Today\u2019s society is a flurry of communication, constant noise and accessibility requirements. To contrast with this, we need environments that allow for deeper reflection and new meetings.<\/p>\n

This initiative aims to create a welcoming meeting place and working retreat for researchers and scientists from all disciplines, as well as artists, writers and others requiring reflective space. By bringing together those active in the Nordic countries, our aim is to strengthen historical ties and establish new contacts.<\/p>\n

Once this initiative is fully operational, guest residents will stay for one to three weeks for up to three periods annually. This project is supported by the non-profit association, Drakam\u00f6llans V\u00e4nner f\u00f6r Kultur och Vetenskap.<\/p>\n

Source of creative power<\/h3>\n

Drakam\u00f6llan offers the ideal setting for anyone who needs to focus on an important project, break new ground, complete a task or generally be productive in an environment that promotes creative thinking and reflection. Here you will feel culture in the walls and energy in the ambience. The rolling moors of \u00d6sterlen interspersed with beech forests, the atmospheric light of the Baltic coast with its endless sandy beaches \u2013 it\u2019s a magical natural experience inviting inspiration and recovery.<\/p>\n

Seclusion with community<\/h3>\n

The manor house offers comfortable accommodation for eight to ten people, with a designated space for working undisturbed. But when you need a break, the common areas are ideal for social interaction in large or small groups.<\/p>\n

An important part of your stay will be meals together. Every day, breakfast, lunch and dinner is on offer. In particular, evening meals are intended as a time for getting together, a time for everyone to enjoy an exciting dining experience based on local produce prepared with love and care. At the table discussions flow \u2013 no subject is too big or too small to engage in. This sparks a cross-fertilization of ideas and knowledge that can lead to exciting networks and build bridges across national, professional and disciplinary boundaries.<\/p>\n
