MIXX 2010 DANMARK Építész Mesteriskola XX. Ciklus | dániai kirándulás | 2010.05.30 -2010.06.05

Útelőzetes ( két idézet ) Szeged – Temesvár Szlovénia, Ljubljana Regéc – Kassa – Jászó – Csicsó – Torma Burgenland – Bécs külső kerületek – Fertő-tó északi része után miért Dánia – Koppenhága ? Mert ez volt a XX. ciklus átgondolt? ösztönös? kívánsága. Tegyünk pontot az elmúlt két év munkáira, a közös együttlétre, gondolkodásra, egy olyan építészeti kép megragadására a mi Európánkban, ami – úgy tűnik – közös kívánság és öröm. Legyen ! mondotta hallgató, tanár, fiatal és idősebb, és jómagam is. Miért is Skandinávia ? És erre, elemzés helyett tőlem tömör, de mégis meggondolt válasz Weöres Sándortól a költőtől. (Weöres Sándor: Versek a hagyatékból IV. ceruzával írt kézirat, a vers 1971-ben keletkezett.) „ Skandinávia népeihez Üdv nektek, észak angyali polgárai, kik fösvény tájaitokból kicsikartátok a földi édent, mert nem ellene fordultatok szúrós, harapós eszközökkel, mert szívetekben nincs erőszak – mindenki rendje, mindenki joga ott világol – ó, a gazdagság fölragyog még a jégtáblán is, hol méltányosság honol a szívekben, s ínség csikorog a zsíros fekete földön, ha téboly szánja, becsapás veti, kényszer aratja, mert a külső rend ott ragyog fel, hol rend van legbelül – üdvözlünk benneteket, mi, a* pokol üvöltő lakói. „

Az utazás kiválasztását ez a szöveg summázta. Az 1971-ben írt szöveg ma is él. S hogy milyen építészetet keresünk a városban ? Ismét Weöres Sándor „prózai” válasza erre: „A költészetben csak egy metafizikai elemet ismerek: a nyelvet: ahogy a zenében a hangot, a képzőművészetben csak a színt, vonalat és felületet, vagyis a legfizikaibb, egyúttal a legmetafizikaibb is. Hogy ugyanazokkal a szavakkal melyekkel egy doboz cigarettát kérhetek, vagy egy vigyázatlan utcai járókelőt összeszidhatok; s tán nem is bonyolultabb mondanivalót kifejezve: olyan remekművet lehet létrehozni, melytől az olvasóra delejes sugárzás árad és egész lénye más erőviszonyok szerint rendeződik, ez olyan csoda, mintha egy tündér testet öltene előttünk. Ez a költészet egyetlen igaz metafizikája, nem pedig az, hogy tartalmilag milyen világképet öltöztetünk szavakba.”

Ha e szövegben költészet helyébe az architektúrát tesszük, ugye választ kapunk? Persze afféle analóg módon, de a lényeg, igaz, tömören így igaz. Nemcsak Koppenhágában, nemcsak Tallinban, Rigában, Bécsben, Temesvárott, hanem itthon is. De most 2010ben, a XX. ciklus hallgatói, mesterei lelkében Koppenhágában. Megtaláljuk? Válasz az út után. Arnóth Lajos a Mesteriskola vezetője * Megjegyzés: 2010-ben ez az ifjúság nem a pokol üvöltő lakói.

he overall design of Terminal 3 was inspired by an aircraft wing and consists of two double, curved triangles on either side of a ribbon skylight that runs the length of the building. From the moment they arrive at the airport, this wing reminds passengers of the journey they are about to make. The triangular shape of the terminal also gives a visual indication of how passengers are distributed, with arriving passengers at the root of the wing where it is widest, departing passengers in the middle and train passengers at the tip, above the station platforms.

his is one of the most exclusive designer hotels in the city. From the exterior façade through to the swan and egg chairs gracing the lobby, all designed by famous Danish architect, Arne Jacobsen. It’s a landmark of the Jet Age: it was Copenhagen’s first major skyscraper showing off a breakthrough. Make sure to get room 606 well in advance. This ‘museum room’ is preserved exactly as it was when Arne completed the hotel. The lobby is open for the public, and when you’re there pay special attention to the staircase. The beautiful hightech design, thin steps, steel suspension… ah, what a perfectionism. Jacobsen said: “Well, yes, they call it the punch card, and it’s funny, for that’s actually what it looks like when the windows are open on a hot summer’s day. It’s been called a lot of different things. And many people thought it was a terribly ugly building, and many may still think so. At least, it came in first when they held a competition for the ugliest building in Copenhagen.”

XN won the prestigious competition for the renovation of Tivoli’s concert hall. In a partnering process with contractor NCC and engineers Birch & Kropgboe, 3XN has restored the former glory of the concert hall and has created new buildings in the old garden. Focal point of the project is a new circular three-storey foyer with lounge, bar and outdoor café which gives a view of Tivoli. The foyer is light, transparent and modern, yet it keeps the ‘Tivoli-spirit’. White lacquered, twisted alu strings create a joyful façade that catches and reflects the sun and Tivoli’s many lamps at night. The 700 m2 pavilion is the new main entrance to the concert hall as well.

visual interrelation: From the beginning, the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek was conceived as a visual interrelation between art works and architecture; a place “with a beauty all its own, to which the people of the city would feel themselves irresistibly drawn”, as Carl Jacobsen phrased it. The Dahlerup and the Kampmann buildings: Today, the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek consists of four buildings. The architect Vilhelm Dahlerup created the museum’s first wing, which was inaugurated in 1897. It was to house Carl Jacobsen’s collection of Danish and French sculpture. Dahlerup also drew the museum’s Winter Garden, which opened to the public in 1906, the same year that the architect Hack Kampmann’s building for Carl Jacobsen’s collection of ancient works was inaugurated. The Henning Larsen building: Most recently, the museum was enlarged with a new wing in 1996, created by the architect Henning Larsen for the Collection of French Painting.

t the time the building was completed, both architecture and choice of materias were a startlin innovation. The slender reinforced concrete structure is sided with painted steel panels on the two lower floors, while the three upper floors are sided with a continuous surface of glazed tiles. The facades clearly express the building’s functional organization with the shop on the ground floor, offices on the upper floors and apartment on roof level. The precise proportioning of the facade and the careful detailing make this building an esceptional, refinde infill project. Arne Jacobsen was also responsible for the interior design and furnishing in the shop. These elements, which contributed to the building’s homogenity no longer exist.

erholdt’s University Library is built to a Neo-Gothic design. Its strong use of red brick heralded a new, destinctive trend in Danish architecture[2] which was to characterize many of the large cultural and civic buildings of the preceding decades. Herholdt’s design is inspired by western European, particularly northern Italian, cathedral architecture. The columns with their hive-like terminations as well as other features are inspired by the Church of San Fermo in Verona.[2] The building’s gable towards Frue Plads is intended as a continuation of the seven triangular gables of the University which faces the square. The central hall and corridor were decorated by Georg Hilker, one of the premier Danish decorative painters of the time. The building was the first in Denmark to have a structural system of cast iron. This was a requirement to prevent future fires and Herholdt was inspired by the Crystal Palace at the Great Exhibition of 1851 in London which he had visited during a stay in England. Another source of inspiration was the Bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève in Paris which had been built 1843 to 1859 with a similar underlying structure.

he Rundetårn (English: Round Tower) is a 17th-century tower located in central Copenhagen, Denmark. One of the many architectural projects of Christian IV, it was built as an astronomical observatory. It is most noted for its 7.5-turn helical corridor leading to the top, and for the expansive views it affords over Copenhagen. Instead of stairs, a 7.5turn spiral ramp forms the only access way to the towertop observatory as well as the Library Hall and the Bell-Ringer’s Loft, both located above the church. The ramp turns 7.5 times around the hollow masonry core of the tower before reaching the observation deck and observatory at the top, on the way also affording access to the Library Hall as well as the Ringer’s Loft. This design was chosen to allow a horse and carriage to reach the library, moving books in and out of the library as well as transporting heavy and sensitive instruments to the observatory.

