Dutch studio Next architect Watchtower Inderaide has completed, wood friendly wood Look out In Netherlands With a curved cut-out that reveals a spiral ladder.
Next architectWhich is the offices in Amsterdam and China, completed the tower as one lookout point For tourists on a network of cycling and moving footpaths in the einderhide forest near the Belgium border.
The ambition of the studio was to construct a 26-meter-Lumba tower, when the tests suggest that visiting the height will allow visitors to peep on the wooden area treats, known as the Kempane.
The studio decided to include houses for tree-niwas bats in the structure, located on a flight path for winged mammals.
“This tower is as much for animals as it is for people, Next Architects Partner Michelle Sherrenmacators said.
“In addition to the scene of the environment, the wooden lookout tower is equipped with summer and winter shelters for bats.”
The structure is made of laminated dougus cedar columns and the thermally modified pine that protects the lookout from the weather. At its core is a steel spiral ladder that leads visitors to three levels.
The simple form of the tower is broken with voids that are taken out of its mask and highlights its construction. The next architects made them with cut-out with curved beams to provide different views in the forest.
“We built various levels in the tower to detect and experience the forest at various heights providing visuals in different directions,” Schreinemachers said.
“The path itself became a tour.”
Due to the poor access of the site and limited space between trees, the tower was prepared with the prefabricated structure in a workshop and aspect panels assembled on the site.
The stability of the tower comes from the support columns of L-shaped in each corner, and three wind trasts, two closed aspects from two foundations to the roof and in an open mask.
Developed for the project by ecologist Zero Moss, Bat Rosts are integrated into the tower and excluded at heights of five, 10 and 15 meters, with batting boxes mimic the hollow of the tree laid behind them.
The rough protected pine of the tower gives a good grip to bats so that they can get down and crawl.
Below the tower, the base of the tower is made of concrete and includes a bat seller where the animals can hide and hibernate in the cold winter months.
The Watchtower Enderide, designed in collaboration with WSP, MOS ecological advice and research, and H+N+S Landscape Architects, a new road between Belgium border and Weldhowen, one of the many structures and attractions manufactured with N69.
The tower was commissioned by the municipality of Bargezac with the support of North Brabant and main road contractor Bosqualis province.
The next architects have created several projects designed to accommodate bat species, including Bat Bridge In the city of monster.
Projects that include animal houses are included Spanish Studio Temperturus Extrimus Bird and Mamed Shelter and Water ReservoirWhich was designed to camouflage with trees in a forest in Luxembourg and Danish Architecture Studio Big Biosphere Treehouse at Swedish LaplandWhich is surrounded by birdhouse.
