The Field House, a project by Lookofsky Architecture completed in 2020 on the Swedish island of Fårö, is a contemporary take on the area's traditional fishermen's huts and farmhouses. Instead of a single, large structure, the design is composed of several small, interconnected timber volumes, each with a distinct purpose, such as a bedroom unit, a communal living area, or a reading room. This clustered arrangement is a modern interpretation of local settlement patterns and allows for flexible expansion with additional units in the future. The house stands on a continuous concrete platform that also serves as the interior flooring, echoing Gotland's characteristic limestone bedrock. The exterior is clad in solid larch wood boards, a regional tradition, which will naturally weather from a golden brown to a silver-grey color over time. Inside, the walls are covered in birch plywood, which provides a warm and inviting contrast to the bare concrete floor. The interiors are characterized by an austere minimalism, with storage and furniture seamlessly integrated into the walls to emphasize the simple intersecting surfaces. Large, frameless windows and a sliding door create carefully framed views of the surrounding field, fostering a sense of continuity between the house and the natural landscape.
