COmmunity
The remote-working community of Lofoten is already well-established, and has for centuries been a place for inspiration-seekers due to it's amazing natural beauty. Lofoten´s amazing and remote nature attracts like-minded people in a fascinating way. The amazing contrasts of winter vs summer is a truly staggering experience. With warm summers bathed in sun 24-hours a day and cold, snowy winters where the Northern Lights dance across the dark sky. Living in the Arctic is a once in a lifetime experience.

The WORK space
|
The house is designed for communal coworking and coliving with a big kitchen and lounge, a separate office space and a phonebooth.
The office space is a quiet area with comfy chairs and lightning fast wifi. Daylight fills the rooms throughout the day and the northern lights in the night time. Wether you are a social or solitary worker you will find a suitable place to slam out some work. |
|
THE PHONE & RECORDING BOOTH
Our small stand-up phone booth makes a perfect environment for short and effective phone-calls, and to record quality audio. Benefits of working here in the summer: Being able to spend the whole day working on your project not having to worry about the sun going down is an underrated freedom. Benefits of working here in winter: You will hardly find a cosier workspace. Make a cup of coffee and look out on the snowy mountains, and in the evening you can go searching for the Northern Lights. |

The SURF
|
The coliving space is located just a quick 5-minute drive from Norway´s premium surf spot, Unstad.
Mild summers offers midnight sunshine and perfect beginner/intermediate waves. Surfing at 1 in the morning is the way to go to avoid crowds. The rest of the year is raw, cold and heavy. If you are hoping to score perfect uncrowded waves - fall and winter is the best. Local hosts Rolf and Stian will help you make sense of Lofotens complicated coastline to score the wave of your life. |
BeginnersUnstad has two surf schools available, and standing on a surfboard for the first time in Lofoten is awesome. You can even try surfing in the winter - as the rental wetsuits are of top quality.
Learning to surf in an arctic winter qualifies for bragging rights for the rest of your surfing career. |
IntermediatesWant to catch your first green wave, or are you already riding all the waves?
The beach break of Unstad is always a nice place to catch green waves easy. |
AdvancedAre you one hot rippah? One bad shredder yeah?
Then you are probably ready to check the point-breaks of Unstad! There is a left and right point break in the bay - working on different tides and swells. Does get rocky and heavy so watch out! |

Other arrivals are Bodø, Svolvær and Evenes. Leknes is the closest airport, but Evenes is generally the cheapest alternative, although it requires a 3 hour bus ride to get to the house
