Legater til nye arkitekter: Se vinderne

VOLA, 3XN og CEBRA har præmieret tre nyuddannede arkitekter. Se, hvem de er.

VOLA Award

Prisen går til Alexander Hejgaard Fagerholt for projektet In Between Typologies – The Future Challenges of Refshaleøen.

Projektet spørger, om vi designer på baggrund af markedskræfterne eller for at facilitere byliv og dernæst om vi kan forene de to hensyn? Juryen skriver:

“The resulting project is at once rigorous and playful in its expression. A piece of infrastructure as well as a social and cultural destination, the building will transform itself with the seasons, with the changing currents of the water, or society. It manages to be simultaneously permanent and temporary, thereby posing important questions into the qualities of temporal and how much – or little – building one can get away with to make a measurable impact in an urban environment. Deeply contextual, one can imagine that if it were to be built, it would be hard to question whether it had not been there from the start.”

3XN rejselegat

Legatet går ligeledes til Alexander Hejgaard Fagerholt. Juryen skriver:

“The winning project investigates today’s redevelopment of our cities’ central industrial areas. On the broader scale, it is an experiment of private ownership and public urban life. It challenges development controlled by market forces and suggests a new type of development inspired by urban life.

The project cleverly analyses the way the area has developed over time and gives the potential for building on top of this unique and strong industrial character. The area challenges traditional building typologies by giving the old industrial buildings a new use.”

VOLA Scholarship

Stipendiet gives til Simon Kobberup Smedsmo for projektet Holstebro Søpark, som kombinerer sportsfaciliteter og naturoplevelser ved en sø nær Holstebro. Projektet indebærer en roklub, et søbad og en række rekreative faciliteter.

Juryen skriver:

“The project radiates an architectural stringency, it is sustainable, and it operates smoothly in all scales it addresses. Simon manages to communicate his ideas, his concepts, and his design in a clear and easily understandable way. It illustrates a high level of craftsmanship and professionalism, which are the primary reasons, he is awarded the VOLA scholarship.”

CEBRA-prisen

Prisen gives til Malene Jørs Nielsen. Juryen skriver:

“CEBRA-prisen tildeles Malene Jørs Nielsen for det eftertænksomme afgangsprojekt Night Tide – Encountering natural phenomena on Mandø.

Projektets fremhæves for en præcis og smuk læsning af Mandø, der oversættes til et følsomt og minimalistisk arkitektonisk udtryk forankret i tidevandsøen Mandøs helt særlige natur. Inspireret af tidevandet, diger, høfder og den allestedsnærværende horisont og himmel, fremstår det som en ’målepind’ for tidevandets rytme over dagen, året og ved stormflod.

Projektet tilbyder et næsten poetisk møde mellem iagttageren og naturens fænomener, og de smukke illustrationer, der konsekvent benyttes, skaber velvalgte mindelser om de danske Skagensmalere og den amerikanske kunstner James Turells værker. ”
