interacts with its surroundings while maintaining a light ecological footprint.
Concept: Myth, Storytelling, and Place
The observatory is designed as a giant wooden creature, providing a unique space for storytelling. Its presence transforms the woodland into a site where new myths can emerge.
Visitors experience the observatory as both a place of retreat and interaction, blending natural observation with playful, narrative exploration.
Design Approach
- Timber construction for sustainability and low environmental impact
- Minimal ground contact to preserve natural terrain
- Modular and relocatable: the structure can be dismantled and reassembled elsewhere
- Evokes a surreal presence in the forest, harmonizing with wildlife and mythological imagination
The observatory will stand on four legs, appearing as if slowly roaming the woodland. Its design balances fanciful storytelling and practical observation, inviting curiosity and interaction from all ages.
