Green Solution House 2.0 is a hotel in Rønne on the Danish island of Bornholm. Developed in close collaboration between 3XN and GXN, it extends the adjoining Green Solution House completed in 2015, with sustainability built into its materials, construction and performance.
Timber, chosen in part for its ability to lock away carbon, provides the structure, cladding and insulation. The materials are left exposed throughout, and the warm timber façade sets the tone from the moment you arrive.

01
Kit of parts
A standard kit of simple box-like units, set at an angle, makes up the volume. The arrangement forms the serrated façade and gives every room a private, enclosed balcony with views to the landscape.
02
Prefabricated timber
Walls and slabs are large cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels, made in a factory and simply assembled on site. This cuts construction time, cost and waste, and keeps production highly accurate.
03
Made to measure
The repeatable fabrication process makes bespoke details cheap. Grills for natural ventilation are cut straight into the CLT panels, and predictable offcuts are turned into furniture for the hotel.
