BACK ON THE ROOFTOP Single Family House Location: KĂ¸ge, Denmark Status: Built Year: 2013 /EN The family house in KĂ¸ge has being designed for maximizing the use of its rooftop. Due to the site situation is being possible to locate the program of the project among different levels that follow the sloped terrain. The spaces have being inverted from the traditional concept by placing the day areas on the top floor, just above the night areas of the house, being located in the first floor.

Dinning area.

The rooftop is the main core of the spaces. This area modulates the rest of the program by its visual and spatial connectivity. The project strives to be developed from the concept of rooftop architecture. The rooftop space is arranged by combining the flat and pitch geometries. Which allow the space to be use in relation to the climatic conditions. This element in the dwelling is able to recreate a private and protected domestic space, but one that is also exposed and outdoor, from where to enjoy the benefits of the sun, the breeze and of a starry night.

LETTER FROM A SATISFIED CLIENT:

that has to be different or it is not working. It is just as it should be! We were all the summer by the terrace - it is brilliant! And there’s plenty of room for having guests over. The first floor is just as you described it at once as the space that we will not go down! And it’s an amazing feeling of almost being on the water, when we sit down and do not see either roads or coastline. So it has been well thought! There is enough room for the whole family, friends and colleagues, and a great kitchen, which provides of the space for everyone’s culinary experiences.

✪

We have lived in our house for a good half a year; therefore it is the right time for us to tell you how much we appreciate it. We simply think that you have designed us a fantastic house! And we’re just so happy to live here. We never imagined that it would be so pleasant to live here. If the purpose of an architect is to draw beautiful houses that can thrive and meet the everyday people’s demands related to function, then you have reached completely the goal with our house! It’s actually a little hard to say with words how happy we are for it. Daily, our house gives us extraordinary comfort that it almost gets completely into the body and soul by bringing us joy, peace, energy and harmony. There is nothing that needs to be changed,

You should hear all the “wow”, “yeah” and “yes” from our guests when they go upstairs for the first time to the first floor and see the room and the view – so it has happened what you mentioned that they would. The first floor has been a TV-free zone alone! Besides the daily enjoyment of the water and the light, we have seen beautiful sunsets; bird migration, the moonlight and the Big Dipper trough the triangle section in the window while hanging out late at night, and this morning we saw a seal, which took a rest on one of the stones at the beach. Nowadays, during the dark winter, however, we also go downstairs, where we have created a cozy corner with comfortable sofas, books and

a big screen. We enjoy the beautiful natural light throughout the house, which constantly amazes with seasonal changes. During August mornings one stands up under the shower while watching the sun coming up over the horizon, then you know that it can only be a fantastic day! Of course we move up and downstairs a lot, but it is so beautiful that it is actually just pleasant. Here, there is a wonderful indoor climate, warm and comfortable, and not to forget, well isolated! During September, we put the handrail on the terrace and it got painted in anthracite gray, as you can see in the picture. We think it looks really good. We have also created a large terrace facing the garden; there is grass, and we set a beech hedge next to the neighbor. We have not finished yet the main stairs and the drive-in, because we are still waiting for a reply from the local authority regarding to what will be done with the water from the drain. There should be an answer by 2014. We look forward to that! We hope one day you will want to stop by us and see how it goes with the house. You are always very welcome! Now we want to wish you a very happy and exciting New Year 2014. All the best! Tonny and Hanne 9

PASSIVE HOUSE COMPLEX Housing Complex Location: Trustrup, Denmark Status: Built Year: 2008 /EN

Single family house.

While respecting the idyllic surroundings of Djursland, Denmark; which is known as a privileged area due to its fantastic environment; a housing state has been developed and it will contain 22 friendly environmental dwellings, which have been designed to use less energy and promote the use of renewable energy. The housing project becomes the perfect answer for the contemporary family, offering 5 different types of houses, situated on 500 m2 plots. The houses vary from 110 m2 to 165 m2 and all are formed to enhance the quality of the existing views on the site. The houses are designed in order to eliminate unnecessary use of energy by optimizing the passive heat, airflow and insulation. By integrating these factors in the design, we create a house with great comfort and low energy cost. The interior space is designed over two axes, where the main one belongs to the living area which opens toward the landscape, while the secondary one crosses the living area, here the service areas are located. Thus the house is divided into two sections, the private and public area; both connected to the central service room.

