Abstract
Utzon Academy ligger i Atlasbjergene i Marokko og er tænkt som et sted, hvor arkitektstuderende henter inspiration fra Marokkos arkitektur og Jørn Utzons arbejdsmetoder. Projektets design styres af en fænomenologisk tilgang, der fokuserer på, hvordan mennesker oplever rum, og bruger ild og vand som centrale elementer i læringsmiljøet. Disse elementer skaber rum til eftertanke og fælles samlingssteder, hvor viden kan deles.
Set in Morocco’s Atlas Mountains, the Utzon Academy is envisioned as a place where architecture students draw inspiration from Moroccan architecture and Jørn Utzon’s working methods. The project’s design is guided by a phenomenological approach—focusing on how people experience spaces—using fire and water as central elements in the learning environment. These elements shape areas for quiet reflection and communal gathering, creating settings where knowledge can be shared.
