project: 4 decks
location: Sweden, Dorotea, Borgafjäll
year: 2025
status: completed
4 decks for cabin. Due to the significant height difference on the site, the design aims to create a structure that feels light, while still spanning a significantly longer distance than conventional deck design typically allows. The design was created parametrically using Grasshopper, with analysis conducted using Karmaba3D. Enabling a workflow where the designs are iterated through and rapid, automatic FEM-analysis guides the design decisions, all in real time.