ørsen (The Stock Exchange) is a very impressive building situated in central Copenhagen and was built by King Christian IV during 1618 - 1624 as a symbol of Copenhagen as a trade centre and metropolis. The building was designed in the style of the Dutch renaissance architecture and is famous for its “dragonspire”. The spire from 1625 is shaped as the tails of four dragons twined together and was said to guard the building against fire and enemies. Above the spire are three crowns; symbolizing the then united kingdoms of Denmark, Sweden and Norway. Originally Børsen was used for the exchange of wares and this is why it is nominated as one of the first exchanges in Europe. It housed the Danish stock-market until 1974, but is today owned by the Chamber of Commerce, which is an independent private business association for trade and services - and the building is not a museum.

etween two worlds The Metro creates a whole new level of traffic in the city that ensures rapid and cheap travel between the stations of this newly constructed underworld. From street level passengers have easy access to the stations’ platforms and the skylight prisms create a spacious coherence between the two worlds below and above ground. The specially designed skylight prisms constitute a sculptural element in the outdoor squares and let the daylight into the 20-metre deep stations below. The use of daylight as an architectural element assists orientation for passengers and provides a sense of security. Furthermore, it provides the functional and timeless design an intriguing experience that varies according to the movement of the sun and clouds. The project includes stations, design of furniture and supervision of the construction. The project comprises 16 stations and squares in urban areas. Additional to this are the East Amager Railway and the Frederiksberg Railway with 9 stations and squares. In addition to planning and design, KHR arkitekter has conducted preliminary designs for the first phase of the turnkey contract, and carried out the detailed design for the remaining phases.

ocated on Kvæsthusbroen Landing Stage in the inner harbour of Copenhagen the Royal Theatre will get a new playhouse, at the end of Sankt Annæ Plads. The Royal Theatre already has a theatre on the water, the Opera house on Kgs. Nytorv, at the other side of the harbour. Only the ballet will remain in the old building. The two prominent positions along the water will turn them into two cultural focus points in the city. The exterior of the new playhouse is dominated by a continuous glass-encased top story with offices and facilities for the actors. On top is the ‘black box’ each theatre has. Visitors will arrive along gently sloping ramps, like a promenade, with a panoramic view of the waterfront. A pedestrian and bicycle tunnel under the harbour to link the Playhouse with the Opera is being considered.

ccording to Eigtved’s master plans for Frederikstad and the Amalienborg Palaces, the four palaces surrounding the plaza were conceived of as town mansions for the families of chosen nobility. They were identical from the outside, but different on the inside. The building site for each palace was donated free of charge to the chosen aristocrat to build on, and they were further exempted from taxes and duties. The only conditions were that the palaces should comply exactly to the Frederikstad architectural specifications, and that they should be built within a specified time framework. Building of the palaces on the western side of the square started in 1750. When Eigtved died in 1754 the two western palaces had been completed. The work on the other palaces was continued by Eigtved’s colleague and rival, Lauritz de Thurah strictly according to Eigtved’s plans. The palaces were completed in 1760.

redgade leads northwards from the upper end of Nyhavn to the Marble Church, the building of which began in 1749 but was not completed until 1894. It is also known as Frederik’s Church, because it was intended to be the main church in the Frederiksstad district of Copenhagen. Features of the interior include an ivory Crucifix, an oak carving of the Descent from the Cross and Grundtvig’s sevenbranched golden candelabrum. The church has a dome 84m high and the facade is decorated with statues of great figures in ecclesiastical history, including St Ansgar, the Apostle of the North, and the religious reformer Grundtvig.

astellet is one of the best preserved fortifications in Northern Europe.[1] It is constructed in the form of a pentagram with bastions at its corners. Kastellet was continuous with the ring of bastioned ramparts which used to encircle Copenhagen but of which only the ramparts themselves Christianshavn remain today. A number of buildings are located within the grounds of Kastellet, including a church, as well as a windmill. The area houses various military activities but its mainly serves as a public park and a historic site.

he statue of The Little Mermaid (Den lille havfrue in Danish) sits on a rock in the harbour of the capital of Denmark. Based on a tale by Hans Christian Andersen, the small and unimposing statue is a Copenhagen icon and a major tourist attraction. The statue was commissioned in 1909 by Carl Jacobsen, son of the founder of Carlsberg, who had been fascinated by a ballet about the fairytale in Copenhagen’s Royal Theatre and asked the primaballerina, Ellen Price, to model for the statue. The sculptor Edvard Eriksen created the statue, which was unveiled on 23 August 1913. The statue’s head was modelled after Price, but as the ballerina did not agree to model in the nude, the sculptor’s wife Eline Eriksen was used for the body. The relatively small size of the statue typically surprises tourists visiting Langelinie for the first time. The Little Mermaid statue is only 1.25 metres high and weighs around 175 kg. The Copenhagen City Council decided to move the statue to Shanghai at the Danish Pavilion for the duration of the Expo 2010 (from May to October), the first time it had been moved from its perch since it was installed almost a century earlier.

enmark’s first Design Centre is located just a stone’s throw from the town hall square across from Tivoli gardens and showcases all that is hot in Danish design. There’s always an exhibition on and their shop is guaranteed to tickle your fancy with its wealth of cutting edge design wares. The building is divided into two main elements: a five-storey building facing H.C. Andersen’s Boulevard and a two-storey building facing the courtyard. On the boulevard side the facades fit remarkebly well in the streetscape. The height and rhythm of the front house facade follows the rest of the buildings; however, the design and choice of materials – primarily steel and glass – give the building a special identity in the row of houses. The two lower floors that are open to the public include exhibition areas, café and a conference hall.

he Jewish concept Mitzvah, “a good deed”, is of central significance to Daniel Libeskind’s architecture for the museum. The Hebrew word Mitzvah is literally stamped in the building: the letters in gigantic sizes form the walking area of the museum, in which the visitors move. Danish Jews were saved through the effort of their compatriots and neighbors during the tragic years of the war. In this way the Danish Jewish Museum differs from other European Jewish Museums, the history is manifested in the form, structure and light. The museum is located in the Royal Boat House built by King Christian IV, transformed into the Royal Library, and now shared with the Jewish Museum. The entrance lies in the courtyard, and is marked with ‘conversation spaces’, stones that appear to be lying around, random placed. The interior has a very Libeskind-like structure, in this case a theatre like décor for all material the museum collects, which can document significant aspects of Jewish life in Denmark.

he Black Diamond is a modern building on the waterfront in Copenhagen for the use of the Royal Library and a wide variety of cultural facilities. The shape suggests a diamond mirroring itself in the waters of the canal. The Diamond seems to float on a ribbon of glass, which offers views into the foyer from the exterior and panoramic views of the entire waterfront from within. The building has seven stories plus a basement and is made of glass and steel, clad in Absolute Black granite. In contrast with the exterior the Atrium is designed as an organic room in motion that cuts into the building; wave-like balconies flank the 24-meter-high interior, skylights provide comfortable, indirect daylight. From the Atrium, there is direct access to the bookshop, cafe/ restaurant, the Queens Hall and the exhibition galleries. The main entrance to the library overlooks the new square, Søren Kierkegaards Plads, which continues to the new harbor promenade, both laid with dark granite mosaic stones.

