Description

    Design Concept: 

  • Visionary residential quarter in central Örebro built in solid timber. 
  • Focuses on integrating nature into the urban landscape. 
  • Timber Construction: 

  • Multiple apartment buildings of varying heights with solid timber frame structures. 
  • Timber is chosen for its renewable nature, low energy consumption, and limited carbon footprint. 
  • Integration with City Park: 

  • Residential buildings interact with the urban city park, Ängen (The Meadow). 
  • The park features various activities and plazas for social meetings and recreation. 
  • Urban Planning and Sustainability: 

  • Örnsro Trästad's design emphasizes the organic integration of urban development with nature. 
  • Sustainability is highlighted in both construction and urban planning. 
  • Material Palette and Timber Focus: 

  • Organic threshold between parkland and urban landscape with a timber-based material palette. 
  • Timber was chosen for both structure and façades for its positive environmental impact and architectural opportunities. 
  • C.F. Møller's vision includes innovative and value-creating architecture through the use of wood. 
  • Community and Public Spaces: 

  • Focus on creating a sense of community with public plazas and a central green. 
  • The design incorporates private gardens and entrances for the social qualities of traditional suburban living. 
  • Illustrates a vision of an inclusive urban quarter where urban and social qualities interact with the park's organic structures.
