AAB DEP. 55 CITY HOUSES

AAB DEP. 55 CITY HOUSES

City houses for AAB dep. 55, DOMUS Arkiteter, 2013.Responsibilities: form studies, design, drawings, 3D modelling

This design proposal for new passive city houses in Copenhagen incorporate sustainability, context and social relations between the neighbors.The houses are gathered together to minimise the exposed facades to reduce the heat loss. Shape of the houses and their windows are designed to provide optimal daylight conditions in the living units. The houses are placed so that neighbors can not look into each others homes, but at the same time neighbor enstrangement is prevented by facilitating encounters between neighbors as soon as they leave the door.Materials and size of the facades are made to blend into the context.The project was designed while employed at DOMUS Arkitekter in collaboration with one other archi-tect.

METRO STATION & OUTDOOR SPORTS CENTER, NORTH HARBOUR, COPENHAGEN


Thesis project, 5,000 m2, The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture, 2012.Responsibilities: individual thesis project, performing all phases of the project.

This was done by combining the future North Harbour subway station with an outdoor sports activity center. The goal was to facilitate a close contact between the nature, and the subway travellers coming from the city of Copenhagen, creating activity in the newly developed area in The North Harbour of Copenhagen.North Harbour Station is one of two designed metro stations in the thesis project “When the system meets the place, two metro stations in the future Copenhagen”.

METRO STATION & SCIENCE MUSEUM, AMORPARK STATION, COPENHAGEN UNIVERSITY


Thesis project, 6,000 m2, The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture, 2012.Responsibilities: individual thesis project, performing all phases of the project.

The vision of this thesis project was to create a metro station which function as a city gate and a gather-ing point for the neighborhood the station is placed in. In the Amorpark in Copenhagen this was done by combining the station’s function as a transporation hub, with a science museum that will communi-cate and showcase the great knowledge production, which takes place at the University area around the station. The aim of this was to facilitate knowledge sharing between the area’s various institutions, the travellers and the visitors. Amorpark Station is one of two designed metro stations in the final project “When the system meets the place, two metro stations in the future Copenhagen”.

HELSINKI PUBLIC LIBRARY


Competition design proposal, 12.000 m2, Burmeister Arkitekter, 2012.Responsibilities: involved in all phases of the project.

The building was designed so that it appears like a piece of wood that has been carved into a library.

Helsinki library was intended as a continuous sustainable construction. Sustainability is embedded in the building design, function, operation and demolition. Martin Vraa with a Ph.D. in sustainable ar-chitecture and Lyngkilde Engineers acted as consultants through the entire design process, looking at sustainability of the design.The construction is based on Finland’s tradition to build with local wood. Interior and exterior are constructed in the same type of wood. Aging of the building is embedded in the building design, as the exterior wooden facade will fade due to the harsh weather conditions and adjust to the colours in the area. The interior rooms and furniture will remain bright and friendly, as the tree here is protected.By using local wood as the primary building material the design aims at reducing CO2 emissions in the production of building materials and transportation of building materials. Local wood is also suitable for the Finnish climate and requires local Finnish building techniques, creating local labour.

The grid column construction and light interior timber walls makes it possible to change the organiza-tion of the activities in building. This allows the building to be flexible and enables adaptebility with regards to the spatial organization.The building’s structural columns and floor slabs are constructed in concrete for fire protection and stabilisation.

The library is naturally ventilated through four large ventilation shafts shown as large vertical cuts in the facade. The building entrances are located in the ventilation shafts, making them visible from the outside. The ventilation is controlled by a simple slat system.Solar panels on the roof of the building operates a hot-water pump in the basement, which optimizes the building’s energy consumption.

Upon demolition of the building, the building materials used can be easily recycled.

Ground planThe double height ground plan / library lobby is planned as an unheated area, that function as a transitional zone between the surroundings and the upper floors of the building. The glass facade of the entire lobby can be opened up during the summer, allowing the foyer to freely merge with the surrounding city and park.

Slats on the building’s windows makes it possible to individually control the light in the library’s upper rooms. The windows are placed in the facade, so they create optimal interior daylight for reading.Inner green courtyards function as light wells to the interior spaces as well as creates recreational spaces and im-proves the natural ventilation of the buildings interior.

DGI SPORTS CENTER VEJLE


Competition design proposals, 40,000 m2, COBE Architects, 2009. (2. prize).Responsibilities: concept development, research, sketching, form studies, plans and facade studies

This design proposal for the new DGI Sports Center combines renovation and new construction into one cohesive building complex.

This project proposes to wrap the existing buildings with the new additional features such as small training rooms, administration, classrooms, locker rooms etc.The added spaces around the halls are made in a transparent material which provides additional insulation as well as a greater degree of transparency of the existing building complex - displaying the activities taking place inside and outside the wrapped rooms.

A new health center and a new multi hall is added to the building complex as seperate new buildings.A climbing tower and a diving tower is placed in the center of the complex, allowing the users to experi-ence the building complex and the surrounding nature from above.

The hallway between the buildings is covered by a glass roof which serves as a semi heated ‘rambla’ where events and social activities can take place. The rambla binds all the buildings together and makes the whole building complex more energy ef-ficient.The entrances to the new complex are facing the different surrounding neighborhoods, inviting the citizens inside.

The outdoor spaces and parking spaces are designed to compliment the buildings form and functions.The sports center is located in a green park, and the design proposal aims to soften the transition between building and landscape by adding transparency, green roofs and green courtyards into the building complex, allowing nature to be a greater part of the interior sport activities. The glass roof of the rambla allows daylight into the entire complex, creating an open and transparent sports center.

The project was created during employment with COBE Architects in collaboration with four other architects.

VERTICAL GARDEN, JAPANESE CULTURE HOUSE IN SEATTLE


Studio project, 3.000 m2, University of Washington, 2009.Responsibilities: individual studio project, performing all phases of the project.

This studio project is a design proposal for a Japanese Culture House in Seattle, WA. The project is named Vertical Garden, since the building is constructed around large cherry trees, whose appear-ance constantly interact with the buildings interior and exterior.The building’s fluid transitions between inside and outside as well as the opportunity to experience the tree roots, trunks and crowns on different floors creates a dynamic building and a different experi-ence throughout the annual seasons and staging of nature. To move around in the building will be like climbing a tree.
