IDENTITY
The building function as a calm spot in the heavily exploited site. It offers green public space for the future inhabitants of the RDM. It is a place where you back and relax for a while before going back to your work or study. This is reflected in the project’s simple form language. The simplicity of the geometry makes is stand out. The complexity on the other hand is in another scale: the play of light and shadows on the façade, the digitally handcrafted material and detailing of the joints. The building is tactile, playful and calm.

MATERIAL
