Description

Bassin 7 is a huge urban regeneration project in the Århus area in Denmark. Architects SLETH, GEHL and BIG have together with developers, Anpartsselskabet Kilden og Mortensen, Bassin 7 Erhverv ApS and Bassin 7 Bolig Aps developed an entire urban area. As part of this also the water front activities have been lifted to new hights and the Ø4 Byliv area is now buzzing with multiple cafees and other city functions. In this long line of smaller houses, there was a strong focus on biobased, direct reused and industrially upcycled products. Within the last category, we at a:gain, have delivered upcycled Bronsø facade cladding and upcycled Dybø acoustic boards made of PET-bottles.