he entrance for this bank is a small hole in the huge, monolithic stone wall. You enter through a single-storey internal lobby that changes your direction while you enter the huge volume of the main 20m-high hall. Ahead of you is a staircase that hangs from metal bars, which is a counterpoint to the entrance lobby which also hangs. Light enters the austere space from recesses in the main wall. The focus is centered on the arrangement of Jacobsen’s Egg Chairs. Through to the main banking area and the atmosphere changes completely. Here, one will find light, modern wood panelling and light wells with plants next to the workers’ desks.

ordea Headquarters in Denmark makes part of a Henning Larsen Architects masterplan for the Christiansbro area. Won in 1995, the masterplan concerns the redevelopment of a former shipyard site. The complex consists of four long buildings facing the harbour and a u-shaped building bordering Strandgade to the east. The building complex is entered from Strandgade through an impressive gateway to an interior courtyard. It leads into a five-storey lobby containing the reception area and space for various events. The buildings are linked by intermediate buildings and gangways. Some of the latter also connect the new headquarters to the existing offices. The complex contains 20 per cent individual offices and 80 per cent open-plan offices. The canteen runs over three storeys with a triplehigh room facing the harbour.

anish Architecture Centre was established in 1985 and since then it has been housed in this old renovated warehouse in Christianshavn. Danish Architecture Centre disseminates knowledge and visions about the architecture and building of the future. Through exhibitions, professional projects, seminars and conferences and various cultural events, we are not only an eye-opener to what architecture is, but we also participate in pushing the limits for what architecture can do. On a daily basis, approximately 40 employees work in DAC within four different teams: national and international projects, exhibitions, Copenhagen, and communications. Additionally, DAC has its own bookshop, café and conference centre.

ocated in the old Torpedo (boat) Hall the 67 apartments designed by Tegnestuen Vandkunsten are the first loft-style residences made available in Copenhagen. The steel and concrete Torpedo Hall, constructed in 1954, served as a maintenance hall for torpedo boats. In the conversion the architects left the structural elements intact to emphasize the unique architecture of the 155 meter long building. Trusses and columns stand untouched by the new building. The old roof was removed, leaving the original trusses exposed, to admit daylight into the interior street on the second floor above the garage. Footbridges running across and along the street contribute to the dynamic sequence of movement. All apartments can be accessed from the interior street from which a large wooden staircase leads to the lower floors along the canal, the former boat basin, that was kept as an extension to the street. Owners of small boats can dock on the canal.

ith its canals and maritime atmosphere Holmen, the former Royal Naval Dockyards, is an area of great natural beauty and significant architectural value. The abandoned 17th century red brick warehouses, barracks and foundries now house the Royal Academy schools specializing in drama, film, design, architecture, and music as well as theaters, galleries, restaurants, offices and shops. With the addition of the new Opera House Holmen is sure to become a new cultural center in Copenhagen.

ARCHITECTURE OF EXCEPTIONAL CHARACTER AND QUALITY HR arkitekter has a reputation for creating architecture of exceptional character and quality. National and international exhibitions and publications have cemented our position as an architectural firm, which explores the boundaries of architecture with curiosity and do not shy away from experimenting with new methods and materials. Our architecture has a clear Nordic standpoint in the sense that we strive for a simple and clear mode of expression where the individual, the place and the function is in focus. For KHR arkitekter a house is not just a house. Architecture is more than mere form, function and colour. Great architecture changes the way we look at the world and creates new modes of living and working. It is our goal to constantly improve ourselves, use new methods and experiment, so we can develop buildings that point into the future.

anish shipping magnate Mærsk McKinney Møller donated in 2004 personally the new Opera House, used by the Royal Theater, to the Danish state. The house is built at Holmen opposite Amalienborg Palace. At the front it is visually integrated in the harbor space. A 35 meter wide Arrival Plaza, covered by the 32 meter long cantilevered roof, welcomes the audience approaching by boat or from the wide harbor promenade. New 17 meter wide canals have been dug on both sides of the building to create an island for the Opera itself. The back of the building, designed as a lower building block, relates to the new apartment buildings in the area. The main entrance to the Opera House Foyer will be through revolving doors. The Main Stage, heart of the building, is concealed behind a golden maple shell, which appears to float in the Foyer. Balconies and walkways (aswell as the restaurant and terrace on the top) offer a sensational view of the harbour and the city.

hristiania, also known as Freetown Christiania (Danish: Fristaden Christiania) is a self-proclaimed autonomous neighbourhood of about 850 residents, covering 34 hectares (85 acres) in the borough of Christianshavn in the Danish capitalCopenhagen. From an official point of view, Christiania is regarded as a large commune, but its relation to the authorities has a unique status in being regulated by a special law, the Christiania Law of 1989 which transfers parts of the supervision of the area from the municipality of Copenhagen to the state.

f you walk across Langebro on a sunny Saturday afternoon in summer, you’ll see a very peculiar sight when looking down at the old industrial area on Islands Brygge. Hundreds of people dressed in swimwear are walking, standing, sunbathing and smiling about as if they were on a sandy beach far from the metropolis. In 2002 the Harbour Bath was opened as part of the Havneparken. In no time it developed into a unique oasis right in the middle of Copenhagen. People instantly loved it. City harbours are usually not associated with fresh swimming water. Old swimming baths at Langebro closed down in 1953 because of poor water quality. Bathing is now without health risks thanks to the improved water quality. With 42 km of wharf in the harbour the city’s revitalisation “Blue Plan” is working on making room for houseboats, promenades, water sports, recreation areas and playgrounds in the entire harbour space. Copenhageners now pack towels and swimwear in their briefcases. They might fancy a swim.

ykredit’s head office is one of the largest corporate buildings in Copenhagen and occupies an unparalleled location on the city’s central waterfront. Across nine of its ten storeys, the complex is divided into two svelte office wings, separated by a spacious atrium. The structure is one large cubic volume of glass, steel and granite and stands as a gateway between water and city. The entrance level extends across the entire complex and incorporates the reception, art installations, lecture hall and a broad main staircase that leads up to the atrium, the building’s heart. With its suspended meeting boxes and glazed lifts as well as transverse walkways and balcony floors, the space offers an aesthetically stimulating and inspirational working environment. The building’s generically urban design relates to the promenade and neighbouring buildings and mediates the transition between city and harbour

n the summer of 2006 Copenhagen had its first new bridge across the harbour for 50 years. The bridge is reserved for cyclists and pedestrians only, giving them a much needed short cut between Vesterbro and Islands Brygge. The bridge is five and a half metres wide and characterized by architectural simplicity. A steel structure is stretched in a gentle arc between the two harbour piers, possibly reminiscent of a spinal column, and the bridge is able to open for passing ships by having one of the spans swing to one side. At night-time the light fittings in the bridge railings form a luminous ribbon right across the harbour.

