After trying her hand at dog sledding, Mariella takes a break. Photograph: Observer The only sound as I slide along is the whoosh of metal blades on ice and the panting of the huskies. In every direction stretches a dazzling canvas of snow and pine with not a sign of habitation. We are intruders in this winterscape. Johan, the owner of the dog-sledding outfit, is our outrider, leading the way, surefooted as a deer as he careers ahead. Negotiating the bends between tree trunks at breakneck speed without the sleigh toppling brings shrieks of delight from the children. Three hours’ flight...

What do you do if you want to design an iconic building – a concept which for at least a decade has been declared terminally ill – that is not an icon? What if you are Bjarke Ingels, a walking whoosh of brilliance, ambition and salesmanship dulled only very slightly by near-permanent jet lag, who is currently sweeping the world of architecture in a way few 39-year-olds have managed before? Who, with this project, is returning to his (careful, thoughtful) homeland of Denmark on a site patrolled – as if by cultural drones – not only by history, but also by the greatest work of literature of all...
