norwegian architectural phenomenon
Posted on July 2nd, 2009 No commentsthere is a strange phenomenon in Kilpisjärvi with primarily norwegians constructing a convenient vacation cottage:
1) rent for long term a camping wagon place with an electrical pole.
2) construct beside the electrical outlet pole a small hut, small enough that it does not need any licence or permission. the hut gets power from the electrical outlet.
3) bring your camping wagon and attach it to your hut.
4) now you have a nice, powered holiday hut in a perfect place.
Just for outsiders of this community (like me), this may look quite strange area of strangely-shaped miniture huts… I guess one could consider it modular or nomadic architecture (sounds better at least).
note: the importance of the electrical pole!
