Krøgenes peninsula

XJ116 - KRØGENES PENINSULA

Our vision is to tear down the asphalt and restore the natural habitat in and around Krøgenes for people and nature to thrive together.We propose to reestablish the old lake, creating a lush lake meadow as an entry point to Krøgenes. The recreation of the lake together with the existing shoreline will define Krøgenes in a new way, as a peninsula. A peninsula where nature and inhabitants coexist with beautiful vistas of coastline and landscape. The existing plateaus are reused to create new dwellings while the different elevations create diverse neighborhoods which are all interconnected via the new Green Loop. The neighborhoods are given gathering points to create a strong sense of belonging to a strong local community. Our approach is holistic, defined by 8 strategies to transform Krøgenes to a green-blue Peninsula where inhabitants and nature thrive.
