Forlagsbeskrivelse af More Than a House af Joseph G. Allen
More Than a House traces the transformation of a 1995 timber warehouse in Østbirk into LKR Innovation House – a contemporary workplace for research, development and collaboration within the VELUX Group.Originally conceived as an experiment in untreated wood, the halls were built to test whether responsibly sourced timber, carefully detailed and constructively protected, could endure. Over three decades, the structures weathered, settled and proved their resilience.Rather than demolish and rebuild, the project chose to continue the experiment. The existing volume was opened, courtyards cut into the deep plan, daylight drawn inward. Timber structures, concrete floors and façade modules were dismantled, adapted and reused, allowing the building’s past to remain present in its renewed form.
