Integrert livs- og boligkvalitet

The Furuset Youth Housing Development was conceived with the principal aim of merging living quality with housing quality. Efforts to achieve this include providing socially inclusive outdoor spaces built on a human scale, ensuring affordable housing with no compromise to the quality of life, prioritizing energy efficiency, using durable materials to minimize maintenance, and enhancing accessibility. The design places a heavy emphasis on promoting a pedestrian and cyclist-friendly environment.

CLT-boliger fremmer samfunn

Strategically located in a culturally significant landscape in Furuset, Norway, the project aims to protect and enhance the local environment. It introduces Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) housing as a nucleus for community development, offering efficient, eco-friendly living spaces for young individuals embarking on independence. The development spans a 4.8 ha area within a 5-10 minute walk to Furuset centre and the subway, deliberately situating house volumes on the west to maximize communal garden space.

Sosialt orienterte CLT-leiligheter

Comprising 27 new apartments across 9 modular CLT units, the housing development is designed with social interactivity as its core. Each module houses a three-bedroom, a two-bedroom, and a single room apartment, featuring diverse layouts that emphasize spaciousness and are further enhanced with skylights for improved daylight. Oriented to stimulate social interaction, the apartments feature dual-facade designs with social rooms facing the communal paths, while private balconies offer personal space and views.
