Lange Eng Adaptations
Lange Eng Adaptation Case
The whole idea of Lange Eng is of communal housing, that includes a communal garden that all units face at the back, communal kitchen, playroom, dining and multi-purpose spaces.
In interviews conducted by the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Art, one of the main issues raised was that it was very homogenous, as there are
mainly families with small children living there, despite having a design goal to include all types of families, either of seniors, single parents or single living.
Keeping that in mind I’ve decided to design for a nuclear family with the grandparents moving in into one dwelling and a single parent and child in the other dwelling, all under the same unit. As well us designing with minimal changes to the already established structure and layout and giving access to the back communal garden to both dwellings.
