disassembly

4 months to build it and 1 week to disassemble it! Walls and ceiling modules are gone and soon also the deck will leave the construction site. Many working nights but at least spring has come to Sweden!

building halo part one

The construction of Halo has started and is going well: the floor modules are done. It has been hard and tiring to build with our unexperienced hands but also exciting and inspiring to see our 2 years efforts finally shaping!
