Lokal Natur Project
Koncept
My aim with this project was to design a concept for creating a stronger connection between humans and nature. My solution was to design a concept where families with children could experience the local nature through the eyes of a local guide. My target area was Middelfart Municipality and my target group was families with children vacationing at camping spots in the area.
My inspiration for the project came from going on a walk with my boyfriends dad Kim in the forest he played in as a kid. On the walk he told us amazing stories about the history of the area, as well as tall tales (røverhistorier as they are called in danish) from his childhood. That day I experienced the forest through his eyes, and thus I felt a stronger connection to that little part of nature.​​​​​​​

Here stand the married couple (ægteparret) as Kim calls them. He tells us it has always been the name of the two trees, also when he was a child. "How they got that name" he follows "is based on a story of growing together. The two trees are approximately the same age. A beech and an oak that has been growing side by side for hundrets of years. After all those years together, even their roots have entangled, making them as one."
