Projects / Type / Competition / Inside All of Us is a Wild Thing

 

What I want to create is a Northern Lights observatory located in one of the most extreme latitudes inhabited by Man, surrounded by lush, endless forests and nature in its purest form. A place where one can retreat for a few days to completely disconnect from the daily routine and plunge headfirst into a world of observation, relaxation, and learning. Rovaniemi is the ideal location for such a project. Located in the icy curls of the Arctic Circle, this capital of the Finnish Lapland is not only the final stop north on the Finnish railway system, but is also the supposed hometown of Santa Claus! And best of all…the Northern Lights are visible in Rovaniemi up to 200 nights per year.