‘U

nusual yet obvious’ is the best way to describe MVRDV’s conversion of two grain silos on the harbour front of Copenhagen into high-end housing for the fortunate few. The brief suggested filling up the circular silo spaces with apartment floors. MVRDV chose to go the other way about the task and hang the apartments on the outside of the silo walls as a second skin of glass, creating very light and almost outdoor living spaces. The silo interiors remain as an industrial version of the atrium, roofed with translucent plastic. A prime motivation for this inside-out solution was the relative fragility of the old silo walls. MVRDV regarded the structural weakness of the concrete tubes as a serious limitation because it made it difficult to cut large holes in the walls for windows, without endangering the structural integrity. The 84 apartments now range from around 90 to 200 square metres and the balconies add roughly one third to that as outdoor living space.

oneliness and lack of social relations are major problems for many students. Bikuben student residence provides the framework for the study years and improves the possibilities of a community spirit emerging in a widespread social network. The main shape is very serene and conveys in itself the hostel’s founding principles of community and equality. To provide the greatest possible contact between common and private rooms, while at the same time ensuring the privacy of each residence, the residences and the common rooms are connected in a double spiral surrounding an atrium. Thus, the limitations of the student’s living quarters are widened to incorporate the entire building and the social contact areas, and the freedom of the individual is considered to a maximum degree. Concrete tectonics and social responsibility merge, and the building is embedded in its place and alters its conditions.

he architects used the traditional Tulou constructions of southeast China [village communities with individual dwellings and communal facilities combined in a circular building] as a source of inspiration for the Tietgenkollegiet. The concept is creating space for both communal and private life in the building by assigning equal weight to the individual apartments and the communal facilities. The hall is shaped like a 7-storey rotunda. The building is intersected by five vertical cuts, which divide the building both visual and functional into sections and provide access to the central courtyard space and the hall. The ground floor comprises a café, great hall, laundrette, bicycle parking and study, computer, music and conference rooms. The student residences are located on the upper floors. All rooms, 360 in total measuring 26-33 m², provide a view of the surroundings. The communal kitchens, recreation rooms, terraces and utility rooms are located facing towards the courtyard.

he IT University is arranged around a large central atrium. In the atrium space a number of group and meeting rooms, designed as corbelled boxes, are placed in a dynamic composition – like extracted drawers of various sizes. By changing back projections on the meeting boxes, a digital art installation by the American artist John Maeda creates a dynamic and interactive visual composition in the atrium.The ground floor comprises the common facilities; lecture halls, students’ café, canteen and library. All research and teaching areas are located on the upper floors. Teaching facilities in open study areas surrounding the atrium and research departments in the calmer zones at both ends of the building. The building stands elevated above terrain. A metal clad frame folds around the entire volume in one singular dynamic movement. The glass facades inside the frame are divided into horizontal ribbons of glass of varying colour and character – powerful green-coloured glass, translucent glass and clear glass.

he Danish Broadcasting Company (DR) has collected all its activities in Copenhagen in a single complex. The media center is divided into four segments designed by different architects and built in stages. The unified plan was inspired by the Middle Eastern Kasbah. A key element is an indoor street that links the four segments. Segments 1 to 3 house the studios, offices, depots and administration, and segment 4 is the concert hall designed by French architect Jean Nouvel which will seat 1,800. It will seem simple from the outside: a monumental cobaltblue cube 45 meters tall. Inside, the building will reveal a complex, organic structure outside: a monumental cobalt-blue cube 45 meters tall. Inside, the building will reveal a complex, organic structure whose asymmetry gives outstanding acoustics. The blue outer shell will serve as a screen in the evening. Live pictures, works, of art, and text can be enlarged and projected and create a living wall outside the concert hall.

The program however is 2/3 parking and 1/3 living. The two functions are merged into a symbiotic relationship. The housing is orientated to the sunlight, fresh air and view. The parking has become the foundation of the housing. Together they are combined into a artificial hillside, complete with sunfacing roof gardens and parking on the 10th floor. The completion is planned in May 2008.

he VM Houses, shaped like a V and an M when seen from above, is the first residential project to be built in Ørestad; a new quarter of Copenhagen. The characters represent PLOT’s vision of how to create the most light possible and a view for the most residents possible. The total project houses 41 shared-ownership flats and 180 owneroccupied apartments. To leave room for life around the buildings they lifted the V House on five meter high columns, opening the courtyard to the park area on the south side, and broke down the facades with niches and angles, creating a series of informal meeting places. Each apartment in the V Building has a tapering, triangular balcony with a panoramic south-facing view and rooms with up to five metres’ ceiling height. Instead of the usual high-rise apartments the units are designed as loft spaces, each different both in width and height, letting residents design their own individual apartments.

his is the first school in Denmark with an architectural design that corresponds to the new visions on content, subject matter, organization, and learning systems that are part of the new Danish reforms for high schools that came into effect on August 1, 2005. Flexibility and openness are key words for the new building, which has open rooms, subject zones, niches for creativity and concentration, and free access everywhere to the virtual space. Traditional spaces such as classrooms and lounges no longer exist in the high school of the future. Instead, the building is divided into four “study zones.” Each has its own story, designed like a boomerang and staggered like a shutter on a camera. The stories are linked by a wide, spiral staircase that winds up toward the roof terrace. The staircase is the main axis in the tall foyer – the X-zone – that creates physical and visual links between the different study zones and supports an interdisciplinary approach.

The total floor area is about 22,000 m², including about 6,000 m² basement, about 11,000 m² office and a laboratory building with two-storey underground car park and service basement. The building is divided into two parts. A three-storey laboratory section, grouped around two green courtyards, and an administration section in the 20-storey high tower with an exquisite view of Copenhagen and Sweden. The two shapes meet in surrounding an open entrance level and a large canteen that faces the nearby metro station. The facades are constructed of glass and horizontal black enamelled metal lamellas. It is a wonderful addition to the Copenhagen skyline, the highest building erected in Denmark using steel as its bearing construction.

he new Kastrup Sbad Seawater Lido is a leisure amenity out of the ordinary. Like a conch, the Lido emerges from the water to occupy a central position along the beach looking over the Øresund Sound. Just as we have seen further to the north at Amager Strand Beach, Kastrup Strand Beach is undergoing major transformation and reorganization. The general facility consists of the main building on the water, a new bathing beach and a new service building onshore that includes toilet facilities. In addition to this, green areas for outdoor activities will be created on land in the form of a gigantic amph itheatre.

apping waves, beach volley and life on the esplanade? Just minutes from the centre of Copenhagen by Metro. With the new Amager Strand Beach having been inaugurated, this is now a reality. Amager Strand Beach consists of the beach along the coastal road, Amager Strandvej, a lagoon, an island and the two parks 10-øren and 5-øren (the Danish 10 Øre and 5 Øre coins). The island is 2 km long and the lagoon is 400 metres at its widest point. Beach stations have been sited in the middle of the island; these are concrete buildings with toilets, refreshment kiosks and so on. These beach stations also act as lookout and vantage points, providing a fantastic view of the large vessels plying the Øresund Sound and Øresund Bridge or the planes preparing to land in Kastrup. The new island has been bisected, so that in the north you encounter a landscape of sand dunes, only to find more park-like grounds in the south.

he site was polluted with heavy metals (and therefore stable). To save budget the architects covered the entire site with a wooden deck (1600m2), so wasn’t necessary to clean the site first. The building is shared by two clients, a sail club and a youth house. The youth house needed outdoor space for the kids to play; the sail club needed most of the site to park their boats. The design is the literal results of negotiations between the two contradictory demands. Where the deck rises it allows for boat storage and, at the same time, becomes an exciting play area for the kids. The common room for daily activities is located in the front house, the workshop and storage is in the back corner building. In contrast to the wooden exterior decks the floor in the community space is white concrete and a standard grey concrete in the workshop and storage area. This is meant to reflect the dominance of the outdoor activities; the wooden deck is the actual “room” of the Maritime Youth House.

