Bellahøj all year round. Unifying through urban nature using a time-based approach.

Abstract: Bellahøj is an area situated in the northwestern part of Copenhagen, Denmark, 5 km away from the inner city. Considering its architectural heritage, abundance of green capital, a wide variety of resident groups and a convenient location, it has a great potential for being a well-functioning neighbourhood, yet, there seems to be a missing piece of puzzle that causes Bellahøj to feel fragmented and somewhat forgotten. Bellahøjmarken, the project site, which turns into a private campground for 3 months a year and remains an undefined, fenced off field the rest of the time, seems to have a lot to do with that. The project aims to explore how Bellahøjmarken could unify the neighbourhood and become its year-round asset by activating through new built structure, transforming the existing green structure and employing nature-driven programming using a time-based approach.
