Mulithouse Stenløse
The Multihouse is driven by the ambition to strengthen social cohesion by improving access to recreational activities. Rather than separating generations, it creates shared spaces where everyday activities overlap naturally. It offers room for both play, activity, and calm, and is designed as a flexible resource that can be used year-round by schools, associations, families, and informal visitors alike.
Supporting diverse needs
Children and young people, which includes the local scout groups, benefit from facilities that encourage outdoor learning, exploration, and collaboration.
At the same time, special emphasis has been placed on creating meaningful nature experiences for people with dementia, offering a sensory-rich environment that can promote presence, well-being, and everyday joy.
In this way, The Multihouse supports a wide range of needs while encouraging shared stewardship of the landscape.

Human and nature in symbiosis
A formerly underutilized office area has undergone a comprehensive modernization and expansion, transforming it into a highly functional workspace. The renovation includes new windows, ceilings, walls, and floors, along with updated amenities such as toilets, showers, and a kitchen to improve daily operations.
Additionally, a second level has been introduced, effectively doubling the available space and providing new office and meeting rooms to accommodate a growing number of users. With access via both internal and external staircases, the redesigned layout enhances the workspace’s flexibility and usability, ensuring a more efficient and adaptable environment.
