Architecture competitions

In the 1928 international competition for the extension of the Stockholm City Library by Gunnar Asplund , the hitherto unknown Hanada prevailed against over a thousand international architects with its Delphinium design and won first prize in 2008. “Heike Hanada had proposed [...] tearing down the annex buildings and placing the new building as far away as possible from the Asplund building. They stacked the space program on nine floors - just as high as the Asplund rotunda. The space in between is taken up by a single-storey building that is reminiscent of the market hall that Asplund planned at this point. "( Eleonore Harmel, in: Bauwelt )

Heike Hanada first came into contact with Asplund's architecture in the 1980s. She wrote about her design:

“The property is of a type that will be common in the future, with less and less land left over. There are a number of decisions to be made about what to demolish and how to or should adapt as it builds. It is a difficult balancing act in which it is easy to draw conservative conclusions. When a new building stands next to a new one, the different periods are articulated, the new enriches the old and vice versa, creating a powerful whole. "

In 2009 she won the international competition The Nine Foot Square Problem under the jury of Rafael Moneo .

In 2010 she received an Honorable Mention for the design of the Jarvä Cemetery (as a counterpart to the famous Skogskyrkogården by Asplund) in Stockholm .

In 2011 she gained in collaboration with Benedict Tonon second place for the competition design of a restaurant in the World Heritage Site of Sanssouci Park in Potsdam .

In 2012, also in collaboration with Benedict Tonon, she received first prize in the international architecture competition for a new Bauhaus museum in Weimar .

Since 2013 she has been working independently on the realization of the new Bauhaus Museum Weimar, the opening of which took place on April 5, 2019.
