Transformation of the artificial island of Christiansholm. Also known as the Paper Island, today it houses a number of empty industrial warehouses. The Buildings were to be re-invented as a creative environment and a hub for innovation across a variation of operations. Without loosing the interest of turists and other visitors.

Multi-Space, Vindinge KirkeStudent competition, 1st place October 2013Groupwork with Vicki Buhl Lausen

Ideas on how to involve a crossarm of a midieval church with the daily life surrounding it. The congregation wanted a very flexible room with room for both larger gatherings as well as a place for reflection.

Our suggestion highlights architectural elements such as arches, windows etc. which you would not otherwise notice. It also makes it possible to experience church services from new angles.
