Trongården
A few minutes walk from UNESCO World Heritage Site, Dyrehaven (Deer Park), ALFA Development has built a new neighbourhood that meets with the Municipality of Lyngby’s ambitions to blend housing, research, and innovation. The site is unique in so many ways – very close to nature - and world class research and academic institutions, such as the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). And then there was the historical aspect.
While it was always known that the area had historical significance, the project at Trondgården sits on a site adjacent to monuments that go back to the pre-Viking, ‘Iron age’. ALFA collaborated with the Municipality and the Kroppedal Museum to support an archaeological dig prior to development and found traces of a farmstead dating from 500 BC to 600 AD. All relevant artefacts were preserved and indeed just 500 meters away from the Trongården site, even more significant archaeological artefacts were later found.
When given the official go, the site was developed into 24.000 sqm for residential use, with 15.400 sqm for condos/townhouses which were sold and delivered; along with 8.600 sqm of rental apartments, sold to an American capital fund. The project has a strong, yet subtle identity, with a tone-on-tone aesthetic, use of tile and wood throughout. The areas between the buildings are carefully curated and encourage interaction between neighbours in the common areas.
The project has been certified by the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, the Nordics’ official ecolabel.
