Shifted the city center into disorder an urban fragmentation The museum becomes a strategic point in the mission of stitching together the nabohood and city, turning the abonded railway tracks into soft green mobility,conecting the industrial eara and univeristy with the Mideavel city center. The museum’s language area borne out of the urban statrategy an the topografical carpet of mass, voids and rivers.
NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM OF FRIBOURG FRIBOURG, SWITZERLAND The River Through archeological methods of tracing historical maps the evolution of the city and lanscap revealed one of the main rivers under the site. The river today does not appear on todays maps. This re-discoveri of an archeological treasure becomes the expansion of the museum, a large aquarium, exposing the oceanic kingdome, with a large sheat of wather enclosing the and sorunding the space with the sond of falling water, all exisitng cualitis revealed. Caves for ground living animals are carved out.
NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM OF FRIBOURG FRIBOURG, SWITZERLAND Revealing By Slising up the ground and the old Depo, the straturnes and the struckture get revealed as an openbook of past events, encapsulating the very literal passage of time that sculpted it. This geological method allows the animal collection to be displaced in there natural enviorment sea forest underground and sky. Lanscap and the architecture becomes a natural and arteficial background for the animals to apear dynamic and alive. The programs floating out of the open body’s to take positions in the contexts to reveal and finish the site, into one organism.

NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM OF FRIBOURG FRIBOURG, SWITZERLAND
Explore The analogy is to explore the new exhibitions as a researcher would. This is achieved by creating fascination and interest trough impressive original objects in an aesthetic setting, by subtly demonstrating how science works, by letting the visitors decide on which pathways they ‘cruise’ through the exhibtions, how deep they ‘dive’ into the scalable information provided, and how much interpretative help they draw from the interactive elements. The aim is for visitors to assemble their own ‘research results’, as derived from their museum visit, into a coherent picture of a better understanding of evolution and its consequences.”
SIKLROAD MUSEUM BRIDGE XIAN, CHINA
The discovery of the ruins of the Silkroow Bridge is the discovery of traid and extachange of culture’s Set out to achieve a museum project about rediscovery, the museum is basted on taking the visiter through journey deep into the fossils left in the ground – like walking in the bones of a dinosaur. By acknowledging the previous civilization’s collective memory, that shaped the ancient urban environment.
The method is one of carving into the earth, where we gap the distance between the past and future; of retrieving a lost monumentality of the remaining columes of the Silk Row Bridge, , recreating a lost order of hierarchy and, consequently, controlling the ungoverned city; of establishing contact, between the user and the heritage, Using light as a guidance into personal cultural enrichment – into the heritage itself.
SIKLROAD BRIDGE MUSEUM XIAN, CHINA
The concept of the tomb; the passage from one realm to another. The journey, into the roots of the earth is a time machine that hopes to bring a heritage perspective back to newer generations. A vernacular monument descaled from monumentality, made of earth and covered in vegetation, merging in a perfect symbiosis with the landscape, The museum takes the 15m x850m similar proporstions as the anchiant bridge. And the composition of the varied typologies, with diverse purposes and functions that are intimately related to the main hall, the columes final resting place. An analogy death.

SIKLROAD BRIDGE MUSEUM XIAN, CHINA
The Light Under a Bridge What is the sensation of being under a bridge? We had a desire to discover the particular atmosphere that is generated in this very specific situation, by showcasing the rhythm, the movement of the anchiant pillars and establish a sense of direction, one that makes the user read the archicture, between light and darkness and discover the literal meaning of being under a bridge – walking on heritage. The light from the carved ceiling follows the archeological pillar’s diverse angles and bends

SIKLROAD BRIDGE MUSEUM XIAN, CHINA Breathing sustaining the thought that the system functions as a skin, the spaces are the elements that pierce through, allowing the visitor for reflection and intimacy. Facing the open sky and slowing the Human movement an a feeling of leaving inside of a mountain allowing the individueal to search for history navigating trough events. 0

Untouched Heritage The path though the museum materializes itself as a flying concrete slab, the same system that was applied - a contradiction to the violence that is the act of carving the space out. We, therefore, never allow the visitor to have a physical contact with the past. We introduced a second material in order to transpire the correct information about the axis of the old bridge and to differentiate it from the newly carved space. The heritage remains pure, ready to be rediscovered – untouched. 2

