[Tuesday 25th January]

I was interesting in theirs project which has each stories. One of the project is 'Freya & Robin' at Kielder Water. " Once upon a time, Freya and Robin lived on opposite of a lake. Freya fell in love with Robin when she saw him from across the water and decided to built him a cabin to match his love of the woods."
The lakeside shelters are inspired by this story. Theirs aim is to create place through exploring the narratives of space. It was very unique and unusual approch. They have used the stories to create design concept and personify design even though it is fictional characters.
