Loch on wood, Lochwinnoch, Scotland, by Dylan Baliski

How can our architecture be not just a response to humanity but also to the environment it sits in?

Loch on Wood explores this question through the eyes of the human and the bird. The bird’s migrational journey is translated into spatial sequences that shape how visitors navigate the building, informing visitors about the fauna on the site, as well as the rooftop circulation, which mirrors the interior circulation and offers elevated perspectives of the landscape. Throughout a visitor’s journey, they will be immersed in views of the loch, creating an outdoor connection and providing a nudge to further explore the area. Loch on Wood will provide birds a sanctuary to roam in while allowing people to engage in some of the best wildlife Scotland has to offer.
