This studio rethought a much-loved genre of Hall: the park lodge, for times in which categories of wilderness, outdoor recreation, indigenous heritage, and modern forestry are very much in play.Although these tags have been designed more for branding than for reading, here is the basic idea. The project was a hostel and meeting hall for bicyclists. Located on the 65-mile Pine Creek Rail Trail, which is frequently considered one of the nation's top ten, and Inspired by the works of the Civilian Conservation Corps a century ago, which were especially concentrated on the environmental disaster zone of cut-over northern Pennsylvania, this was a remarkable post-naturalist site. Programmatically, the project contrasted the specifics of bunk rooms and food prep with the general, occasional, and unpredictable uses of a Hall.