rags Boulevard in Amager is a truly unique Copenhagen street. In what is not quite a straight line, it runs from the main artery of Amagerbrogade through residential quarters and industrial estates, only to end with a sea view of the Øresund Sound. At the time of the neighbourhood facelift scheme around Holmbladsgade, there was an intense desire on the part of the residents to take greater advantage of the boulevard’s peculiarly elongated urban space. And for Kristine Jensen, the landscape architect behind the new park and activity area, it was important not to let it become a traditional recreational area, but a green area with a high utility value for people of all ages. A real pleasure ground.

he boldness of this project lies in the simple idea of making a new kind of crossover building between the traditional typology of the indoor sports arena and the outdoor sports field. The formal idea of connecting the new building to four housing blocks seems to suggest that the building is at once a continuation of the built fabric of the neighbourhood -and as such, an interior space- but also an outdoor public space. The polycarbonate skin is a very unusual feature in Denmark. Looking at the result, the effort appears to have been well worthwhile since it is the translucent skin that makes this sports facility so unique. Normally, natural light is a rare visitor in indoor sports facilities where artificial lighting is most often preferred in order to secure an even distribution of light. In this project, the skin allows for an even distribution of natural light that gives a much warmer feel to this space. This is further enhanced by the use of wood as part of the visible structure.

he Neighbourhood Centre has given residents of the Holmbladsgade quarter in Jemtelandsgade a unique meeting place. The Neighbourhood Centre has been fitted out in the former factory building from 1880, and the conversion is part of the overall neighbourhood facelift in the area around Holmbladsgade. A broad segment of the Centre’s future users were consulted in connection with the conversion, and apart from a library, a youth club, an athletics association and an assembly hall, the building plays host to a number of the Holmbladsgade quarter’s clubs, associations and voluntary networks. The Neighbourhood Centre’s manager, Steen Christensen, is well pleased with the new building: ”The Neighbourhood Centre has developed into a very smooth-functioning base for grass-roots democracy and neighbourhood networking, while at the same time succeeding as a culture centre. Here there is room for the passionate movers and shakers to meet and work up new projects, and conferences and debating events can be held here too. At the same time, there is room for workshops, art exhibitions, concerts and children’s theatre,” says Steen Christensen.

he guiding concept of the Wedge (CBS Kilen) is a dynamic groundfloor space that opens up on the activities and the landscape of the surrounding squares and buildings, including the newly renovated Frederiksberg Main Library, Frederiksberg High School, and Frederiksberg Center shopping mall. The Wedge rests on two grass-covered hills and its glass façade provides a smooth transition between the open air, the landscape, and the building?s interior. The top four stories are shielded by movable, vertical shutters in a combination of wood, colored glass, and metal, giving the building’s façade great variety. An organically shaped atrium rises five stories inside the building. Large circular windows provide light from above, both diffuse and direct sunlight, and create exciting light and shadow effects in the atrium. Classrooms and offices are placed along the outer walls, and corridors take the form of indoor balconies with views of the atrium.

uildings made with sandwich panels have a reputation for being dull boxes. In Hedorf Residence Hall at Frederiksberg KHR arkitekter shows that buildings cast in concrete can be both creative and inspiring. Expressive and dynamic facade. Inspired by the bay windows at traditional Frederiksberg apartments KHR has designed a geometrically shaped bay window, which creates an expressive and dynamic façade. The bay windows are placed above the floor to give more spacious and dynamic apartments. Kaleidoscopic effect: A small triangular window is placed in top corner of the bay window with the broad concrete wall behind. The result is a slim expression in the building because of the reflection from the window in the window ledge. The windows also give a kaleidoscopic effect where the expression of the building changes according to where you stand. From one side the façade opens up with windows, from the other side the closed bay windows with their organic movement characterize the facade. Thanks to the bay windows there is a play of colors between light and shadow all day independent of the light. And the wave motion on the façade makes the hard material appear soft and organic. Hedorf Residence Hall is situated close to Flintholm Station, CBS and Niels Brock. The residence hall has 4 floors with a total of 52 one bed apartments. Each floor has a common kitchen where the students can meet, cook and socialise.

he station appears as three stations gathered under one large glass roof that serves as an image and point of orientation for the station. One of the largest stations in Denmark, Flintholm Station is a combined station for the Metro, the Danish Railway and DSB S-trains. KHR arkitekter formed a joint venture with the Danish State Railway Architects to design the station, station surrounds, and bridges. Flintholm Station is designed for a capacity of 60,000 passengers and is one of the largest stations in Denmark. The new combined station is in a very high quality with safe and visible passages. The flow is secured by limiting the distance between the different systems of bus, train and metro as much as possible. Three in one, the principal idea behind the design was to merge the three stations in one so that passengers would only have to refer one station. A very large glass roof covers all 3 stations and serves as image and landmark for the station. Underneath the glass roof different facilities are located depending on each system. The design was carried out to allow all three transportation clients to express their own individual identity and at the same time to ensure that the station appears as a harmonious entity. The station is situated in a park and the existing bridges in the area have been renovated to ensure homogenous expression.

he interplay between the two building masses, one with the ceremonial spaces and the other with offices, is a simple motif that won the 1939 town hall competition. The structure is a reinforced concrete frame. The facades are sided with Porsgrund marble and roofing is copper. The few architectural effects employed here are refined to the utmost in the masterly facade composition, in details like the small carillon on the north wall, and in the interiors where the architects designed all the details and furnishings, a quality that makes this the most pristine of Denmark’s functionalistic town halls. An annex toward east was added in 1967 by the same architects. Bibliography: Lind-Lund: Copenhagen Architecture Guide, Arkitektens Forlag 2001

he ground floor of the building and small garden fill the entire site. Originally the garden was a for cultivating medicinal herbs. The two upper floors float as a separate box over the two level, and the space between admits a clerestory light into the pharmacy’s airy sales area. The emphasized skeletal structure and the filling out of the upper facades with glass and enamelled steel panels were inspired by the American architectural trends of the time, such as the works of Mies van der Rohe and Richard Neutra. One senses a reflective minimalism, which due to the classical proportions and human scale, resulted in a sensitive architectural presentation. A number of alterations have been made in the exterior detailing and the pharmacy interior. Bibliography: Skala 1994, 70

he design was the result of a competition in 1938, which was won with a proposal for a concentrated office building with five stories and a copper covered penthouse. The structure is reinforced concrete and the facade siding is Greenland marble. The concave entrance facade has a supple grip on the triangular arrival plaza, and the uniform facade pattern is broken by the asymmetrical entrance and the twostory windows in the town council hall. The building harmonizes with the special local situation and is an example of the functionalistic town halls that were build in that period and caused a fierce debate for and against traditional monumentality.

he church exhibits a dramatic tension between in and out. The exterior has an industrial, prefabricated character that does not say “church”, but there are still discreet, refined facade details. The interior is magnificent, not because of expensive materials but due to a flowing interplay of soft and sharp forms and a profusion of finely varied daylight. The outer roof construction’s free and moving span between the narrow, stepped down side buildings is simple and structural, while the undulating concrete ceiling in the church offers a strong and poetic cloud metaphor, which was the architect’s greatest inspiration. Just as the ceiling is spatially diffuse, the walls in the church are dissolved. The space runs partially out into the side buildings from where a strong, reflected daylight enters, and the altar wall consists only of a fine net of thin, white ceramic tiles. While both formal and organic, the church is a very personal work without any clear architectural paradigm. It has contributed new dimensions to Danish church building, which have no religious reference, but are universal. Bibliography: Arkitektur DK 1983, 82

he Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde is the Danish museum for ships, seafaring and boatbuilding culture in ancient and medieval times. The Viking Ship Hall, the oldest part of the museum, was opened in 1969. It was designed as a large showcase to display the five Viking ships found at Skuldelev. The hall also houses special temporary exhibitions and a cinema, where a film about the excavation of the ships is shown. An extension to the museum, Museum Island, was opened in 1997. The museum boatyard, where visitors can watch shipwrights at work, is located on the island. The Activity Centre, where the School Service is housed is also found here. The large collection of traditional Nordic wooden boats is berthed at the harbour on Museum Island. Here you will also find the five reconstructions of the Skuldelev Ships. Many of the vessels were built at the museum boatyard, where they are also continuously maintained. Together with other museums, the Viking Ship Museum carries out investigations before civil engineering projects are commenced or when the forces of nature uncover items of historical interest on the sea floor. Archaeological finds from throughout Denmark are documented at the Archaeological Workshop on Museum Island using digital technology, and information on maritime archaeological finds throughout Denmark are collected and stored in the museum archives.

