The objective of the project is to create a residential community for six residents, staff, and common areas that harnesses the potential of the site in terms of landscape, cardinal directions, views, infrastructure, and climate. A key focus throughout the process has been to design welcoming homes that facilitate well-being and positive experiences. Sondre Stensheim Jørgensen The building is situated on Haugland in gently sloping terrain with favorable sunlight and a fantastic view towards the beautiful island of Aldra. Sondre Stensheim Jørgensen The design has a precise footprint, cutting into the terrain to the south and defined by a retaining wall to the north. Existing birch groves are preserved to the greates... More

This project shows the rehabilitation and transformation of a building used for traditional codliver-oil production in Lofoten, Norway since 1939. Parts of the house and the Henningsvær pier was totally damaged after the winter storm "Berit" in 2011. Marco Schön The new addition fits in discreetly to Henningsværs authentic environment and adapts the building pattern forming the neighbourhood, dominated by small scale wharf buildings with pitched roofs.By using the same ​volume and roofscape, the new design stands as an echo of the original damaged section. Translucent aerogel panels on the roof, and facades, gives a contemporary look that fits nicely in with the cultural heritage surroundings. In the dark hours and wi... More

Elegantly placed and intertwined with the sloping terrain, the two villas on Flesaasveien have a simple yet striking volume. The two buildings are positioned next to an existing house in a residential neighbourhood to the north of Oslo, Norway. The surrounding area is characterised by its green and open spaces. With a sensitivity to the surrounding context and site conditions, this densification project eases into the neighbourhood without overcrowding the site. A combination of curves and straight lines in the project gives a refreshing but modern addition. The exterior is clad in untreated heartwood of pine, outer corners rounded to provide a dynamic yet soft and fluid appearance. Einar Aslaksen Einar Aslaksen Fitting two addit... More

Y cabin is located in the Vikerfjell mountain range in Ringerike, Norway. Extending slightly out over a small crag, it peeks out between the pine trees and gazes upon a northern forest landscape. The building volume branches out in three directions from a central pivot point, where six differently angled cross laminated timber slats meet. This creates a complex roof geometry which allows for an open and flexible space, eliminating the need for beams and columns. Nadia Norskott Kyrre Sundal The plan is zoned into the three branches. One of which contains the bedrooms, clad in ocher-colored valchromat, while the two remaining branches are split between the dining room and a living room / kitchen space. The fireplace, centered where... More
