Every design for Smestad

Smestad is a village of a little over three thousand people, and the hills around it carry names that could only belong here: Bestefarsberje, Frøkenberja, Flakberje, Hakkestensberj. Say them aloud and they sound like nowhere else.

On the map, Smestad sits among wooded heights. Fjerdingbyhøgda and Hansefellåsen rise nearby, Rælingen kirke stands a short way off, and Rælingen bygdetun keeps the old rural culture of the area. In the middle of it all is Hektnereika, an oak important enough to have a name of its own.

For anyone who grew up in Smestad, those are the landmarks that matter: the named oak, the church, the paths up the hills with their odd old names. That is home, drawn in lines.
