Brinken Terrace
Tromsø, Kingdom of Norway
Brinken Terrace has a prominent location on the top of the Tromsø Island with views towards all directions. The area is sun exposed at all hours and have direct access to the green area that stretches along the Tromsø island. In the completed outdoor areas many of the existing trees and other vegetation are being preserved, in addition, there has been planted more vegetation as birch trees, rose and berry bushes etc. The area between and around the buildings is composed by varied playing and outdoor recreation areas for the residents. It has for instance a small field for playing ball, various playgrounds and a sunbath/barbecue area. There is also a football field with artificial turf in the neighborhood which also is part of the project.
The project was completed in 2009. The total area of the project is approx. 8100 m2 which includes the underground parking. The two blocks are in principle similar, with increasing height from two floors to the west towards the existing residential housing in Brinkveien street, and up to five floors towards the east and north.
In the planning phase, the future residents cooperated with the architect on the design of the apartments, this led to customized and unique apartments. Overall, the project consists of 48 flats of varying size from 36 to 196 m2. The adjusted approach in the flats’ design in the blocks gives variation in the window placements and facade expression. Both blocks have open and bright entrance halls, two staircases, two elevators, and underground parking with direct access and storage rooms. The blocks are connected by the common parking and outdoor areas.
All apartments have secluded private terraces or balconies. From the second storey and up the balconies are drawn into the building to provide as good microclimate as possible, which is important in the arctic climate. The apartments in the front have large west-facing roof terraces. The height of the ceiling in all apartments is 2.7 m, and the large windows frame the spectacular views of the mountains of Kvaløya island to the west, Malangen mountains to the south and Tromsdalstind mountain to the east. Most apartments have views in at least two directions, while the largest apartments have a 360° panoramic view.
The construction system is steel columns in the facade with concrete decks, and internal load-bearing concrete walls. The facades are covered by 200mm wide boards of impregnated pine and in the balcony niches gray laminate plates are used.
