Information | The city of Landskrona has identified four different areas around the city as especially important for the future development of the city. Borstahusen, a 17:th century fishing village, located in the north of Landskrona, was given top priority on a political level as a way of diversifying the social structure of the city as a whole and attract new residents. The site was a formerly used for camping and golf, but due to the proximity to Borstahusen and good connectivity to the surrounding infrastructure, it was decided that the area was better used for other purposes and that the camping and golf could be relocated to a different area. The design proposal aims at creating natural extension of the adjacent fishing village and adapts itself in scale and volume to the local building tradition. The street structure, and the typical fishing village block pattern, is extended towards the north. The blocks are subdivided into small building plots which are based on the size which can be found in the old part of Borstahusen. Sitelines and views are taken into account as each row of houses is taller than the one in front to be able to guarantee that all new buildings have a view of Öresund at its surrounding. The area is currently being under construction. |
