Additive Neighbourhoods - The Fredensborg Houses by Jørn Utzon

Fredensborghusene: The Fredensborg Houses followed Utzon's first major housing project, the Kingo Houses in nearby Helsingør. The 63 units were based on a competition project Utzon had developed for the south of Sweden in 1953, inspired by traditional Danish farmhouses set around a central courtyard and Chinese architecture, in which the houses open out onto a central court but are protected from the surroundings by their outer wall.

Love the format. Would be better if video explained what exactly did Utzon draw from chinese architecture. I think a contextual approach that adresses specifics (environment, inspiration etc.) explain projects better.

Thanks for the feedback! I will keep these in mind for future vids.
