Offener Ideenwettbewerb
Wettbewerbsaufgabe
Silent Meditation Forest Cabins ist ein offener internationaler Wettbewerb für eine Reihe von netzfernen Meditationskabinen im ländlichen Lettland. Er wird in Zusammenarbeit mit Ozolini organisiert, einem lettischen Teeunternehmen, das auf Generationen von Wissen und Erfahrung zurückgreifen kann, um einzigartige Mischungen von Kräutertees herzustellen, und seinen Betrieb für Ökotouristen als meditativen Rückzugsort öffnet.
Die Gewinnervorschläge werden für die Konstruktion berücksichtigt, und die Entwürfe für die Silent Meditation Forest Cabins wurden vor allem gebeten, sich auf umweltfreundliche und kostengünstige Bautechniken zu konzentrieren, die Modelle für eines der umweltfreundlichsten Länder Europas sind.

The Silent Meditation Forest Cabins competition is an open international contest for a series of off-the-grid meditation cabins in rural Latvia. It is organised in collaboration with Ozolini, a Latvian tea company which draws on generations of knowledge and experience to create unique mixtures of herbal teas, and which opens its farm to eco-tourists as a meditative retreat.
The winning proposals will be considered for construction, and designs for the Silent Meditation Forest Cabins were above all asked to focus on eco-friendly and cost-effective building techniques, to be models for one of Europe’s greenest countries.

In collaboration with Ozolini Teamakers,
run by Brigita and Dima Lukini from Riga, Latvia
Competition Assignment
Silent meditation techniques are used to calm the mind and enhance concentration. Often referred to as Vipassana - which means viewing things just as they are - this type of meditation can be both extremely challenging and rewarding. Retreating from vocal communication, technology, and even eye contact, requires a great deal of commitment and mental strength. However, it can also be a profound and life-changing experience.
The Silent Meditation Forest Cabins is a collaboration with Ozolini Teamakers, run by Brigita and Dima Lukini from Riga, Latvia. Drawing on generations of knowledge and experience with herbs and tea-making, the couple create mixtures of herbal teas for everyday life to offer to city-dwellers. With millennials beginning to find their way back to the countryside and craving a connection to nature, Ozolini is opening its doors to the like-minded individuals who look to reflect on their own experiences through meditation and retreat into the wilderness.
The competition participants are asked to create designs for a cabin that could be replicated in any number of spots throughout the forest. The cabin’s main purpose is to help guests enjoy silent meditation, where the only sounds they would hear would be the sounds of nature. The silent meditation cabins would need to be able to accommodate just a single person, and offer them basic and humble living conditions.
With competition winners being put forward for consideration for construction, designs for the the Silent Meditation Forest Cabins should focus on eco-friendly and cost-effective building techniques. As Latvia has a reputation as one of Europe’s greenest countries, the structure should have the potential to become a regional example of green building practice.
