The Bolder Sky Lodges are throned on a single steel column to minimize the landscape footprint. The twin-level cubes, wrapped in cedar wood, with floor-to-ceiling glazing provide unparalleled views over Norway's Lysefjord.

The Sky Lodges have a 22m² living area which includes a kitchen, dining area, two bedrooms and a bathroom. With so many windows a major consideration was how to protect the interior from high levels of solar radiation. The solution was found in the SG 4960 motorised roller blind system with Basicscreen 10%. This screen fabric provides the necessary UV protection without obscuring the breathtaking view, whilst simultaneously providing a layer of internal insulation against the cold air flow associated with such large glazed areas. The dining room Wave curtain in Someo fabric adds ambience and decoration.
