Competition Proposal for Møller Eiendom | CODE Arkitektur
As Project Lead at CODE Arkitektur, I led the development of this competition proposal for Møller Eiendom, from the initial concept and architectural ideas through sketches and design development.
My concept was built around a strong contrast between Ensjø’s industrial heritage and a hidden, enchanting garden. The characteristic arches were inspired by the area’s industrial history, creating a robust and urban exterior, while the courtyard was imagined as a completely different world.
Inspired by Alice in Wonderland, the garden becomes an unexpected escape within the city — lush, playful and immersive, filled with greenery, flowers and moments of discovery.
I developed the architectural concept, including the arches and courtyard idea, and produced the drawings and design sketches that formed the basis of the proposal. The final visualisations were produced by a professional third-party visualisation studio, under my creative direction and based on my concepts, sketches and feedback.
The result is a project built around contrast: industrial and protective on the outside, soft, green and almost dreamlike within.
