这是一个游客中心公开竞赛的参赛方案，位于挪威西部风景秀丽的山岳之中，紧邻挪威保存最完好的古老木教堂之一。教堂在挪威是人们常常光顾的宗教圣地，为了不与教堂冲突，中心由四个语言各异的箱体建筑组成以便植入景观，同时与教堂产生对话。这些箱体对应着不同的功能：展览空间，大堂，政府办事处，郊区服务，又应对不同的主题：教堂，雪，山，天空。不同的材料选择也表明了他们之间功能的差异性，提高相互之间的独立感。

 

Elements is a Pilgrim Center located in a scenic mountain landscape in Western Norway. Elements is a visitors’ center in close connection to the wooden church, “Røldal stavkirke”, from the 13th century.  Røldal Stavkirke is one of the best preserved wooden churches in Norway and the church is the most frequent pilgrimage destination in the country. In order not to conflict with the church, the pilgrim center was fragmented into 4 boxes, stepping down into the landscape and given 4 completely different characters. The boxes are placed on the site so that they relate to the old church either by facing the latter or by creating outdoor space which is oriented towards it. 

The various boxes, comprising respectively Exhibition space, Lobby space, Administration offices and Parish house, relate to a specific element in the surroundings: the church, the snow, the mountains and the sky. The choice of materials reflects the difference in the contained functions and character of each box , enhancing them as a separate volumes in the landscape.
