Tree House in Ørestaden Np.2 2. Year

Inspirational picture of a tree close to the site.

A play with the structure of how to move around.

The situation plan. The house is next to a channel and three other apart-ment blocks. Before the site was opcupid by a simmilar apartment block.

Tree house ØrestadShort description

An apartment block, situated in the north of the new area of copenhagen called Ørestaden. I have taken insparation in the structure of the tree and leaves both for developing a solutuin for the indivdual apart-ments and for the structure as a whole. The graduate to transition from public to private.

The appartments are organized around a central entrance room, from where you have access to semi-public common space which again is connected to the stairs.

The building have three of these structures . All with differnt “twists” and angels to create a richness in the inbetween space that’s created when you put them togheter.

I started out doing the apartments, but later the concept changed and the apartments where scaled to be the main structurein which the apartments would be introduced. The apartments and infrastructual structure would therefore have a kind of fractal relationship. All the inbetween space would be common space. So the normal garden space would be integrated in the building.
