    The groundbreaking ceremony has marked the beginning of Egmont Højskolen’s new movement park – a landscape where nature, physical activity, and community come together in an inclusive design for all.
     Firmly rooted in the everyday life of the school, the park will be closely tied to both its social and physical context. Once completed, it will be an open space for use by the entire local community.

    As part of the Irish Bog Trotters Festival, which celebrates Ireland’s vast bog landscapes, Catrine Hancke has been invited to participate in a panel discussion where she will share her experience with communicating the imprint of industrial cultural heritage in the landscape through architecture – including examples from the Troldhedestien project.
    The panel is organised by the Irish Architecture Foundation, which on the same occasion will launch a new shelter and viewing platform designed to support storytelling around the relationship between people, bogs, and cultural heritage.
    The event takes place on Friday, 20 June, in Clara, Co. Offaly, Ireland.

    On 20 May, we marked a major milestone at Ravnbakkeskolen with a topping-out ceremony. The school is part of a new learning and activity hub located in the heart of the emerging district of Nye near Aarhus.
    The project brings together a school, daycare, after-school club, youth centre, and sports facilities in one open and inclusive building designed for both everyday life and leisure.
    The landscape plays a central role in the project, with outdoor areas featuring play and learning facilities, an artificial turf field, covered roof terraces, and workshop spaces. These elements are designed to promote movement, curiosity, and activity – a core theme for the entire Nye district.

    We are part of the winning team chosen to shape the future of Juelsminde. Led by OKNygaard, the team also includes Urban Creators, Manshaus Arkitektur, and engineering firm Viggo Madsen. Together, we have developed a proposal rooted in the town’s unique identity, its surrounding nature, and strong maritime heritage. The project includes a number of experiential landmarks: a new harbour square featuring a crab arena built in brick and wood; “Pynten” – an iconic open-air hub on Storstranden designed to activate the beach and expand recreational opportunities; and a 450-metre-long wooden boardwalk connecting the town, harbour, and beach, guiding visitors through a sequence of coastal experiences.

    We’ve developed a masterplan for Ringe Syd that places the landscape at the centre of future development. Rather than expanding as a single, continuous urban area, the plan divides new housing into smaller neighbourhoods that follow the terrain and adapt to the rolling landscape south of the Sallinge River. This approach gives each neighbourhood its own identity, shaped by the surrounding nature and topography.

    The plan has now been approved by the municipal council.

    Team LYTT has won the design competition for Flodlejet Randers – a new sequence of urban and landscape spaces that will create stronger connections across the city. The project will establish a new meeting point between people, water, and nature.
    The development of Flodlejet is rooted in the city’s DNA: its urban structure, delta landscape, natural surroundings, and harbour. By drawing on these local characteristics, the project enhances Randers’ authenticity and transforms a currently undefined area into a place where nature and urban culture are interwoven. Carefully curated materials and a strong presence of nature come together to form a coherent and place-specific identity.

    The Confederation of Danish Industry highlights sØnæs as a best-practice example of climate adaptation with added value. The project is featured in the publication Before the Storm Surge, where our project Køge Dige is also presented as a strong case for effective climate resilience. At LYTT, we’re proud that our projects are helping to shape the future and serve as frontrunners in combining climate protection with recreational value – creating places that offer year-round benefits for people and nature alike.

    Every year in October, the architectural business, cultural institutions, and municipalities in Denmark celebrate and honor good architecture. This year the theme of the day was “New connections to nature”, and LYTT received the Architecture Prize for our project Troldhedestien – a nature trail that runs along a closed railway line near Kolding. The project was rewarded by the Municipality of Kolding for the functionality that lets everyone – no matter age or mobility, experience the spectacular landscape firsthand.
