Villa Tranemo­sevej

Although it is 7 years old, the semi-detached house in Ballerup is still a detached house with solu­tions that are attrac­tive and ambi­tious by today’s standards.

The two family homes comply with the passive house prin­ci­ples. Both are 200 m² have a very low energy consump­tion and are built in strict archi­tec­tural lines and with care­fully selected mate­ri­als. Hundreds of narrow wooden panels cover the facade of the house on the 1st floor and create a warm expres­sion and excit­ing contrast to the brick facade of the ground floor.

“A clear and qual­i­fied archi­tec­tural answer to the ques­tion of how we renew and continue in the tradi­tional detached house quar­ter”. This was the ratio­nale for an award the project received in 2018 from Ballerup Munic­i­pal­ity. They espe­cially think it was appeal­ing that the semi-detached house was created with an aspect for both commu­nity and indi­vid­u­al­ism. The two fami­lies know each other when you come and go from the home with a common entrance and park­ing, but at the same time each can have their privacy in the homes and their mutual gardens.
