This project is a competition entry that I did with Morten
Gregersen (nord)
in 2001. BBB is short for Better Cheaper Dwellings wich was the idea of
the competetion - to come up with new and cheaper ways of constructing
dwellings that still had some interesting spatial values.
Morten and I tried to design the the project as a structure that was prepared
for further add-ons so the area if necisary could convert into a more
dense urban area.
The structure is created by six different dwellings ranging in size and
spatialities. Each dwelling is a building block constructed of sandwich-boards.
Kitchens, bathrooms and all piping are situated in prefab boxes in each
end the dwelling.
The configuration of the six block types creates a huge variation of spaces
between, over and under the dwellings. In this way different types of
people can inhabit the spaces - where some have their own terrasse, some
their own garden, others a shared courtyard and so on....
