nice.. but kinda useless?
a wide deck with benches next to the lake will do the trick.

agree with Helen.

i will 100% love the structure if it was built over grand canyon/ niagara falls etc..

In the photos is not well shown, but the cantilever is over water, so this is the reason of it: the promoter wanted a viewing platform built as a tower, but it would be inadeaquated for the place; so, the project takes another direction and the viewing point grows from the building itself as its prolongation.

The wood is laminated fir and, in the cantilever, microlaminated fir, called “kerto”.

What a well executed piece of architecture!
Both the construction and drawing set are well done.
What kine of nordic wood is it?
I wish the concrete pedestal at Grid Line 26 is wood also.

Well done. The building is light-filled and warm, softly-hued and crisply executed in wood.

I don’t know. I don’t like this building or design. It seems that the architect just wanted to build a ridiculously long cantilever so that people hopefully will talk about it.
