THE PERFECT HOLE - MÅLØV NETWORK COMPETITION





KRADS participated in the project competition "MÅLØV AKSEN" in Denmark after getting pre-qualified with SLA landscape architects, SLETH MODERNISM, Oluf Jørgensen Engineers. We were one team amongst five who was pre-qualified. We are sorry to say that our team did not win the competition, the winning team was the great architects of ADEPT and LiW Planning.

Our propocal was to create the perfect hole for movement / flow next to the metro station. This would be one in a sequence of four new urban spaces in what could become the new Måløv Aksis. The hole would be covered in asphalt in a flow based organic shape, with white mega graphics of thermal plast.

"BYOASE" A NEW DEVELOPMENT IN HERNING WITH C.C. CONTRACTOR AND THE CITY OF HERNING



KRADS, C.C. Contractor and the dept. of city planning of Herning creates this visionary scheme for a whole new urban area in the center of Herning. 


The site is surrounded by Dronningens Boulevard, Fredensgade, Dalgas Allé and Lykkesvej.

It´s called an URBAN OASIS (BYOASE) and is a combined transformation of the old power plant in the city and a scheme of a new development of 30.000 + sqm.

The focus of the project is the diverse identity of a post industrial area and its buildings being transformed in synergy with a whole new development. The concept is to let the new structure frame the site and its old buildings - generating a intense athmosphere of dynamics and diversity. This is going to be a place for living, working, leisure, culture and recreation.

The project was pre-approved by the politicians of Herning last month. Today it´s being published in the Danish media. This marks the beginning of the futher development of the project. During the next 12 month the city of Herning will work on the local planning.
