The students, from some of Scandinavia’s finest architectural institutes, were invited to explore how the future could look for businesses, cultural venues, healthcare, hospitality, and educational facilities.
Kristin Erlendsdottir (Konstfack, Sweden) and Louise Holsing Odden (NTNU, Norway) got the chance to showcase their vision of how our buildings of tomorrow can nurture people’s productivity, wellbeing, and creativity – without compromising sustainability.
The idea was presented at the Stockholm Furniture Fair and also presented at Clerkenwell Design Week in London.
Embrace is a new approach to hospital design that focuses on social connections, healing, and wellbeing. The design explores the boundaries between private and public, using colour, form, light, and acoustics to create a space that is functional, playful and stimulating.
