Abstract

Dette projekt handler om at udvikle et biathlon- (skiskydnings-) resort og hotel ved Gautefall i det sydlige Norge. Designet er inspireret af det norske landskab og brugen af traditionelle materialer. Projektet har en poetisk tilgang, hvor fascinationen af fjeldene former idéen: naturlige former og stemninger oversættes til arkitektur. Gennem samtaler med folk i miljøet og med atleter identificeres behov, som omsættes til centrale designparametre – især prioriteres fællesskab og gode sociale rammer. Samtidig tilstræber projektet at opfylde den danske energistandard fra 2020, som stiller krav til energieffektivitet.

This project develops a biathlon resort and hotel at Gautefall in southern Norway. The design draws on the Norwegian landscape and traditional materials. Taking a poetic approach, it lets the mountains inspire the concept by translating natural forms and atmospheres into architecture. Through conversations with people in the field and with athletes, the project identifies needs that become key design parameters, with a strong emphasis on community and social spaces. It also aims to meet the Danish 2020 energy standard, which sets requirements for energy efficiency.
