Can tradition shape modern spaces? Ravnkloa is a food court inspired by the vernacular typology Notheng, often called the coastal cathedral. These simple yet beautiful structures, once used by fishermen to hang their nets, also functioned as social spaces. The project’s essence lies in its construction, where assembly and joints rely on the force of gravity, making it adaptable for change and designed for disassembly.
