Summary
Dum-Dum Lab's Troya Viewpoint is a modest timber structure (6.8m x 6.9m x 5.8m) built beside Laguna Troya in Calbuco, Chile. Completed in 2026 with support from Fondart Artistic Creation 2025, the small waterside platform serves as both an architectural lookout and an ecological learning space, offering visitors a collective viewing point over the lagoon while keeping the surrounding vegetation and birdlife close to the experience.
