Härden

LOCATION: SMEDSUDDEN, STOCKHOLM

STATUS: PROPOSAL

YEAR: 2023

BY: KOOSHA ATASHGARD

Härden envisions a platform for celebrations and traditions centered around the open fire—a universal symbol of connection, bridging Sweden's diverse cultures and traditions, from Valborg bonfires to Persian New Year.

It serves as a gathering point where ancient traditions can continue, be shared, and inspire one another, shaping a collective identity—a new folklore.

Härden is a central axis for cultures to revolve and evolve around. A hearth for the city.
