DA VINCI PARK, AALBORG

In August 2004, VLA won the architectural competition for designing the best urban precinct in Aalborg. The proposal is based on a text describing the establishment of the best precinct of Aalborg.

Inspired by this statement, the proposal involves contemporary housing units that are farsighted in terms of both functionality and architecture.

The fundamental concept is to combine dynamic architecture with quality outdoor surroundings in order to influence the residents’ awareness of and care for their surroundings. This understanding can establish an order of priority in the common environment, whereby each resident consciously attributes a unique value to each housing unit, common housing area and semi-public area.