Pavilion Location: Mexico City, Mx Status: Competition Year: 2012 These are the elements that turn the Archivo garden into Hortus Apertus, the open garden. The proposal incorporates the functional requirements of varying human activities, a range of donated materials and temporality by asking; how does body, nature and architecture meet each other in the Archivo Pavilion? It was clear that the furniture, its temporal usage and limited space required special attention.

MDF furniture and Wall.

/EN

By playing with the idea of the stackable chair combined with an enthusiastic approach towards the given materials we developed the idea of the furniture wall. Here, circular holes are cut into plates of MDF that are then layered and put side by side to form a wall. Chairs and tables made of MDF are then pushed into position on the wall when not in use, leaving the floor surface free for different people and different activities. The MDF wall splits into two parts leaving an opening to enter through. The wall and its surrounding space is covered by a green roof, lifting up the garden foot print, supported by reflective and translucent materials ensuring a strong relation with the surrounding garden. The area around the wall is served by a moveable kitchen.

A roof in the garden, supported by slim columns and overhanging a hard surface that is framed by translucent drapes, creating a space for the two main characters; the furniture wall and the kitchen cylinder.

Urban planning Location: Aalborg, Denmark Status: Competition Award: 2º Prize Year: 2013 Strengths of Vestbyen Vestbyen is characterised by its strong connections to the dense urban city centre of Aalborg in the east, the villa neighbourhoods and cultural establishments in the south, the open fjordland greens and allotment gardens in the west and the fjord coastline in the north - a geographically compressed city landscape with its centre along Kastejvej. Within Vestbyen the most noticeable green area is that of the Fjordpark. Frequently used by both locals and visitors it stretches along the fjord bringing the western landscape area into the city creating a green buffer zone between the city in the south and the water in the north.

found in the neighbourhood seems scattered and unable to unite in a collective framing. The area is physically well connected but visually detached and the streets are worn down and overrun by cars leaving bicycles and pedestrians under prioritised. Though there are some high quality green areas in the neighbourhood their green environment seize to unfold into the streets that connects them. The immediate qualities of being close to the water and the recreative features of the Fjordpark are dominated by the experience of these qualities not being fully visible or accessible throughout Vestbyen.

Challenges When developing Vestbyen over a long time span it is important to ensure that fixed decisions early on does not intervene with future possibilities. At the best there is a certain amount of flexibility incorporated into the whole of the project but still maintaining the ability to make and carry out important decisions at different stages. It is also crucial that the existing local identities with their architectural and historical values are strengthened through preservation as well as addition. New stories are oftentimes best told when they evolve from what has already been told.

Potentials Vision

Over time the development in the area has generated a range of buildings with high architectural values as well as historic and cultural values. The area’s mix of building typologies and variety in functions tells the story of a multifunctional city. Whether Vestbyen gives the impression of a dense city enriched with suburban qualities or the other way around it is a place that generates unique qualities in terms of diversity through it’s functions, it’s inhabitants and their different needs. Weaknesses While Vestbyen succeed in being a varied city it lacks an overall experience of hierarchy. The many identities

The planning of a new light rail along Kastetvej that connects through the city centre introduce new interest and attention to the neighbourhood. It will bring Vestbyen evencloser to the rest of the city and strengthen the whole of Aalborg’s recreational connections. As Kastetvej is strengthened as the main entrance to Vestbyen it could support for a new hierarchy where Kastetvej becomes the backbone in the neighbourhood where all the different identities of Vestbyen can relate to. At the same time Vestbyen will benefit from a more green infrastructure with strengthened connections as well as new programming throughout the area.

