Camera Obscura - Cairngorms

The camera obscura at the Cairngorms, collaboration of architect Fergus Purdie and artist Arthur Watson, is an inspirational piece of architecture that has a significant relationship with it's immediate context. A building too bespoke would be a scar on the scenic mountainside, it is the rustic nature of the building that creates a relationship with the very harsh environment of the site.

Camera Obscura, Cairngorm Mountains-Scotland

The camera obscura has been designed and built by Architect Fergus Purdie and Artist Arthur Watson. The Dark Chamber sits at the foot of the Cairngorm mountain in the Scottish Highlands. The collaboration between the artist and architect sees a conglomeration of ideas sat within the harsh ever changing elements of the landscape.
