Commended residential project
The highly commended housing project in Jelling is concentrated around the gardens, which have provided the inspiration for the buildings; the gardens are laid out with a variety of fruit trees and a sculptural garden wall which winds through the development as a contemporary town wall. The houses have the appearance of white, clear-cut volumes, and are loosely concentrated in six clusters.

The Gardens are currently under construction.
