Abstract
Jane Briginshaw visits a housing scheme in northern Jutland, where the use of timber has tackled concrete's stranglehold over the Danish building industry. A mixed-used scheme, providing social housing and provision for a local cooperative of the marina's sailing-club members, it caters in its internal planning to occupants' needs. Despite being architecturally accomplished, is its cool anonymity devoid of the ‘wow’ factor that Brits are starting to expect from newbuild? Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