oskilde Cathedral (Danish: Roskilde Domkirke), in the city of Roskilde on the Island of Zealand (Sjælland) in eastern Denmark, was the first Gothic cathedral to be built of brick and its construction encouraged the spread of this Brick Gothic style throughout Northern Europe. It was built during the 12th and 13th centuries, and incorporates both Gothic and Romanesque architectural features in its design. It was the only cathedral in Zealand until the 20th century. The cathedral’s twin spires dominate the skyline of the town. Roskilde Cathedral has been the main burial site for Danish monarchs since the 15th century. As such, it has been significantly extended and altered over time as individual rulers have added multiple burial chapels. Following the Reformation in 1536, the Bishop’s residence was moved to Copenhagen, and he from then on held the title Bishop of Zealand. Royal coronations normally took place in Copenhagen’s Church of Our Lady or the chapel of Frederiksborg Palace. It is a major tourist attraction, bringing in over 125,000 visitors annually. Since 1995 the cathedral has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

he university library constitutes the second phase of the extension plan for the Roskilde University campus. The library has a significant location. It is placed at the main entrance of the university and is accessed from a new square. The library is characterized by transparency and openness, and it forms one side of a new garden. The glass facades allow an excellent view of the garden, where a lake surrounds the library building. The light and reflections of the trees in the lake add special character to the building, changing in accordance with the seasons. The library consists of a long, three-storey brick building and a distinctive glass building, in which a large part of the lending department is placed in an 8 meters high room of 2,300 m2. The room is connected with two floors of the long building, and the top floor is designed as a balcony in the open volume. The intention was to design the largest volume possible for the lending departments to ensure a clear view and to give the daily visitor and the staff an experience of spatiality. The library contains open library areas, offices for the administrative staff, three classrooms, study hall and an exhibition area. The module of the large lending area is 9 meters, which ensures a high degree of flexibility for the arrangement of the bookshelves.

The Trekroner Residential Housing Project is part of a large new residential development outside the City of Roskilde immediately adjacent to Roskilde University. In contrast to the large open spaces of the Trekroner development, the two new buildings move individually to create intimate, wind protected, green spaces between them. Parking for the 38 housing units is placed on the northernmost part of the site, leaving the rest of the area for pedestrians and recreational use. The building’s main construction is of prefab concrete clad in white composite panels, and stainless steel rods on the façade support climbing white clematis vines. Each housing unit can be individually accessed from the ground and most are staggered diagonally over an adjacent unit to ensure flexibility in use and to provide a larger and more varied spatiality than a traditional duplex. Units on ground level have a small private garden abutting the common green space, while duplex units have large balconies also facing this space. The ceiling height of each ground level unit is different due to the site’s changing topography, and each unit’s living space is directly connected to its secondary rooms through a double-high section. 38 apartments: duplex 24 + single story 14 | floorage: 4500 m2

redensborg is a small town in north Zealand with just over 8000 inhabitants. The success of Jorn Utzon’s Kingo Housing development in Helsingor led to the project for the Dansk Samvirke, a support organization for Danish citizens who worked for long periods abroad in business or the foreign service. They wanted a development for retirees who had returned to Denmark, so that they could live in a community and share their experiences. Utzon accepted the task of conceiving the program and designing the houses, even though no site had been found, and without fee if the project was not built. He helped find the site in Fredensborg, and developed a plan that allowed each house to have a view of and direct access to a green slope. Since there was no comparable society to this anywhere, Utzon had to invent the details of the project and make them conform to his idea for the individual houses. One of the things the committee wanted was a centre where the residents could meet, along with a dining room and kitchen, a communal lounge, and party area. Some office space was needed as well as several guest rooms. Thus, the project effectively became a small hotel. Average age of habitants is between 75 to 80 years old. There are currently around 400 people on the waiting list for a house at Jorn Utzon’s Fredensborg Housing. Inhabitants must dine in the communal dining hall at least 12 times per month, and are expected to participate in the various social events. The Fredensborg Housing development was designed with 47 courtyard and 30 terraced houses.

he castle has for centuries been one of the most important renaissance castles in Northern Europe and was added to UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites list on November 30, 2000. The castle’s story dates back to a fortress, Krogen, built in the 1420s by theDanish King, Eric of Pomerania. Kronborg acquired its current name in 1585 when it was rebuilt by Frederik ll into a magnificent Renaissance castle, unique in its appearance and size throughout Europe. In1629, a moment’s carelessness by two workmen caused much of the castle to go up in flames. Only the Chapel was spared by the strength of its arches. Christian IV put great efforts into restoring the castle and by 1639 the exterior was once again magnificent, but the interior never fully regained its former glory. The Swedish conquest of Kronborg in 1658 by Carl Gustaf Wrangel demonstrated that the castle was far from impregnable. Afterwards, the defences were strengthened significantly. From 1688-90, an advanced line of defence was added called the Crownwork. Shortly afterwards, a new series of ramparts were built around it. After their completion, Kronborg was considered the strongest fortress in Europe. From 1739 until the 1900s, Kronborg was used as a prison. The inmates were guarded by the soldiers billeted in the castle. The convicts had been sentenced to work on the castle’s fortifications. The convicts were divided into two categories: those with minor sentences were categorised as “honest” and were allowed to work outside the castle walls; those serving sentences for violence, murder, arson or the like were categorised as “dishonest” and had to serve the full sentence doing hard physical labour inside the castle ramparts. Otherwise, they served their time under the same conditions: they all had to wear chains and spend nights in cold and damp dungeons. From January 15th16th15th17th18th20th 17, 1772 to April 30, 1772, Kronborg was the place of imprisonment of Queen Caroline Mathilde. As Kronborg’s importance as a royal castle Helsingør diminished, the armed forces came to play a greater role. From 1785 to Kronborg 1 B 1922, the castle was completely under military administration. During 56°2’20.40”É / 12° 37’18.12”K this period, a number of renovations were completed. bus

