Restaurering af bevaringsværdig villa
Located in Roskilde, the project comprises the careful restoration of a heritage villa, with a strong focus on preserving the building’s original architectural character, materiality and historic expression.
The project included the comprehensive restoration of the timber frame, the construction of a new roof structure and improvements to the building’s thermal performance through additional insulation. All interventions were developed with respect for the existing building, its historic materials and traditional construction methods.

The site comprised an old traditional Korean wooden house which had to be dismantled. The new 200sqm residence reuses the old building materials like wood, roof tiles and foundation rubble, continuing its lifecycle. The new design incorporates two unique features of the site, a historic well and a dolmen (rock tomb from the Bronze age), as integral spatial elements.
