06_Larvik Folkepark

Competition entry for harbour development in Larvik in southern Norway. We believe that the future of Larvik’s harbour is dependent on two seemingly contradictory yet equitable factors. Firstly it must have a strong and clearly defined identity. Secondly, it must facilitate a great variety and diversity of uses. This leads us to a problem. What examples of urban design are clearly defined and recognisable, and yet also flexible to change? We believe that the solution lies in a multileveled response. An overarching project of unity that facilitates several micro-projects.

What is this futuristic and mind-bending solution you ask?

A people's park is our answer.
