Nordic Waterscapes

The magazine takes a moment to reflect on the point of connection between water, architecture, and people. Spanning six Nordic countries, the nineteen projects featured in this issue explore diverse pursuits, from the rehabilitation of industrial ports into lively urban centres, to questions of accessibility and the extension of habitable space onto and into bodies of water. Examples such as Lonna Sauna in Helsinki by OOPEAA and Bademaschinen in Oslo by ACT! and Borhaven Arkitekter continue the region’s historical wellness practices, while urban-scale developments like Copenhagen’s Nordhavn by Cobe tackle the challenge of designing for a future marked by climate change.