he fundamental architectural idea of the Louisiana Museum is the co-conception of the architecture with art and nature. In 1958, architects Jørgen Bo and Wilhelm Wohlert were commissioned to design the museum taking as their point of departure the old patrician villa. Over the years they have been responsible for the ongoing expansion of the museum. From 1991 onwards they were joined by architect Claus Wohlert. The park serves as an ideal setting for displaying the museum’s collection of modern sculptures. Similarly the prominent museum buildings, constructed between 1958 and 1998, offer a fascinating background for the permanent collection of 20th century art. It houses an exquisite collection by international artists such as Arp, Francis Bacon, Calder, Dubuffet, Max Ernst, Sam Francis, Giacometti, Henry Moore, Picasso, Rauschenberg and Warhol. Expansions and modernization of the Museum 1958-2006 In 1966 and 1971 the museum was gradually extended with the West Wing. Then in 1976 this was followed by the Concert Hall. In 1982 the South Wing was built, and for many years it housed the museum’s own collection. With the construction of the East Wing, which was completed in 1992, the buildings of the museum have been linked in a kind of circle. With the East Wing Louisiana is now fully fledged as a museum of modern art, since the extension enables us to exhibit drawings and prints that cannot be exposed to daylight. Because of the lighting conditions the East Wing is also often used for exhibitions of photographs, video and light art. The East Wing ends in the Large Hall, which lies as a multi-purpose room beneath the Calder Terrace outside the Museum Café. 1994-1998: Children’s House, Lake Garden, Museum Shop. 20032006: Modernization

reen Lighthouse, Denmark’s first CO2 neutral public building, demonstrates that sustainable design is not a question of stuffing the building with brazen, expensive high-tech gadgets, but that it starts with good old fashioned common sense. In fact, 75% of the reduction of the energy consumption is the direct consequence of architectural design. To achieve carbon neutrality, many green design features were incorporated to reduce energy use and provide a holistic and healthy indoor environment for students and faculty. The building itself was oriented to maximize its solar resources, while windows and doors are recessed and covered with automatic solar shades to minimise direct solar heat gain inside the building. Plentiful daylight and natural ventilation are provided by means of the carefully placed VELUX skylights, Velfac windows and the generous atrium. Finally, sensibly integrated state-of-the-art technology has been applied: heat recovery systems, photovoltaic panels, solar heating, LED lighting, phase change materials, geothermal heat are just some of the technologies that are seamlessly integrated into the building. The building is going to serve as a showcase for sustainable building at the UN’s Climate Conference here in Copenhagen in December later this year. Minister for Science, Technology and Innovation, Helge Sander states; “Everyone who has had a share in the Green Lighthouse project has every reason to be proud. It is a stylish, exemplary, climate-friendly construction, which will help focus the attention on Danish know-how during the forthcoming climate summit. At the same time, the building can serve as inspiration to other universities and builders, while also contributing to the construction industry’s knowledge base of sustainable building solutions”.

he neighborhood of Skanderborggade/Krausesvej is characterized by a mix of buildings made up of dense urban blocks from the turn of the 19th century, interrupted by a scattering of villas, and by a large gap in the structure caused in part by urban renewal.The Skanderborggade/Krausevej block consists of dense 5½ storey buildings encompassing a courtyard, which in this case is particularly narrow. As a consequence of this the courtyard receives little or almost no sunlight. The client wanted a three unit daycare institution/nursery school, holding the potential for conversion into kindergarten units, composed of three rooms for three respective daycare/nursery groups, each with an accompanying changing room, a common room, cloakroom, kitchen, administration and secondary rooms. There was a call for outdoor areas comparable to that of the building area.

or many years, the site held a factory that made aluminum from cryolite sailed in from Greenland. Now the area has changed its name to Charlottehaven, and the factory has been replaced by a modern residential complex with 178 apartments with large glassenclosed balconies, penthouse apartments, and roof terraces. A health club, swimming pool, café, and municipal kindergarten are located in a service building in the middle of the large courtyard. Following an American and British concept, 44 furnished serviced apartments in the courtyard are rented out on a monthly basis. Charlottehaven follows the familiar Copenhagen block structure. Its facades are blackish-blue brick with a myriad of shades and provide a good interplay with the classical apartment buildings of the Østerbro quarter. SLA designed the distinctive courtyard, which uses a wealth of different materials and types of vegetation, from a closely clipped lawn to purple moor grass and two-meter-tall elephant grass.

ordlyset (Northern Lights) is the first residential block completed in the new Amerika Plads neighbourhood north of the centre of Copenhagen, at the Port. It is a taut, white-rendered block, where balconies and gates have been ’hewn’ out of the heavy form which they are instrumental in softening. In so doing, Nordlyset is intended to contribute to the impression of a compact neighbourhood, in which the streets are narrow and the buildings solid and weighty, but different. The residential block houses rented and owner-occupied apartments, and the lower floor will accommodate either shops or smallish youth dwellings. Ruth Campau contributed to the glass surfaces throughout the building. The artist’s brushstrokes have been rendered into a striped pattern, for example, in the entranceways and around the lifts. From the outside, the patterns can be clearly made out on some double-glazed plating fitted perpendicularly to the facade and acting as dividing walls between two balconies.

his is a ferry passenger terminal for routes to Oslo, Norway, Gdansk and Poland. It can handle 3 ferries, 2000 passengers and 400 cars, or 130 trucks. The building is a long glass-clad tube, with 2 stories, raised from the ground on heavy pillars in black concrete. The glass elements have a varied transparency and give the indoor a significant lightweight character. The new facility is designed to integrate all passenger-related activities in one long building. At many ferry terminals, passengers have to buy their ticket at a ticket center and then walk down ramps and long corridors to get to the ship. Visiting this facility is kind of a strange happening, when large groups of travelers walk from one way to the other, either leaving or arriving. The waiting areas are simply a broadened part of the corridor. The movement, lining up and waiting happens in the same stretched space. At the exterior they are clearly visible as protruding boxes and have a distinct alu-clad façade.

he 16-story Copper Tower (Kobbertårnet) stands at the northern entrance to Copenhagen Harbor. Over the years, the distinctive building with rounded corners will change appearance. As the salty winds from the Sound meet the façade’s copper, its color gradually changed from its original flaming red to a more subdued dark brown in late 2005. In the course of the next score of years, large parts of the façade will turn the characteristic verdigris familiar from other towers and roofs in Copenhagen. The concept of a copper tower was part of the unified plan for the North Harbor conceived by the Dutch architect Adriaan Geuze, who originally dreamed of a “tower of towers” to rise high above the harbor and consequently expand the copper-covered part of Copenhagen’s skyline.

he Paustian furniture house on the waterfront in Copenhagen was inspired by the typical Danish beech forest with its tall, slim trunks. “We often took a trip to a forest or a beach during the creative part of our work. Mainly because my father sees issues more clearly when he talks them through with us on a walk in some beautiful natural setting,” explains architect Jan Utzon, who collaborated with his father on the project. “A walk in a Danish beech forest is like walking through a peristyle. The underlying idea in the Paustian building became its many columns, sometimes grouped close together, at other times further apart. Sunlight is shed down by skylights in the roof onto the various floors.” The inside is just as exciting; the finest furniture designs by designers Aalto, Eames and Le Corbusier. The Copenhagen Harbor later commissioned the Utzons to design 2 additional buildings: a Sail Club and “Lakajen”, a restaurant and an office building.

axo Bank’s new headquarter in Copenhagen is designed by 3XN. Although the customers primarily encounter the bank in cyberspace, the physical premises of the head office is of great importance to the management of the bank who participate actively and are highly dedicated to the development of the building. The building is of great iconographic significance, and there is a strong conviction that architecture and design affect each staff member’s performance and awareness of the company. The architectural design is based on Saxo’s cutting-edge profile and branding. The lines of the building design define a sharp balance between reliability and dynamic expressivity in dialogue with the local plan. The building is shaped like two blocks with the end walls pointing towards the canal, joined together by facades that are withdrawn from the end walls. The facades are shaped like double curved glass that wave like a piece of textile. The interior of the building is open and transparent with a large sense of community. The open plans centre round a softly shaped atrium with a glass roof. In the atrium, the main stair case winds up to the top. However, the main room and largest attraction of the building is the so-called Trading Floor where share prices are monitored intensely and resemble scenes from American movies about stock exchanges. Furthermore, the building encompasses a large number of rooms for technical support, kitchenettes and recreational areas.

