NUUK MASTERPLAN

Nuuk, Greenland

We were invited to be part of the team that would design and deliver a masterplan for Nuuk, under the direction of Dahl og Uhre Architects, led by Urbanism professor Knut Eirik Dahl. The project was comissioned by the Government of Greenland, with the focus of replacing the old and worn down army style baracks housing areas in Nuuk with new housing, which would be designed to respond both to the particular demographics and needs of the residents of Nuuk, as well as the harsh climatic conditions of the site.

The masterplan won the prize for best Nordic Masterplan.
