Timber residential care facility providing a safe environment for everyday life

The Søndersø Residential Care Facility in Værløse is surrounded by deciduous trees, with direct access from the homes to the outdoor areas. It provides a safe environment for young people who need support in their daily lives but who, in time, should be able to live more independently.

The building was designed by Juul & Hansen Arkitekter and constructed as a timber house with a calm, homely appearance. The project is also part of a research project on fire-safe timber houses, with particular attention paid to materials and construction solutions.

Climate and environmental considerations have been incorporated into both the building services and the choice of materials. These include insulation, interior paint, solar panels and roof cladding.

Documented focus in the construction

The Søndersø Residential Care Facility has achieved DGNB Gold certification. The certification assesses the building according to several criteria, including its environmental, social and economic qualities.

Nordic Klikfals made from GreenCoat® steel by SSAB was used for the roof cladding. Some of the conventional fossil oil in the colour coating has been replaced with Swedish rapeseed oil.

The roof protects the building from the elements while providing a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution. At the Søndersø Residential Care Facility, the steel cladding is therefore part of a building in which function, documentation and everyday life have been closely integrated.
