The architectural concept was founded on the ambition to bring the landscape through the building, both east–west from the main entry to the courtyard and south–north through the courtyard.

The location of the centre is not only convenient, but also beautiful, situated between pine-clad hills. Making the best use of the scenery, resident rooms face the forest, whilst heart zones and living spaces on the residential floors face an outdoor courtyard. It was essential to arrange all outdoor areas along the natural contours of the landscape, to provide some sheltered areas that are private and some that are more open and inclusive.

The ground floor serves as the community space for residents and neighbours to meet and mingle, both outside and inside. The more private residential floors are grouped around the heart zone – there are two residential groups per heart zone with a central staircase and elevator and there are two heart zones per floor facing the inner courtyard with multiple areas for socialising and relaxing. Each residential area has 10 residential rooms and a shared living room, kitchen and dining area with access to a private terrace.

The interior is designed with large openings for maximum daylight, and with solid and tactile materials such as solid wood walls, beams and columns. The facade is also made of wood, characterised by a simple module which is repeated throughout the envelope This module is formed as a frame which represents the inner structure of horizontal floors and vertical CLT-walls/columns. The infill of the frame comes with different variations depending on the rooms behind, for example, there are windows for private rooms that look out onto the neighbours and generous glass curtain walls for the collective spaces that faces to the internal courtyard.

The project's high sustainability ambitions include an emissions-free construction site, FutureBuilt nZEB, BREEAM-NOR Excellent and the use of recycled and reused materials.
