Adaptive Reuse

Summer 2024 | Tina Midtgaard

Operating as a ceramic studio located in Copenhagen Denmark, the design connects to the pre-existing buildings’ history as a train hub. As an adaptive reuse strategy, the original architecture is preserved and celebrated. Incorporating an open layout helps create a friendly, engaging, and connected atmosphere amongst users throughout all the different spaces. The design is community oriented to promote socialization amongst the various members of the surrounding neighborhood.

Snowkill Exterminist Future
