Abstract
The presented proposal dwells upon the imminent societal change in the Arctic environment. By means of analysis of the local traditions and present day environment, the proposal aims to house and promote a conscious and integrated social development of the modernizing society of Greenlanders. Therefore, Greenland Art Hub will encompass both The National Gallery of Greenlandic Art as wished by the Municipality, but also a Culture House with classrooms and workshops designed for accommodating the local artistic movement. From an architectural perspective, the proposal assesses an integrated design approach that focuses on creating a framework that is humble in relation to the existing environment. Moreover, great attention has been given to conscious design, where sustainable features and the architectural intention inform each other in a tectonic way
