Mythology-Inspired Theaters

'Klemet' is an Architectural Representation of Norwegian Legend

— December 13, 2013 — Eco
Local Norwegian architectural firm Bjørnådal Arkitektstudio has recently completed a design that features an environmentally friendly theater named 'Klemet' located in the valley of Hemnes in Norway; located far away from the hustle and bustle of urbanity. The outdoor theater obtained its name from a leader of spiritual influence and ancient hero of the fine arts called Klemet who was a powerful sami shaman that lived on the same land the theater was built on.

The 'Klemet' Environmental Theater is a tribute to the life of the urban legend. Through a display of architecture and performing arts, the outdoor theater represents Klemet's legacy by celebrating and remembering. The installation is made of recycled wood for two frame towers which are located near the border of the outer stage, designed to project light and sound onto the audience to represent the Shaman's drum sticks rising from the ground.
Trend Themes
1. Environmentally Friendly Theaters - Opportunity for theaters to prioritize sustainability and utilize recycled materials in their design and construction.
2. Architectural Representation of Legends - Potential for integrating architectural designs that pay homage to cultural legends and historical figures, creating immersive experiences for audiences.
3. Outdoor Theaters - Emerging trend of theaters moving beyond traditional indoor spaces and utilizing outdoor environments to enhance performances and create unique atmospheres.
Industry Implications

2. Performing Arts - Potential for theater companies to embrace outdoor spaces and incorporate mythology-inspired designs to enhance their performances and engage audiences in new ways.
3. Sustainable Construction - Opportunity for companies specializing in sustainable construction to partner with theaters and provide eco-friendly materials and solutions for their designs.
