The most beautiful sheep stable in the world? Now that’s a sentence I never thought I’d write.
And yet…
What did I tell you. This Almere sheep stable, designed by 70f Architecture, was recently named the World’s Best Pleasure Building at the 2008 World Architecture Festival Awards. Wood cladding and construction, curved girders of steel, and lots of resting space for the 80 sheep of Almere. I don’t know about the sheep, but I might be interested in moving in.
70f designs many wonderful things. In fact, I had no intention of showing this sheep stable when I woke up today. I had another 70f in mind, but when I saw this I was sort of floored that people would take such care for an animal structure. You can visit 70f Architecture though and browse around or see more images of the sheep stable.
