Frame House I / Jespersen Nodtvedt
Frame House I is a single-family house situated in the old part of Copenhagen's southern harbor, originally inhabited by the dockworkers. The area is characterized by an ensemble of small-scale buildings; workshops and living units of self-built houses and architectural experiments. The infill-house is tucked in between two existing buildings with three wooden frames spanning in between the neighboring houses. With a critical approach towards sustainability trends, the house is the office's first project to explore the idea of a structural frame system independent of the climate screen, doing so with a reinterpretation of a traditional Danish half-timbered house.
