      Product design by Jean Nouvel: small architectures for interiors

      The Arctic Hideaway, Norway

      Born from a concept by jazz musician Håvard Lund, who bought the site in 2004, The Arctic Hideaway in Norway is a workspace offering musicians, artists and creatives the possibility of renting rooms and mono-functional houses to work, but above all to "rest and reset". The project was realised by TYIN tegnestue Architects in collaboration with Rintala Eggertsson Architects. The two studios worked together with Håvard Lund, students and volunteers to create what has become a small village in the magical setting of the Arctic.
