Trappuden Vindbåk stands adjacent to a scenic hiking trail on Trappudden in a coastal nature reserve. The land uplift is evident here – the shingle fields covered in beautiful ancient lichens. The structure is inspired by an old sea mark – a beacon. The top of the building is at about the same level as the sea was when the first people started to inhabit Holmön. Each division of the facade represents 100 years of land uplift. 

This is a look-out structure and a shelter for an overnight stay giving the travellers a cosy retreat with framed views towards Fjäderägg. The stone counterweights assist the users in interacting with the large opening hatch. To resist the harsh winds the structure reuses old metal hooks drilled in the stones that once supported a sea sign.

The structure is built by students from locally sourced and sawn timber under supervision of local carpenter and UMA teachers.
