Kullorsuaq - A House for Children by BIOSIS, Kullorsuaq, Greenland
BIOSIS has designed Kullorsuaq - A House for Children, a climate-sensitive multipurpose facility in Kullorsuaq, Greenland, commissioned by Avannaata Kommunia. The 1,600-square-meter building, adjacent to the local school, will serve as a preschool, youth club, and emergency housing, providing a safe and adaptable space for children and the broader community. Designed to minimize landscape impact, the structure is elevated on timber columns to preserve the natural terrain while managing rain and meltwater flow. Its circular form creates a sheltered courtyard, offering protection from Arctic winds while maximizing sunlight exposure.
