The Kemeri Trinity observation tower is located in Kemeri National Park, which is known for its diverse natural landscapes, including forests and wetlands. The observation tower is designed to enhance the visitor experience by providing an elevated view of the park’s ecological features. The concept focuses on themes of reservation, conservation, and preservation, aiming to connect the built environment with the surrounding nature.

Design Concept

The design features a triangular shape that serves both functional and navigational purposes. This vertical structure aims to stand out within the landscape while guiding visitors as they move through the park. Circulation paths around the tower ensure that everyone, including those with mobility challenges, can access the observation platform by using a carefully designed ramp that leads up to it.

Interaction with Landscape

A key aspect of the design is the inclusion of an existing pine tree at the center. The tower's pathways wrap around this tree, illustrating respect for natural elements and strengthening the connection between people and nature. Nearby seating areas encourage visitors to take a break and enjoy their surroundings. Informative signboards provide educational experiences, offering details about the area’s ecology.

Material Selection

Locally sourced materials are a focus to reduce environmental impact. Pine wood is used for the railings and boardwalk, creating a visual harmony with the natural setting. Steel columns are integrated into the design for structural support, while concrete footings provide stability on the varied terrain of the park.

Observation Experience

The observation platform is designed for expansive views, giving visitors the chance to engage fully with the landscape. The height of the platform directs attention to the nature below, as well as to another observation tower nearby. This visual connection encourages exploration of the entire park.


The design strikes a balance between human presence and nature, as seen in the careful placement of seating areas that invite reflection and appreciation of the ecological significance of the surroundings.
