Rintala Eggertsson Architects and Studio NN design Kalsholmen Safe House.
Rintala Eggertsson Architects and Studio NN have designed and built a safe house on the barren rock of Kalsholmen, off the coast of northern Norway. The safe house consists of four sleeping shelters and one sauna, all connected to form one protected space at the center. The construction is simple, consisting of only 2x3 and 2x8 wooden members, and is easy to maintain. The project was developed in a 2+2 week design and build workshop in collaboration with Studio NN in the early summer of 2021.
