Forest Learning Hub
The Forest Learning Hub and visitor center in Hareskoven offers a wide range of different functions for the many visitors to visit the forest every year. The location of the building, on a hilltop in the middle of the beautiful beech forest has inspired this landscape-shaped building, carved out of forest floor blending into the surrounding landscape. The roof is imagined as an addition to the hill on which it is located, and gives visitors the opportunity to walk across the house and further into the forest. The star-shaped plan cuts straight through the hill leaving the central part of the building 1,5 meters below the forest floor.
