The structure is made with a wave-like structure using concrete materials and it is elevated on nine columns. It rests on top of a hill in the village of Träslöv and it is built as a response to the increasing demands of water in the area which is a result of the growing population since the year 2000. The studio architect, Agnes Orstadius shares, "Våga holds a prominent place in the landscape, but the tower is also designed to be appreciated up close. Our ambition was to create a structure that will stand for centuries and always remain beautiful."
