INFORMATION. ARCHITECTS> OFIS ARCHITECTS AND AKT II, IN Alpine Shelter COLLABORATION WITH STUDENTS AT HARVARD UNIVERSITY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF DESIGN, FREEAPPROVED Skuta AND PD LJUBLJANA MATICA // 2015. SHELTER> 12 SQM // 12 GUESTS. ADDRESS> MOUNTAIN SKUTA, MOUNTAIN SKUTA, SLOVENIA ZGORNJE JEZERSKO, SLOVENIA. WWW.PD-LJMATICA.SI/CABINS/108/ BIVAK-POD-SKUTO-NA-MALIH-PODIH The project developed from an ar- chitectural design studio at the Har- vard Graduate School of Design led by Rok Oman and Spela Videcnik from OFIS. In 2014, thirteen students were asked to design an innovative yet practical shelter to meet the needs of the extreme alpine climate. Inspired by the vernacular architec- ture of Slovenia with its rich archi- tectural heritage, their proposals, addressing various site conditions, material considerations, and pro- grammatic issues, were produced and cataloged. The bivouac represents a basic human necessity, a shelter. The outer form and choice of materials respond to the extreme mountain conditions, and also provide views of the magnificent landscape. Its position in the wilderness demands respect for natural re- sources, therefore the shelter had to be firmly anchored to the ground with minimal impact. The interior design is modest, subordinate to the function of the shelter providing accommodation for up to eight mountaineers. Interior view of the timber structure and benches. Exterior side view.
