Introduction

Access to the teaching kitchen takes one through a winding path, across fi elds and through a forest. The building sits at a sharp bend in the river which is prone to fl ooding and ice jams.

In the summer the building opens up to the river, the basement level hosts food stalls for canoers or beach- goers. The upper level boasts a greenhouse and apartment for a visiting teacher.

In the winter, the greenhouse space becomes an observatory for the dazzling northern lights. An exterior fi replace in the courtyard creates a warm outdoor space and covered nooks shelter snowmobiles and sleds from the falling . Throughout all seasons, this building engages the landscape and its changes. Page 29 | Shell Laura Langridge -4420098 Ivalo RiverSandbanks
