Villa Rue
Naturlige og biogene materialer er nøglen til dette bæredygtige hjem. En fortolkning af den moderne lade. Et hjem er ikke bare et værelse eller et sted. - Det er en følelse.

Da vi først mødte klienten og så deres sted, var de overbeviste om, at de ville rive alle de gamle bygninger ned og bygge et nyt hus, der kunne rumme alle deres drømme om funktioner og behov. Derudover ønskede de at bygge en ny garage, et nyt skur og et multifunktionelt rum. Samtidig var det vigtigt for bygherren, at projektet var fremadskuende i forhold til brugen af materialer og bæredygtighed generelt.
Vi foreslog derfor at bevare så meget som muligt af de gamle fine staldbygninger og omdanne dem til en garage, kontor, skur og multifunktionsrum - i stedet for at rive dem ned.
Det forældede hovedhus nedbrydes forsigtigt, og dets materialer genbruges til brolægning omkring det nye hus og i gården. En blanding af knust beton og mursten vil skabe en ny æstetik, der kun kan produceres gennem en omhyggelig tilgang til bæredygtighed og genbrug.
Grundlæggende vil vi hellere transformere end nedrive. Og i stedet for at bygge et stort nyt hus, vil vi hellere bygge et gennemtænkt mindre hus, der bruger passive foranstaltninger frem for en masse højteknologiske tilføjelser.

Ved ankomsten til landstedet bliver du mødt af de fine gamle træer og ført videre ind i gården, hvor en gruppe nye kirsebærtræer fremhæver indgangen til huset. Støttemuren af kampesten skaber en overgang mellem de to naturlige plateauer, der findes på stedet. Kampestenene findes på adjekentfelter.

Koncept/passiv solvarme
Sommer: Det lange udhæng mod syd sikrer, at den høje sommersol ikke kommer ind i huset og dermed ikke overopheder hjemmet. Soveværelserne er orienteret mod nord, så de er i skyggen. På denne måde bruges unødvendig energi ikke til at køle hjemmet ned.
Vinter: Den lave vintersol passerer overhænget og kommer langt ind i huset. Dette bidrager positivt til hjemmets komfort, da solstrålerne opvarmer gulvet og opbevares i betonen, som frigives i løbet af dagen - også når mørket falder.
Kombinationen af gammelt og nyt danner en omfavnende indbydende arkitektur, hvor fortid og nutid skaber intime uderum, hvor livet kan udfolde sig.

The old garage is being transformed into a workshop and bicycle shed.
The building will have a new roof, and the green gates will be redone. To the east, a large window is inserted, so that you can look out at the fields when you are sitting on your bicycle.

A gentle renovation of the walls and floor, as well as a new roof, transforms the old garage into a completely new workshop for the cycling enthusiast. A large sliding door to the west opens up to the courtyard.

On the south facing facade, the large overhang creates a covered outdoor space with a magnificent view of the fields. A lovely spot to relax when the dew falls on summer evenings, or to go outside and enjoy the sun in the Spring. The facades are clad in untreated wood and is devided in a top and a base.

Vision sketch
Three old buildings are transformed and the new simply shaped modern barn are situated thus is corelates to the transformed barns thus the old courtyard space is defined by the buildings.
The large pitched roof is the main architectural element of the project. Framing is used as architectural motif to enhance the qualities of the surroundings. Selected views are cultivated architecturally and create special rooms, niches and nooks for living, which together outline the expression of the house - robust and precise rather than flexible and fluttering.

The old transformed barn opens up towards the beautiful fields, where the morning sun is rising.
We suggest an insulated “box” covered with plywood on the walls and ceilings, as well as a built-up floor, covered with PU.

Under the overhang facing south there is both the entrance to the house and a covered outdoor space. From this spot, in addition to looking through the whole house, there is also a view of the rolling landscape to the south. The kitchen is in open connection with the dining area which can be opened all the way to the outdoors. The large sliding door can be open even when the summer rain is falling.

The west end of the country house opens up into the lush orchard full of old crooked apple trees through which the evening sun is filtered in the most beautiful way. From this spot there is a stunning view to the courtyard covered with crushed recycled tiles from the old buildings. A great part of the DNA of this project lies in the roof, both for old and new in which we have inscriped the new barn house.
The combination of old and new form an embracing welcoming architecture where past and present creates intimate outdoor spaces where life can unfold itself.


The house opens up from north to south - from the tall trees in the backyard through the kitchen and dining area and all the way to the covered terrace and to the courtyard where the view is articulated by the beautiful fields. As well as the large overhang to the south protects against overheating, the skylight ensures that daylight flows into the tall space, especially above the dining area and all the way into the kitchen, where the ceiling is lowered to create a spatial transition between living room and kitchen. Furthermore, the kitchen can be screened off with a large sliding door.

A hidden cozy nook with access to the living room is revealed in the “attic”.
The inner surfaces are covered with Søuld and the floor covered with a sisal carpet. From this intimate space, through a shutter, there is a spectacular view to the beautiful hilly landscape.

In all of our housing projects we search for a homely atmosphere, no matter what scale we are working with - this project is no exception. To the east, the landscape motif, with the undulating fields, is framed by the large window section in which a piece of furniture is integrated. At the far end of the room, the ceiling height is lowered and forms an intimate niche.
The poetry originates in the meeting between new and old - past and present - as the project here demonstrates in its material palette and the completely unique and beautiful spaces that arise between the old sheds and the new modern barn.
