The most photographed scene in Trondheim (Norway) are the old wooden warehouses along the river in the old city center. Although everyone falls in love with these brightly colored buildings, the warehouses and the surroundings are in decay.
This project consists of a research on the reusability of these warehouses, divided into three themes; past, present and future. It tells about the history of these warehouses, the conditions nowadays, the conservation debate and it gives a vision on how to improve the area and reuse the warehouses.
The design consists of a masterplan for the buildings and surroundings and a design for a transformation of three warehouses into a museum. The wooden buildings from 1800 and 1868 are transformed internally and the concrete warehouse from 1955 is also given a ew façade. The buildings are connected through the routing and through copper boxes.
