Veum Hageby

Veum Hageby

250 Housing
Fredrikstad

Surface: 17 000 m2
Status: Ongoing

This garden city inspired neighbourhood project on the outskirts of Fredrikstad focuses on quality of life, community and nature. The project has been drawn in collaboration with Studio Sted and Ghilardi+Hellsten Arkitekter. It features many building typologies, gathered around common courtyards and surrounded by public parks. This layout promotes social interaction and social diversity to create a sense of community and improve neighbour interactions. In order to achieve a significant degree of self-sufficiency, some of the buildings house shops and small businesses, public gardens and allotments offer the opportunity to grow vegetables, and the parks have playgrounds and outdoor sports facilities. In this way, neighbourhood life is very self-sustaining and promotes the local economy for a sustainable lifestyle.

The building typologies in the project vary from terraced houses to denser flats, as well as the rehabilitation and conservation of existing buildings. The preservation of existing buildings is both a decarbonized way of reducing building costs, but also of maintaining the identity of the site and reactivating buildings otherwise obsequious with only minor interventions.

Lyse Montesorriskole

Lyse Montesorri School

School
Oslo

Surface: 1 200 m2
Status: Completed

Vi har gjennomført rehabiliteringen av den bevaringsverdige bygningen til Lyse Montessoriskole. Villa Lyse på Ullern ble tegnet av arkitekt Arnstein Arneberg og er i dag en barneskole.

Ettersom en bevaringsverdig bygning er fredet, har det over tid blitt gjort mindre utvendige og innvendige inngrep for å bevare de opprinnelige kvalitetene, som gulv, tak, dører og vinduer i hovedfløyen, samtidig som rommene og bruken av bygningen er oppdatert i henhold til de moderne behovene til et slikt pedagogisk system.
