The development of the Fjord City of Lier and Drammen is one of the largest ongoing urban development projects in Norway. LINK Arkitektur is behind the city concept and preparation of the area plan. The assignment aims to become a model project for sustainable urban development at an international level. The fjord town will be attractive, urban, and sustainable - a place where people, the fjord, and the future meet.
In an early development phase of the project we run a series of parametric studies and analysis in collaboration with our friends from CIL (https://cities.ait.ac.at/site/) from the AIT in Vienna.
These analysis helped us to simulate the performance of the urban development and qualify our early design proposals.
