Design challenge:
According to the sponsor, “We are looking for ideas and proposals that will demonstrate the use of RockShell in a social housing complex with family dwellings. The proposal must be based on the accurately drawn-up construction site, Åmosevej 12 in Hillerød, Denmark. Aerial photo is attached. The proposal submitted should contain a housing project comprising 20-50 dwellings for families, each of maximum 110m2, built as terraced houses, cluster houses or blocks of flats of maximum 2 ½ floors. The areal of the construction site is 7483 m2. The parking and buildings should be disregarded in the proposal.
We are looking for ideas and proposals that challenge the parameters and the limitations of the building system without compromising architectural quality.”
