Praksis Arkitekter was assigned to reconstruct the barn from the 1870s to a small cultural centre. The distinctive curved roof rafters were reconstructed by bolting a number of thin layers of timber together to form a single laminated structure.

The terrazzo is cast in a single piece and covers the entire floor of 300sqm and is special developed for Slotfelt Barn by Praksis.

To make this less noisy in the clean surroundings, three movable boxes were made of black fiberglass to contain a small cinema, toilets and a digital projector showing the national treasure the Golden Horns found in the nearby area. Slotfelt Barn is a reinvention of the old, traditional architecture and adds a platform for further information about the Danish culture history.
