Project introduction:
This research semester has been a continous process of gaining knowledge about a buildings typology, form and other spacial qualitites. Our case study was to examine the new hotel-barn at Nørre Vosborg, a transformation-project by the architectural firm Arkitema. Through different phases, a new architecture developed. The final result should remain open; it should be able to transform and adapt to other situations on new parameters. In our process of creating a new architecture, it became important for us to focus on certain spacial qualities. Light; its way of creating and revealing spaces, Transitions - from inside to outside/dark to light, and the large, open rooms of the hotel-barn.
