A network of interventions to enhance local identity





Through the introduction of new landscaped routes, boathouses, lookouts, cemetery, stage and Folkets Hus, the landscape is framed and protected from other development. All the proposed elements are reinterpretations of local symbols rather than unfamiliar, new ideas, and embrace Fjällbacka's physical and cultural heritage.

The network of proposals seeks to "provide a new channel for local history and culture", a need highlighted by the locals during the November trip.

The dual lookouts and cemeteries serve to visually link the mountain of Kvarnberget to the island of Kråkholmen, extending the perceived public space to the sea and archipelago.
