Roskilde Municipality Wins Brolæggerprisen 2026 //

On Thursday, 22 October, Mayor Tomas Breddam accepted Brolæggerprisen 2026 (The Paving Award) on behalf of Roskilde Municipality in recognition of the renewal of Hestetorvet.

“We are proud to be recognised for advancing the aims of the award that are developing, strengthening and raising the profile of the paving trade. We are also delighted that the award recognises solutions that point the way towards the future of paving and public spaces,” says Thomas Breddam.

In their motivation, the jury highlights Roskilde Municipality’s achievement in combining the development of a green and vibrant city centre with a reduced carbon footprint, while safeguarding the core values of traditional paving craftsmanship.

Sune Oslev, partner at MASU Planning, highlights the circular, green and recreational aspects of the project.

“As the client, Roskilde Municipality’s focus on reuse established ambitious parameters for the project. Our collaboration with the main contractor, Scheller, Hougaard & Petersen, therefore involved not only creating a new urban space, but also adapting working methods and logistics to retain as many of the existing resources as possible. Close collaboration with the municipality and contractor has made it possible to reduce the carbon footprint without compromising the ambition to introduce more greenery and enhance the space’s recreational value.”

Climate Courtyard at Statholdervej //

More greenery, increased biodiversity, improved recreational opportunities, new play areas and rainwater management designed to accommodate a 10-year cloudburst event.

We’ve just put the finishing touches on the Climate Courtyard at Statholdervej in Copenhagen.

The design brings the courtyard together as a single space, with a beautiful, durable paved surface along the façades and a unified sunken green area in the centre for relaxation, play and temporary rainwater retention.

Along the eastern edge of the green area, an approximately 20-metre-long, 40-centimetre-high retaining wall doubles as a bench, providing west-facing seating ideal for enjoying the afternoon sun.

To the south, a rain garden will collect water during cloudbursts.

Transforming Malminkartanonhuippu //

Tranquillity in nature, a variety of opportunities for physical activity, and unique outdoor experiences.

Over the next few years, the City of Helsinki will implement the long-awaited improvements to Malminkartanonhuippu, or Malminkartano Hill.

Based on the city’s detailed local plan adopted in 2023, MASU Planning will help the city turn its vision into reality by transforming the landfill hill and its surrounding recreational areas into a diverse, attractive and high-quality destination for outdoor recreation and physical activity.

Landskabsrådet in Odense //

Last week, Malin Blomqvist and Nicolai Cramer Almdal had the pleasure of guiding participants at Landskabsrådet’s networking event in Odense through H.C. Andersen’s Garden.

Malin highlighted the interplay between the museum buildings and the garden, as well as the ambition to create a variety of spaces that convey the sensibilities of Andersen’s fairy tales.

Nicolai discussed the construction solutions and explained how the landscape contractors had to navigate between the building contractors in a very confined space.

Susanne Grunkin, City Architect of Odense, and Lisbeth Feldskou, landscape architect and urban developer at Odense, presented the ideas competition for the upcoming transformation of the former Odense University Hospital site.

They emphasised the importance of maintaining the original landscape ambitions throughout a development process spanning several decades – and are well aware that it will take a focused effort.

After lunch, Anne Ramborg, landscape architect at Odense Municipality, presented some of the new public spaces in central Odense. It was impressive to see how the transformation of Thomas B. Thriges Gade has completely reshaped the city centre.

The final stop was Nonnebakken, where Bo Hune presented the ambitions for the UNESCO site.

A big thank you to Landskabsrådet for the opportunity to present H.C. Andersen’s Garden, to Odense Kommune for an inspiring afternoon, and to everyone who took part!

Celebrating 80 years of Finnish Landscape Architecture //

Last week, our very own Malin Blomqvist and Elina Kataja took part in MARK’s 80th anniversary celebration.

In her keynote, ‘Landscape Architecture in a Nordic Context –
Shared Values and Distinctive Practices’, Malin argued that the Nordic countries share many of the same challenges and potentials.

Through a selection of MASU Planning projects from Finland, Denmark, Sweden and Norway, she showcased how landscape architecture can address societal challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, increasing segregation and the decline of small towns.

Malin highlighted sense of ownership, the reuse of materials, increased green infrastructure and user involvement as some of the measures that can create added value.

Elina Kataja moderated a roundtable discussion with keynote speakers Prof. Dr. Lisa Diedrich (TU Berlin), Peter Veenstra (LOLA Landscape Architects), and Bjørn Ginman (SLA) on the future of landscape architecture.

MARK’s 80th anniversary celebration coincided with the Nordic landscape associations assembly, and Malin took the opportunity to give attendees of both events a guided tour of Töölönlahdenpuisto.

Thank you MARK, for the invitation, and congratulations your 80th anniversary – we’re looking forward to the next eight decades!

Landscape as a defining structural element //

“For perhaps this is precisely where landscape architecture has one of its most important roles to play today. Not by adding green pockets to the city, but by allowing nature to become the structure from which the city grows.

When biodiversity, climate adaptation, health and community become the starting point for development, new opportunities emerge for creating resilient and vibrant urban environments.” – Stephan Gustin on Sundparken

In his latest column, Stephan Gustin, Chair of Danske Landskabsarkitekter / The Danish Association of Landscape Architects, writes about the ideas competition for the current Odense University Hospital site.

Through the competition, Freja Ejendomme, Realdania By & Byg and Odense Kommune sought to invite a broad range of voices into the conversation about the future of the hospital area, once the hospital is relocated to the new OUH.

Our competition entry, Sundparken, was developed by Lendager, Holst Engineering, Ekolab and MASU Planning.

Opening of the Bicycle Playground in Roskilde //

Last week, Tomas Breddam, Mayor of Roskilde, and Claus Larsen, Chair of the Planning and Technical Committee, inaugurated the new Bicycle Playground in Roskilde.

The playground teaches children in kindergarten and the youngest school pupils how to ride their bicycles. It features beginner lanes, technical lanes, and a fast lane for more adventurous riders. At the centre of the playground is a round bench for relaxing, eating lunch, and simply hanging out.

The Bicycle Playground is the latest addition to Byens Haver – an ambitious project transforming the southwestern part of Roskilde through a human-scaled landscape concept that fosters social interaction, strengthens local identity, and creates new green connections, while also addressing biodiversity and climate change.

Where Imagination Meets Reality //

“It is easy to understand why H.C. Andersen’s Garden won the prestigious Danish Landscape Award. The design is captivating and sparks the visitor’s curiosity through subtle elements drawn from the author’s magical world. Here, reality meets imagination, as the urban space, the park and the garden themselves become the museum.” – Cecilia Karlsson.

H.C. Andersen’s House and Garden is featured in the latest edition of the Swedish magazine Tidskriften Landskap.

Cecilia Karlsson has interviewed Malin Blomqvist, visited the garden and written an article about how the adventurous garden reflects the themes and moods of the author’s stories, blurs the boundaries between inside and outside, and has become a strong symbol of Odense, Denmark’s third-largest city.

We appreciate your interest, and we are happy that you enjoyed your visit to the garden.
