Inexperienced Resolution Home 2.0 / 3XN + GXN

Textual content description supplied by the architects. Inexperienced Resolution Home 2.0 is Denmark´s first full timber lodge, positioned within the city of Rønne on the Island of Bornholm. Developed in very shut collaboration between 3XN and GXN the lodge’s design is rooted in rigorous sustainability rules in supplies, building, and efficiency.

Chosen, partly, for its unequalled sustainability credentials and skill to lock away carbon, timber is the first building materials and offers the lodge’s construction, cladding, and insulation. The design exposes and celebrates the fastidiously chosen supplies all through the constructing, and that is instantly evident on arrival from the nice and cozy pure aesthetic of the timber cladding. The principle components of the constructing, together with the partitions and slabs, are composed of enormous, prefabricated cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels manufactured in a manufacturing facility and easily assembled on-site. This methodology minimizes building time, prices, and waste and ensures a excessive diploma of accuracy in manufacturing.

The design is impressed by the Cradle-to-Cradle life cycle idea. It additional exploits the excessive accuracy and repeatable strategy of the computer-controlled fabrication methodology to include bespoke options at a a lot decrease value than conventional building strategies. Options reminiscent of elegant grills for pure air flow are minimize immediately into the CLT panels, demonstrating the advantage of a holistic design method and the synergy between design, manufacturing, and efficiency. The standardized design of the models additionally allowed the designers to fastidiously predict the size and amount of fabric offcuts, which might in any other case go to waste, and use them to create bespoke furnishings objects for the lodge.  On this means, the constructing itself is an expression of the lodge’s ambition to make inexperienced options a pretty factor for company.

Internally, uncovered CLT panels proceed the ethos of sincere materials finishes and supply a welcoming home character to the areas and constant dialogue between exterior and inside.

A rooftop terrace and spa present company with a quiet retreat overlooking the adjoining woodland. Right here, timber finishes are complemented by tiles of upcycled glass from native sources, offering a palette of supplies reflective of the constructing’s deal with environmental sustainability. On this means, GSH2.0 stands as a showcase for materials innovation, demonstrating that different round options can present an aesthetic high quality and efficiency similar to virgin materials whereas providing the additional advantage of a a lot decrease carbon footprint. 

In 2022, Inexperienced Resolution Home 2.0 was named the winner of Denmark’s Årets Byggeri (‘Constructing of the 12 months’)– one of many main architectural awards in Denmark. It’s the uncompromising growth of the adjoining Inexperienced Resolution Home accomplished by 3XN/GXN in 2015 – itself a winner of Årets Byggeri in 2015.