Kastetvej turns into a strong backbone of Vestbyen. When you are on Kastetvej you know that you are in Vestbyen, this is the street on which you both enter and exit Vestbyen and where the most important features of the neighbourhood are made accessible and visible. As Kastetvej becomes the strongest line in Vestbyen this is where both new and existing identities will hinge themselves on to and thus become dependent on Kastetvej and Vestbyen but maintain the ability of being independent of each other. This makes Vestbyen able to adjust to different changes at different times and in different places as Kastetvej becomes the Collective Storyline of Vestbyen”. @Monarkiet 21

JURY’S ASSESSMENT

✪

“The project is commended by the jury for its holistic and com- prehensive approach to Vestbyen, covering all the competition criteria satisfactorily. There is a measure of care and emphasis on the development of public spaces across all scales of this project that the jury finds interesting. Trying to answer all possible aspects relevant to the development of Vestbyen with equal care, making them equally important in the strategy, is the great strength of the project - but also the potential weakness, risking a lack of hierarchy and clear momentum, making the totality of the strategy a bit predictable. Nevertheless, the project strategy of storyboarding a catalogue of possible identities for different subareas, whilst remain- ing within the specific context of each area, and then linking them together at Kastetvej, is a robust way of providing an open toolbox of examples, ideas and possibilities that can inform the further development of Vestbyen and therefore the jury points it out as a runner up.”

1 ARCHITECTURAL INTEGRATION OF GREEN ROOFS AND PASSIVE SOLUTIONS FOR COOLING

Due to the ecological benefits that vernacular design principles and green roof technology can offer to architecture in the tropics, is therefore a motive to identify and perform the elements involved in the quest for integrating buildings and green roofs. It is then that greening of buildings can become an ecological strategy that not only could mitigate the environmental impact but it also could benefit the structures that support the vegetated surfaces.

This thesis explores building and green roof elements that can improve the ambient conditions for the users, while encouraging respect for the natural environment.

Unfortunately, several contemporary building models have adopted alien design principals and forms, which performance is limited into the warm and humid climate because they have been designed to perform under different circumstances. Consequences: - Increase the energy demand for cooling. - Raise maintenance cost due to artificial climate.

Variaty of areas on the rooftop.

ROOFTOP ARCHITECTURE Himmelhaven Location: Aarhus, Denmark Status: Project Year: 2011

/EN

Himmelhaven is located in Mejlgade 39, Aarhus, Denmark. The project hosts a mixed program with a wide variety of activities, such as recreational outdoor areas, educational and working indoor areas. The site is located in the Latin Quarter, which accommodates housing, educational and cultural amenities, entertainment and business enterprises focusing on innovative development. Thus, it is a premise for the project to be available to reflect spatially the spirit of the community.

The project is inspired on the principle of rooftop acupuncture. The idea is to reactivate trough a punctual urban intervention the roofscape in the Latin Quarter, where the projectÂ´s rooftop is currently a wasted land. Thus, it has been a premise to explore the sustainable potential that the top surface on the existing building has for improving the built environment in downtown of Aarhus. Due to magnificent location within the local context, the project offers a wide variety of possibilities to refurbish the rooftop by implementing two basic strategies: stacking (placing new functions

on the top) and greening (providing of area for urban farming). In consequence, the rooftop becomes an important element to rejuvenate the neighborhood and promote certain development among social, economical and environmental aspects. Nevertheless, the combination of these two main strategies can grant of wide benefits, such as harvesting and reducing the volume of storm-water runoff, preserving biodiversity, improving aesthetic value, lessening air pollution, maximizing noise reduction, sustaining urban agriculture and conserving energy, just to name some. The creation of new activities promotes the implementation of roof structures for urban farming and agriculture. The goods produced there can be exchange or be sold to other residents or shops within the community. Food production can benefit residentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health, by avoiding polluted food consumption. Therefore local organic food production can ensure freshness and health on the table of the community. @Monarkiet 27
