Roadside Reststop Akkarvikodden, Lofoten, Norway
HISTORY OF COMISSION
Manthey Kula Architects

The project is situated in Lofoten, along one of the National Tourist Routes in Norway. There are eighteen such routes in Norway, all chosen for their spectacular and characteristic landscape. The facilities for the tourists that drive along these roads; such as rest stops, viewing platforms and links to local points of interest are carried out by architects and landscape architects with the purpose of offering an experience of both nature and design. By now 6 routes already have Tourist Routes status and 12 more are in the planning. The project will be finished by 2016. The Roadside Toilet Facility at Akkarvikodden is built in connection with existing rest stop designed by landscape architect Inge Dahlmann/Landskapsfabrikken. The commission given to Manthey Kula was to design a toilet facility that could replace an existing structure that had been lifted off its foundations by the strong winds from the Atlantic Ocean. Lofoten is located at the 67th and 68th parallels north of the Arctic Circle in North Norway. The site for the project is extraordinary. The road runs on a narrow plateau between the mountains and the sea. Were the rest stop is the plateau widens out and one experience entering a space between the mountains from where the view to the horizon is very powerful. The design had two aims. One was to make the small building very heavy so it would not be lifted off ground. The other was to make interiors that shut the scenery out. The first objective was of course very pragmatic, a direct response to the history of the building’s predecessor. The other objective was more obscure. The experience of the place, mountains and sea and the ever-present coastal climate is very intense. The restrooms were conceived to present a pause from the impressions of the surrounding nature, offering an experience of different sensuous qualities. The rest room is open only during summer season thus the building did not have to be insulated. Initially it was planned in concrete. However, after having checked the work of some local mechanical industries the designed changed to a body of welded plates. The structure of the small building is not unlike the structure of a ship: welded steel plates locally reinforced with steel flanges – every part specially designed for its specific use. The foundation and the two walls that supports the stainless steel sanitary equipment are cast concrete. Glass panes are 12 and 20mm thick. Doors are built in 5 mm stainless steel plates. Walls and roof are made of 10mm corteen steel. To prevent rust from discoloring the clothes of the visitors parts of the walls are lined with glass panels. In the smallest rest room one glass panel is mounted in the ceiling. In this panel one can see the reflection of the horizon.

这是位于挪威18条旅游线路之一罗弗敦的一个小型公厕。在壮丽的，有意思的景色边上，往往会设置一些休息站，观景平台。目前已在6条路上规划了12个，这些项目将在2016完成。因为以前的厕所被风吹到，现在这个新厕所修建得非常坚固，可以抵御来自大西洋的强风。外表皮的10mm耐候钢板被整体浇筑在混凝土地基上，再用其它钢板焊接加固，非常稳固。

项目的场地非常漂亮，山海之间狭窄却掠人心魄的场地之上立着这样一个沉稳厚实的小楼，小楼与自然形成强烈对比，也为游人提供一个回应原场地历史，带来观感不同享受的体验。透过12-20mm厚的方格窗以及5mm的不锈钢门，人们可以看见山脉雄浑的气势。部分房间只在夏季开放。室内墙面贴了一层玻璃板，能避免锈蚀钢板的锈迹弄脏游人的衣服。
