Student Housing

Intro

The main theme for the semester course is the complex and dense city. The building as a community is the aim of the research and its connection and relation to the city, the neighborhood, and the program.

The façade of the building is also looked at, as the part that works as the ‘face’ of the building, and the special transitions toward the city.

Another central theme is the research of the complex relationship between the singular unit, the room, and the greater organization and logistics of the layout of the building.



The program is to draw a building/building complex, for the corner site surrounded by the streets of Tietgensgade and Ved Glyptoteket. The site lies in the center of the city of Copenhagen and has both a cosmopolitan character with Tivoli and Glyptoteket as its neighbors. But still the residential spaces in the area connect the site to a very local place in the city.

The site is characterized by many different building structures with a large number of historical layers and references: new and older residential buildings, larger institutions, monuments and tourist attractions. The site is also placed in an infrastructural center of the city
