In 2012, @tegnestuenvandkunsten won the competition to design a summer house that interprets the old traditional seaweed houses – and adapts to the natural terrain with a modern vacation home.
The Modern Seaweed House became an experimental construction. The house provides an example of how one can use eelgrass as a building material in a modern way that respects the local building tradition. Here, the material's visual language is explored, and the house is constructed in close collaboration with local expertise.
