Behind the old concrete facade, they built an insulated two-storey timber structure. Corrugated aluminium zinc, which was also used as roofing, protects the new elements from the extreme weather conditions. The ground floor level is completely enclosed by the existing building. In order not to weaken the stability of the structure only two new openings were made in it. The former hay hatch on one gable end, now glazed, offers views of the landscape outside. Voids were made above the kitchen-dining area and above the studio, which is at the opposite end of the building. A rooflight in the studio provides neutral north light and ventilation. The floors on ground floor level are polished screed, all the built-in fittings are made from handstained plywood. The private spaces are on the upper floor, where the walls and floors are clad with white-stained pine boards. Here strip windows reveal a view across the fjord.
