Appreciation towards CODE arkitektur for providing the following description:

这个名为Utsikten的小场地位于延绵的Gaular山脉中，是挪威西海岸之路上一个天然的停车眺望点。经过长途跋涉、徒步穿越群山的人们来到这里，被眼前壮丽的起伏山脉所震撼。而对于驾驶着车辆一路向上的人们来说，这里则是回望他们所路过一系列惊险的发夹弯的最佳场所。

The site is known as Utsikten (“The View”) and is a natural place to stop when driving over the Gaular mountain along the western coast of Norway. For those who have made the trek over the mountain itself, the site affords a sudden and surprising vista overlooking a majestic landscape. Conversely, for those driving up from below, Utsikten constitutes the ever visible apex of the ascent rising up through a series of hairpin bends.

来自CODE事务所的建筑师在路旁搭建起一个巨大的三角混凝土平台。平台的三个尖角如同羽翼般向上扬起，让80公分的厚重体量也仿佛轻盈而舒展。混凝土平台的安放角度经过了精心设计，车辆可顺着道路前行，停放至紧邻着眺望台的地方，而游客们则可以自由的在三个尖角中穿行，或上、或下，全方位地欣赏着壮美的群山。

CODE’s project at Utsikten is a large, triangular concrete platform situated right at the side of the road. The platform is 80 cm thick but appears to rest lightly atop the terrain with raised, wing‐like corners that protrude outwards and upwards into the air. Similar to how a picnic blanket is neatly arranged in order to create the proper setting for a meal, the concrete platform at Utsikten has been developed to create the proper setting for the entire stopover. The cars drive all the way up to the outlook, and visitors can move around between the corners to experience the spectacular scenery from various angles.

巨大的混凝土平台耸立在延绵的群山之中，材料与建造技艺的选择低调粗犷，而独树一帜的造型极富几何的美感。随着时间的流逝，植被将会慢慢覆盖在平台之上，恍如自然山体的一部分。由粗钢管支撑的扶手顺着平台的边缘而立，通透的铁网在保证安全的同时丝毫没有遮挡视线。 混凝土的表面经过了碾磨、抛光、喷砂或封装，建筑的形态和分区也因而更为明确。平台经过了切割，留出了可供站立、小坐的位置，通往卫生间和山坡的门洞，以及供雨水流出的泄水口。而在雨天，这些飞扬的尖角又成为了可供人们临时容身，躲避风雨的小场所。

The finished platform appears as an independent, geometric, and precise object in the landscape. The materials and technology are familiar and robust, while it is the shape itself that is spectacular. Over time the concrete will acquire natural vegetation and its colour will approximate that of the surrounding mountainsides. The rails have been made from thick steel pipes as a visually conspicuous seam along the platform’s edges and reliefs, with outstretched nets that are more or less transparent. The concrete includes surfaces that have been milled, honed, sandblasted or board‐ sheathed in order to accentuate the platform’s shape and zonal divisions. The raised corners contain holes and reliefs that provide sitting and standing room, access to the restrooms, and egresses to the terrain, or that serve as an outlet for the rainwater amassed at the platform. During rainy weather it is also possible to seek shelter beneath these corners.

为了找到设计方案的这一最佳角度，挖掘出场地所有的美，建筑师动用了吊车和绳索，在场地中搭建出全尺度的概念模型。而设计方案也在一次次的模型中愈发的完善，直到变成电脑模型、图纸和最终的落成方案。

In order to ensure the optimal placement for the finished project and exploit the site’s various qualities, the architects sketched the concept at full scale at the site itself. With the aid of a crane and ropes, the structure was constructed as a wire model over several rounds before finally being transferred into a 3D model, drawings, and the finished product.

不便的山地区位、复杂的几何造型以及对质量的极致追求让整个建造过程变得极具挑战性。为了做好完全的准备工作，各单位共同参与到了一个建造演练中，确保各方对最终的建造达成共识，同时也确定建造方式的正确性。

The work on the concrete construction proved to be quite challenging because of the mountain’s location, the complex geometry, and the high demands to quality. In order to be as prepared as possible, the various actors involved in the construction project first participated in a trial construction of large sections of the platform in order to make common experiences and quality assure the given choices and approaches.
