Varden餐厅（”The Cairn”）就坐落在森林变成开阔的风吹草动的山地高原的树线上。该餐厅位于挪威山地景观中心的奥运村Kvitfjell，为游客提供了360度的大视野。客人通常由高山和越野滑雪者组成，他们寻求避开风雪，或者只是在继续冒险前找一个阳光明媚的地方享用美食。

Right on the tree line, where the forest becomes an open wind-swept mountain plateau, lies Varden restaurant (“The Cairn”). Situated in the Olympic village of Kvitfjell, in the heart of the Norwegian mountain landscape, the restaurant offers a grand 360-degree view for its visitors. The clientele usually consists of alpine and cross-country skiers seeking refuge from the wind and snow, or just a nice sunny spot to enjoy a good meal before continuing their adventures.

受附近传统农庄的影响，这里有一小群建筑，它们之间的距离近在咫尺，既能遮挡风雪，又能欣赏到最佳的风景。其中两栋建筑已经建成，每栋建筑都有自己的特色和方向性。这个建筑群还有待第三栋建筑来完成，最终完成遮挡的户外空间。在当地传统的基础上，餐厅内外均由木材建造和包覆，顶部为草屋顶。

Influenced by traditional farms in the vicinity, a small cluster of buildings, so close they are almost touching, provide shelter from the wind and snow while remaining open towards the best views. Two of the buildings are already constructed, each with its own character and directionality. The cluster is yet to be completed by a third building, finalising the sheltered outdoor space. Building on local traditions, the restaurant is constructed and clad in timber inside and outside and topped with a grass roof.

木材覆面经过精心设计，有各种图案和连接。这些天然材料具有高度的可持续性，并提供了一个低碳足迹，同时也确保了令人向往的山地氛围的保持。在室内装修方面，我们非常荣幸地设计了定制的家具作品，如壁炉、酒吧柜台和餐厅桌子，都是用大量的橡木制成。

The timber cladding is carefully detailed with a variety of patterns and connections. These natural materials are highly sustainable and provide a low carbon footprint, while also ensuring that the much-desired mountain atmosphere is maintained. For the interiors, we had the great pleasure of designing bespoke furniture pieces like the fireplace, bar counter, and restaurant tables in massive oak.

壁炉是挪威山地木屋的一个重要特征，它为Varden带来了友好、熟悉的感觉。它是朋友和家人的聚会场所，在这里，朋友和家人在霜冻的冒险之后，可以惬意地观看火焰和取暖。灯光、家具和其他设计元素都经过精心挑选，与定制作品相得益彰，增添了这里的独特个性。建筑和室内设计围绕着餐厅的体验打造了一个休闲的框架，食客们聚集在这里，免受风雨的侵袭。

The fireplace is an important feature in Norwegian mountain cabins and lends to the friendly, familiar feel of Varden. It is a gathering place where friends and families cozy up to watch the flames and warm up after frosty adventures. Lighting, furniture, and other design elements were meticulously chosen to complement the bespoke pieces and add to the unique character of the place. The building and interiors are designed to create a casual frame around the restaurant experience, where diners are gathered and protected from the elements.
