In the redevelopment of the dormitory district in Trekroner, on the outskirts of Roskilde (Denmark), the choice of appropriate materials played a key role. The façade materials were to have minimal environmental impact while being economically justified for the entire project’s budget. The project’s vision was to ensure the well-being of students living on the estate. Balancing high-quality ecological materials with the budget and design appearance is never easy, yet! The Lunawood Thermopine cladding board was chosen for the project, perfectly fitting the above criteria. Profiles 25×125 were used, and Bergsten Timber handled the comprehensive impregnation. Burnblock protection at class B-s1,d0 completed the project’s requirements.
Three new blocks with 46 student apartments were built, and the existing office building is being converted into 35 student apartments. The new houses are built on a plan of one and two-room homes with an area of 34 to 50 m². Green oases in the courtyards between the buildings are open and encourage mutual integration. Maintaining a friendly atmosphere is harmoniously reinforced by the thermally modified façade, which gracefully patinates in harmony with nature and the passage of time.
