About the Exhibition
Venturing into storms, sub-zero temperatures and endless winter nights in the Arctic regions, from Greenland to Iceland and Svalbard, 28 Master’s students at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture (KADK), The Institute of Architecture and Technology explored new forms of spatial languages to enrich our built environments and daily lives through their own constructions and prototypes. Collaborating closely with local communities, the students’ work engages in enhancing critical architectural performance, sustainability and resilience.
