The project has based itself in the assumption of the plot as the basic unit in a suburban neighbourhood. To face a pressure to densify, it proposes to densify through the subdivision of existing plots. On the existing plots, new houses are added on new plots subdivided from the existing plots. The new buildings are dimensioned, placed and shaped to give a character of place more akin to a village in the city than either the suburban neighbourhood or the urban street.

My pre-diploma started with a fascination for the japanese tea house, and a closer look at four cases. When the diploma semester started I continued with an investiga¬tion of different situations and spatial solutions that I found in these cases. 
My intention was never to do a tea house, but a translation based on the qualities that I found in the tea houses. I thought that a bakery could be a good situation to study the relationship between a guest and a host, and I added a mill, a house for the baker and a guest house to the program.

This is a proposal for an Innovation Center in Mandal, a coastal town in the south of Norway. The project builds on an interest for buildings that are both one and many - clear entities combined into a whole.  

This interest led to the choice of site and program; a site which is a collage - a patchwork of industrial buildings on a flat river delta. A program which is also a collage: work and education collocated to share knowledge and resources.

The library is a unique place in that it is perhaps the only building where people are incredibly aware of sound without expecting to hear anything.

We don't really have a separate set of words to describe the qualities of sound. It is a completely separate sense, yet the language we use to describe sound still gets its vocabulary from the visual and physical world.
This makes it difficult to describe sound accurately and that which is difficult to describe tends to become secondary to things that are clear and unambiguous.

The Norwegian people have relied on the sea for thousands of years. Fishing was the historical foundation for settlement along the Northern coast, dating back to the Stone Age. Less than 40 years ago, the fish production facility was the center of existence for these villages. However since 1900, great structural changes have taken place, challenging the post-war architecture with a growing capitalized industry driven by improved efficiency.

The typology of the warehouse is changing in contemporary economy. No longer simply a traditional, container-like shelter for the storage of goods, it offers a range of new services in order to be a profitable part of a logistic chain. 

The duality between storage and additional programs is emphasized in the design. The storage makes up the core of the building, around which are supporting facilities such as a showroom, lobby, coffee bar and offices.

QUAERO is a concept of a modular mono-copter drone designed for search operations. Distinctive feature of the drone is the possibility to combine several drones into one unit and separate to parts upon arrival to search area. This allows to cover more search territory in less time, which can play a huge role in a Search and Rescue operation. 

The drone combines VTOL and hover function, and has aerodynamic qualities required for fast and energy efficient travel

The main goal of this project is to increase the opportunities of intergenerational interaction in order to enrich retirees’ social life in the near future.

I started with broad research, and then narrowed it down to the specific design proposal. Through my design process and methods I developed the application- Together, using “same interest” as the connection between old and young, creating a digital tool for retirees to hold their preferred activities for the younger people to join.

Lumet is interaction design project which helps cyclist riding on the street. It provides more clear information which is like the car indicator to the other road users.  Utilizing people’s hand signal to be the trigger to give other road users indicator signal. This project creates a new way communication between the cyclists and the other road users.