SUN HILL

THE METHOD
At the northern end of the globe there is a small big city with a very changeable climate, Copenhagen. Copenhagen’s mood is very much influenced by the weather. There are talk of the 4 cold months and the longing for warmer climes. There is, however, no one like Copenhageners who can be in such good mood as when the sun shines. In fact, Copenhagen has 196 hours from November to end February. Many of these days, however, are used inside, as the cold low pressures create too much wind to stay on the streets. Likewise, the courtyards in the classic Copenhagen cart have the problem that the sun’s orbit during the winter months is too low to penetrate with direct daylight. Our proposal tries to create a new dimension of living in Copenhagen. This is done by creating daylight, year-round, in the beautiful windless courtyard.
I utilize the windless patio as a bird nest and plant an egg. We pull up the wooden length and create a hill at 5 meters height. The ground is modeled according to the sun’s path and the houses of the existing ones. This is done to preserve the small private farm oases located around the new hill. The hill rises from the opening towards the sankthansgade in order to maintain the depth of the courtyard that creates intimacy…

If there is sun on Denmark’s shortest day (Dec. 22), which only has 6 hours and 55 minutes of sunshine. There will be 3 hours of sun to pick up at the top of the bark. A central meeting point or a cozy intimate slope that can be used for anything from enjoying a few hours of sunshine while reading in a book for dinners with friends or family or for children sledging on the new tray. These are our suggestions for the renovation of Ravnsborggården.

INFILL/RESTORATION - DANISH SUMMERHOUSE GILLELEJE, DANEMARK
In our approach to the site between to black volumes we were commissioned to connect, we attempt a romantic relationship with the traditional Chinese courtyard houses – a closed horizontal composition vertically opened to the sky. Through a strong devotion to maintaining the empty space there was existing as a gate to the garden. Located near the sea we imagined designing a floating boat over the green sea, with long octopuses arms connecting a relationship towards the existing and the old We gave the roof a new patchwork and extruded the bones out in a turn to form a sequence of small worlds. Just as you eat a fish the buildings flesh and bones are revealed on top of the green plate.
HYDE PARK LIBRARY LONDON
ARCHASM COMPETITION, HONORABLE MENTION
BOOK DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
The architectural effect of this continuous bend, compression and dilatation of the space, creates a playful interaction between the user and the park. You can select a book and go to sit in the under a tree, or just stop and listen to an audio book. The wall is made out of translucide polycarbonate, a materiality that reveals the shadows of the movements of the books and of the persons on the other side.
The library is based on a system ressembling the Mรถbius strip, a continuous wall that delivers books in the park. The wall bends around the trees of the park to create the different zones of the program, sometimes enclosed. The wall works as a book distributor: wherever you stand around the building, you can select and order a book from an online platform.

SCULPTOR RESIDENCE
MARBLE QUARRY ALICANTE PROVINCE, SPAIN
This artist residence for sculptor has a progressive transition from the most private zone, the house and the library (tower) to the public one, the exhibition space. Each one of them has particular orientation according to they functional and lighting need. A walking path makes a continuous connexion between the different components: library - house - workshop - storage - public entry - exhibition - courtyard.

They is no physical or visual contact between the sculptor and the public. Only the artist can decide of social interactions. Thus the building offers two experiences for two kind of users. A building that works as a human shell wich enveloppes an inner organism.

RESIDUE
My name is Frederik and I am from Copenhagen. I graduated from the Master of Architecture of Politecnico di Milano, Italy. Passionate about architecture, I discovered the professional practice along the Jørn Utzon Atelier, working for Jeppe Utzon’s office in Copenhagen, and by myself on small projects on the side of my studies. I spend most of my time drawing, attending lectures and reading to enrich my theoretical baggage. I wish to continue my international experience, that I started since my childhood as competing for Danemark in sailing abroad, and through my student experience: my final thesis project was established in between two schools, Politecnico and the KADK (the Royal Academy of Copenhagen) under the teaching of Guro Sollid. I also participated to a two-month workshop in China in the setting of a university urban research, and lived in Paris for a few months.
