Timber Twist, created by Ulf Mejergren Architects and Travis Child for the Tråkraft exhibition, draws inspiration from the Bagworm moth. Its design, resembling the larva’s case, serves as a metaphor for the protective yet limiting structures people build around themselves. The cabin features traditional timber techniques and a spiraling form made of aspen logs, inviting reflection on personal and societal frameworks that provide safety but can restrict exploration and growth. The work highlights the importance of examining the shells we create in our lives and the essence of home.
"These structures offer safety and identity, but can also limit us. Around us lies a vast world, physical and metaphorical, we may never fully explore unless we question our own shells."
