Mirage Dancehall Falsterbo
When designing we always work with our manifesto which puts focus on people, needs and context. In special projects we write several short stories describing what could take place in the building. In the Mirage project it was important to connect the conservative and historical mindset of the community of Falsterbro with the new ideas and visions that attracts young people from all over Europe to visit the area during the summer months.
