Abstract

This Master Thesis concerns a design of a Visitor Centre in Hareskoven Northwest of Copenhagen. The project is based on an assignment drawn by EFFEKT Architects in 2009. This is a presentation of investigations of nature in relation to culture today and a tectonic study. The studies have facilitated a design process and finally a building design. A discussion of how these parameters effects and stimulate the architecture is carried out. This thesis explores the meaning of nature today and how build and grown can interact through architectural affection. It is unfolded through the exploration on interaction between material, structures and direct context. The framing of nature becomes a key element in reaching this interaction through contrasting the nature.
