The city of Holstebro, which today consist of 58.309 inhabitants (May 2017), is in constant growth, and with the vision of improvement to the region`s collective transport, the City Center will get denser. As the lack of student housing is a present problem and housing designed for people living alone, this project suggest to integrate small living units in parts of the Slaughter House itself. Combined with a public program at the Ground floor, the Slaughter House can be a place that both provides a living community and a cultural meeting point for the whole city. The students can benefit of using the cultural areas as an alternative to the study areas at the university. The building is created for machines and production, which can create new spatial qualities to a housing project. When a private program is placed into a public/ industrial architecture, a building that has a particularly character occur :the combination of raw materials, large open spaces and an extraordinary ceiling hight helps to create a environment suited for social gatherings, were production can re-appear in the shape of workshops and events. By combining a public open program with student housing, which contains smaller living units combined with large areas for gatherings and cooking,
the social community that once was present during the building`s time as a factory, can be continued through out the building (all times of the day).The architectural proposal is a result of the solutions made, with the main intention to preserve the leading protecting values and adjust to the demands of the new programs. The project intends to release the tension created by the buildings existence, when adding housing. Demands, which was not present in the building, as isolation, light and view relating to the human scale, becomes important. Solutions as elevated wooden floors in the living units, an atrium to create light in the inner parts of the building, and a double facade with small winter gardens, is solutions that we believe brings new qualities to the building. Qualities that often is not included when designing new housing. The project tries to benefit of the qualities that the building already possess, such as the large ceiling height and the rawness in materials. The project consist of 44 smaller housing unit, were 32 (size range 20 - 25 m2) units are single apartments, 12 duplex (size range 20- 40m2). 12 students share one kitchen area relating common areas. The atrium works as a mediator between the apartments, the common areas and the cultural center.
8th semester project. Made together with Eline E. Dahl.

The Entrance
This project is an investigation on how to work with an industrial building to re-find its architectural value. Our main vision was to create a building that was defined by its past, and together with our intervention, created a building that seems as one whole, rather then a fragmentation. The project strives to show the potential that can be released, when a transformation is made. The intention was to create a dialogue between the existing and the added, creating a building that is both affected by its former history and its new program.

The Living Unit
The architectural proposal is a result of the solutions made with the main intention to preserve our leading protecting values and adjust to the demands of the new programs. The project intends to play with the tension that occur in the buildings when adding housing. Demands, which was not present in the building, as isolation, light and view relating to the human scale, becomes important. Solutions as elevated wooden floors in the living units, an atrium to create light in the inner parts of the building, and a double facade with small winter gardens, is solutions that we believe brings new qualities to the building. Qualities that often is not included when designing new housing. The project tries to benefit of the qualities that the building already possess, such as the large ceiling
