Description
- Based on a master plan to transform 'Havneholmen' from a commercial harbor to an integrated housing and industrial area.
- Two U-shaped blocks with inner courts, totaling 236 residences, are strategically positioned for optimal daylight, views, and outdoor access.
- Varying building heights (5 to 8 stories) diminish the large-scale appearance.
- Bright facades with glass sections and white thermal plaster create a light, slender, and maritime aesthetic.
- Monolithic unity is achieved with bay windows and balconies, emphasizing a harmonious visual appeal.
- 'Havneholmen' translates to 'harbor + islet,' formerly an industrial landfill and coal landing site.
- Evolution from a fish market to the present 'Fisketorvet' shopping mall.
- Canal development symbolizes a shift from theoretical urban planning to pragmatic and profitable approaches.
- Recognition of water's attractiveness and value in urban development.
- Masterplan proposes narrow canals, promising a charming atmosphere and returns on investments.
- Rapid transformation from a polluted workspace to an appealing and profitable waterfront.
- Acknowledges cultural nuances in sharing spaces and respecting privacy.
- Invites visitors to explore inner courtyards while emphasizing the importance of discretion.
- Balances the charm of shared spaces with the need for privacy in a diverse cultural context.
