This Two-Story Tent From Bjarke Ingels and Nokken Takes Glamping to New Heights

by

As a seasoned gamer and avid camper, I find myself often dreaming of a perfect blend of technology, design, and nature – a sanctuary that transcends the digital realm into reality. The NKN-Softshell tent designed by Nokken and Bjarke Ingels Group seems to have struck the right chord in my adventurous heart.

The images you see might appear as if they were conceived using artificial intelligence-driven image creators such as Midjourney; however, they depict a genuine tent designed by the hospitality company Nokken in collaboration with the globally acclaimed Bjarke Ingels Group.

The NKN-Softshell is a tent design offering a two-story layout, ideal for upscale camping sites, eco-resorts, and exclusive hospitality venues. This 195 square foot softshell construction offers a sustainable yet stylish solution for eco-friendly hospitality establishments.

The sturdy wooden frame and base serve as the base, upon which a fabric canvas is stretched, creating a graceful A-frame structure that evokes images of classic cabins. From $22,500 USD, buyers have the option to enhance their purchase with extra features such as a cargo net, ladder, and bedhead for added convenience.

Despite being priced at five digits, the design could be considered one of the most affordable among Bjarke Ingels’ architectural creations. Known for undertaking massive projects, such as the upcoming “Freedom Plaza” in New York City and their new waterfront headquarters in Copenhagen, this Danish architecture firm typically works on a grand scale.

Pre-orders are open now on the official Nokken website for the upcoming NKN-Softshell, set to arrive in summer 2025.
