Lars Gitz Architects BaseCamp Lyngby Student Housing
BaseCamp Lyngby Student Housing is Golden Design Award winner in 2019 - 2020 Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award Category.
BaseCamp Lyngby Student Housing

Student campus BaseCamp Lyngby is built on a relatively flat site while being well integrated into green Lyngby neighborhood. The building rises slowly from ground level to the maximum height of six floors, inviting both inhabitants and visitors to enjoy the multiple green courtyards or to take a stroll along the serpentine path running in full length at the roof. Great views and gardens make for an interesting walk in the park like landscape. The curved shape of the building wraps around smaller courtyards creating well defined intimate spaces for the students to meet, read or simply relax.

BaseCamp Student

BaseCamp Student began as a response to the lack of design-led student housing across Europe. Founder and CEO Armon Bar-Tur envisioned a merging of American community-focused living and European aesthetics and design and amenities. They enlisted Berlin-based industrial designers Studio Aisslinger for the interior. The style is kept modern with splashes of color in key areas. Student housing has often been a forgotten endeavor in Europe, with buildings converted to university use without considering the needs and desires of students. BaseCamp aims to change that by designing spaces with students in mind, both in terms of facilities and aesthetics.
