The project "On Belonging" examines the way we evaluate and develop existing buildings, and the importance of architecture as a cultural reminder of where we were, where we are and where we're going.
The project itself is a transformation of the old pathological institute and chapel in Frederiksberg Hospital. A main focus of mine has been to preserve the existing phenomenological qualities of the building that evolves around the handeling of dead bodies - in both a practical and a spiritual way, and how to interpret these qualities to the new function as a community centre that evolves around living bodies - living people.
Everyone is the other, and no one is himself. The they, which supplies the answer to the who of everyday Da-sein (being), is the nobody to whom every Da-sein (being) has always already surrendered itself, in it's being-amongst-one-another"

To find the way forward one must also know the way back, in the hope that somewhere in between, in the now, there exists a place of belonging. "
