3 Fiber rooms: (LARGE)

The PhD thesis entitled 'RUM - The fibre-reinforced polymer composites in architectural context' introduces the building art form-led by an advanced composite with a focus on the relationship between space, material and light. Through an experimental study in different scale levels, the thesis investigates the integration of FRP (Fibre Reinforced Polymers) in the art of building as a particular material geometry, focusing on the internal composition between the two material components of the composite: fibre (reinforcement) and matrix (mass).

The aim is to seek new ways of composing the tectonic principles of fibre geometry with textile, fluid and form-directed properties in the production of a translucent material logic for the architectural space, element and assembly. The thesis is carried out as an artistic development between three partners - 'KHR Architecture' (practice), 'Fiberline' (industry) and 'The Royal Academy - IBT - Institute of Building Art and Technology' (research). Finally, the thesis has been produced with the support of Innovation Fund, Realdania and Frits Schlegel scholarship.

Extension of University College Copenhagen – client consultancy

KHR Architecture is the client’s consultant for University College Copenhagen in connection with the development of new facilities at KP Campus Nørrebro, where the first phase comprises a new building for the health care programmes. The forthcoming development is intended to provide modern and flexible facilities for teaching, practical training and simulation, as well as attractive study, social and working environments. As the client’s consultant, alongside Spangenberg & Madsen, we will assist KP throughout the project’s development and help ensure a sound basis for the decisions that will shape the forthcoming construction project.

'The Children’s Hospital' is back

The Norwegian documentary series *Barnesykehuset* returns with a new series from Glasblokkene in Bergen. The first series was a huge hit with viewers, and now the series continues with new stories from life at the children’s and young people’s hospital. For KHR, the series also offers a unique insight into our architecture in use. The camera follows children, families and staff through the hospital’s spaces and shows how daylight, views, nature and space for everyday life form part of daily life at Glasblokkene.
