The goal of Youth Center Roskilde is to create a flexible , varied daily life space for children and adults.

From the architects:

The main approach is to make a new interpretation of the red barn buildings and fishermen cabins of the old part of the village where the building is located. The extension to the old building starts where the building takes a turn making a more intimate feeling surrounding the outdoor play areas…..
