Project description
Our project creates a quality and cohesive living environment for all age groups using sustainable approaches. The project is based on a modular system. Carefully optimized module size provides the opportunity for adaptability, variability and local sawn timber usage. The buildings are able to accommodate changes in use and needs over time. Nature inclusive architecture acknowledges the surrounding environment, sunlight and mobility. The mixed use quarter provides a well-connected public space.
