This week I started my internship at April and May, and I am very much looking forward to posting about things that inspire me to this blog! When I saw the beautiful images of the The Bolder Sky Lodges my mind immediately started wandering of to these creations high above Norway’s Lysefjord. It really makes you want to spend time in these beautiful interiors surrounded by a breathtaking winter wonderland. The dark colours that are applied throughout the interior give the space a cozy feel, perfect for a relaxing winter getaway don’t you think? - Joia

Two one-legged cabins float high above Norway’s Lysefjord. These fully equipped, compact accommodations known as The Bolder Sky Lodges have been ranged by Forbes Magazine as one of the world’s 25 surprising places to sleep. And with views from this breathtaking vantage point, you are as close to sleeping in the clouds as you will ever get.

In 2010, Tom Norland bought 170 hectares of untouched land with unspoiled view. Initially, his plan was to build a series of smaller hermit huts, but he realized that this nature plot deserved something better. Something daring.

"Vipp has a timeless and honest elegance combined with solid and functional refinement, which is of great importance when you have guests everyday. This aesthetic fits well with our koncept of architecture in nature", explains Tom Norland.

The Sky Lodges measure 22 square meters of living space and include kitchen and dining space, two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The interior is carefully curated to harmonise with the view: dark oak ceiling and walls, concrete flooring and a dark-toned décor dominates the space. Tom Norland chose the Danish design company Vipp for its timeless and functional design. The shop, Elements Studio in Norway has provided the interior from Vipp ranging from kitchen, furniture and lighting to tableware and accessories.

“My intention was to give visitors a front row view to one of the best-known fjords in the world. The border between inside and outside had to be blurred to convey the feeling of floating in nature”,says Tom Norland.
