This housing project is part of the larger urban masterplan 'The Funen Park', also designed by de Architekten Cie. The urban plan in characterized by an inner area with sufficient green space, a park-like area with smaller building typologies. This inner-space is surrounded by these large scale mixed use buildings. The peripheral construction protects the inner area and also serves as a sound barrier against noise from the railway. Four small gates, which adjoin the entrance halls, and one large gateway provides access to and view of the inner area. The peripheral construction was designed by a single architect. The contrast between the peripheral construction and the inner area enlivens the whole complex.
