Starring Trondheim! Urban redevelopment plan
Starring Trondheim! provides a planning tool for future development
towards a new waterfront. Starting point for every development is a
specific intervention in the existing situation: the ‘Stars’. The stars
are always based on a cultural implementation in a specific building on a
strategic location. These revitalized hotspots create opportunities and
attract people. The Stars run ahead and clear the way for the
redevelopment of the Nyhavna District and leave their track visible in
the final result.
Close analysis of the current context and the connections to the
surrounding landscape made it possible to embed the new urban plan fully
in the existing urban fabric. This makes it possible for the city to
carry out the redevelopment in phases.
The current and historical identity of the areas is used in the urban
plan as a starting point. The identities are strengthened in the new
plan and a distinct division between the small-scale housing of
Svartlamoen area and the large-scale harbour buildings is the result.
Responding to precise planning terms both areas will flourish in their
own way.
A mix of culture, work and housing provides a qualitative and healthy
urban environment for all the Trondheim residents with their different
lifestyles.
