The Light Bulb, Aabenraa – Jutland Adult Education Center
The Light Bulb, named after an old light bulb factory, that previously occupied part of the site, is a renovation and extension of an adult education center in the southern part of Jutland, Denmark.
The school has, with the new extension, finished in the autumn of 2017, doubled in size and has become a modern, school building, with a diverse variety of learning spaces.
The renovated school was originally built in the 1950s as a traditional, technical school. Gradually the school had become too small to accommodate the number of students, and it had grown increasingly out of touch with modern learning principles. As a consequence of this, the school purchased the neighboring building to the north, a historic light bulb factory, “Dansk Glødelampefabrik A/S”, to make an extension possible. The purchase and demolition of the historic factory was allowed under the condition, that the eastern facade of the factory would be preserved and integrated in the new school extension.
The finished result is a unique blend of history, contemporary architecture, and modern learning principles.
The atmosphere in and around the building is on the one hand unmistaka...
