New Nordic Lab. / Hotel New Nordic

This project is for the new Nordic hotel and culinary laboratory on Sejerø, where is famous for the music festival and good weather, but unnoticeable about good farming.

It’s based on the manifesto translated from the New Nordic Kitchen Manifesto into a design language and developed into a whole architectural and experiential design.

Under this manifesto, like a creating new Nordic dish, I design this architecture using local materials, thinking about Nordic seasons and light and coexisting the new and old, Nordic and the world impulse.

The layers of architectural materials of wall make the adjustable interior environment and usages depending on a season.

And I also imagine this "new nordic" concept can be applied not to only at nordic area, but also on all over the world, like a new Arabic, a new African... if there is the food and culture, to find their own modern idea for the architecture.
