The project is situated in the Norwegian archipelago: a site with potential for Unesco classification and which presently plays the role of a global commodity. Historically a place in constant adaptation, it is now facing accelerated de-inhabitation and potential rigid preservation regulations hindering future transformation. The project attempts to raise questions of what it means to be presenting a place in continuous transformation as a homogenous historic environment, and to put forward an alternative to contemporary preservation practice. The project suggests a superimposition of exposed services on a domestic family dwelling, as these services independently generate occasional situations or conditions. Proposed is not a counterforce to the prevailing de-inhabitation, but emphasizing the temporary condition of the islands.