anish law firm Horten wanted their new headquarters to present itself in a contemporary as well as classical and solid way. Our solution was to design a modern office with a new interpretation of the classical stone-clad facade. Inside, the building appears light and open with a flexible structure encouraging informal meetings and knowledge sharing. The dynamic atmosphere is intensified by the complex and innovative exterior expression. A unique façade design was developed in order to set new standards within sustainable solutions. The three dimensional façade in fiberglass and travertine works as a screen against the sun while still providing a view to the water. In this way, the architecture itself is actually the main contributor to the energy savings of the building.

nown as the largest public Evangelical Lutheran church in Scandinavia, Grundtvig’s Church (Grundtvigskirken in Danish) was built as a national monument for N.F.S. Grundtvig (1783-1872), a Danish philosopher and social reformer. Building commenced in 1921, but main architect Peder Vilhelm Jensen-Klint died in 1930. He was succeeded by his son Kaare Klint and later his grandson Esben Klint, who completed the church in 1940. Its design is a combination between a cathedral and the style of old Danish country houses. The yellow brickwork church stands 50 metres high, which makes it a landmark that can be seen from afar.

ildeskovshallen was designed by the architect couple Karen and Ebbe Clemmensen and built in the period 1966-1972. It is different to other indoor swimming pools as it was built from high-quality materials, coupled with the fact that it also boasts works of art built into the construction. For example, there is a gigantic geometric abstract painting in the colours blue, white and red in the outdoor paddling pool. At the time it was built, the swimming pool was considered a very hi-tech building. Kildeskovshallen has therefore been assessed as having architectural value and today it is a listed building.

ocated on the main road following the coast between Copenhagen and Bellevue, this petrol station dates from 1937 and was designed by Arne Jacobsen. The petrol station itself is a concrete box, clad with Meissen ceramic tiles. The service area is what makes this structure stand out: it is covered by an oval concrete shell, supported by a single column. This design was originally intended as a prototype for Texaco. To save the structure from falling apart, it has been subject to extensive restoration, most notably in 2003 by Dissing + Weitling Architects in cooperation with the Gentofte Municipality. The original ceramic tiles and the concrete canopy have been replaced, after meticulous research and cooperation between the heritage and municipal authorities.

he building is considered one of his most important architectural works and examplar of Danish functionalism. The theatre is part of a scheme also including the adjoining Bellevue Beach and residential block and was, at the time, seen as a manifestation of “the dream of the modern lifestyle”. In the early 1930s, Arne Jacobsen won a competition for a masterplan for the Bellevue area im Klampenborg, Gentofte Municipality, shortly after opening his own architectural office in 1930. The Bellevue Teatret was the last stage of this scheme, which also included facilities for the local Bellevue Sea Bath and the Bellavista residential buildings. The theatre opened in 1936 as a mondain summer theatre. It closed a few seasons later, then operating as a cinema until 1980, when it was reopened as a theatre and film centre by Jes Kølpin.

Klippan is a small town on the west side of Sweden. St Peter’s stands just east of the town centre, between a pair of converging roads which lead out towards suburbs. Beyond is a park, and the site initially suggested for the building was nearer the middle of it, further to the east. However Lewerentz chose to anchor his church against the northern road from which it is approached, turning the area to the west – i.e. between it and the road junction, and facing the town – into a garden [6a]. This garden is the principal outdoor room of the complex, celebrating the west and main facade of the church, that with the largest and most ceremonial doors, from which couples emerge together for the first time after marriage. The space boasts the only piece of added sculpture, and also a large brick-lined pool – a still Nordic lake for reflection and reflectiveness, rather than the cooling fountain of the south.

Lewerentz 54 éven keresztül készített különbözö terveket a malmöi keleti temetö kialakítására. A temetö egy széles és hosszú felvonulási úton, a halottak szent útján tárul fel, amely egy központi térböl indul. Az út mentén és a központban három fontosabb épület származik Lewerentztöl: a Szent Brigitta kápolna (1918), a Sankta Gertrud és Sankt Knut kápolnák (1943), végül a virágárus kioszk (1969). A három építmény Lewerentz három tervezöi korszakára jellemzö, amelyek egymás mellé állítva meglehetös különbségeket mutatnak. A Szent Brigitta kápolna a szent út mentén földbe süllyesztett archaikus tömegformálást és síkba redukált klasszikus tagozatokat viselö épület. A kettös ravatali kápolna eltér ettöl. A némileg Björkhagenre és Klippanra emlékeztetö kápolnák falai téglaként épített köfalak.

he tower’s design is based on a sculpture by Calatrava called Twisting Torso, which is a white marble piece based on the form of a twisting human being. The organizers of the European housing exhibition Bo01 to be held in Malmö in 2001 asked Calatrava to design a temporary pavilion for the exhibition. At the same time a high-rise building was proposed for the exhibition site and discussions started with Calatrava about the design of that.

een from the exterior a new extension marks the arrival of the new museum. The extension provides a new entrance and reception space, as well as a cafeteria and a new upper gallery. Its perforated orange façade both connects to the existing brick architecture and introduces a contemporary element to the neighbourhood. The perforated surface gives the façade a visual depth, and is animated through the dynamic shadow patterns which it creates. The ground floor is fully glazed so that sunlight is screened through the perforated façade.

he Øresund or Öresund Bridge (Danish: Øresundsbroen, Swedish: Öresundsbron, joint hybrid name: Øresundsbron) is a combined two-track rail and four-lane road bridge-tunnel across the Öresund strait. It is the longest combined road and rail bridge in Europe and connects the two metropolitan areas of the Öresund Region: the Danish capital of Copenhagen and the Swedish city ofMalmö. The international European route E20 runs across the bridge and through the tunnel via the two lane motorway, as does theÖresund Railway Line. The construction of the Great Belt Fixed Link and the Øresund have connected mainland Europe to Sweden and the rest of Scandinavia. The bridge was designed by the Danish architectural practice Dissing+Weitling. The reason for incurring the additional cost and complexity of building a tunnel instead of another section of bridge is to avoid obstructing aircraft from nearby Copenhagen Airport and to provide a clear path for shipping. The bridge crosses the border between Denmark and Sweden, but due to the Schengen Agreement and the Nordic Passport Union there are no passport controls. There are frequent customs checks at the toll booths for those entering Sweden but not for those entering Denmark.

CHEAP EATS

ining out can be horrendously expensive in Denmark, particularly the gourmet places that tend to be far more costly than comparable restaurants in Paris and London on account of the Danes’s high wages and rental costs. Alcohol is also spectacularly costly in these kinds of restaurants, and Danes do not generally bring their own alcohol. Midrange dining options are also expensive, and you can easily spend 200kr on humdrum café meal. For cheaper food there is always smørrebrod, but otherwise the options are few – Thai and Chinese restaurants re common, but rarely authentic (and it is always a giveaway when a place claims to serve both cuisines, with perhaps a it of sushi thrown in). Mediterranean buffets and Italian restaurants that serve the standard pizza-and-pasta fare are good for cheap eats. Simple Greek, Lebanese and Turkish eateries selling inexpensive shawarma (a filling pitta-bread sandwich of shaved meat) are another favourite alternative ot the fast-food chains (which are actually not so ubiquitous as elsewhere in Europe). You can also find a cheap, if not particularly healthy, munch at one of the aforementioned pølsemænd (the wheeled carts that sell a variety of hot dogs and sausages – usually pork). If you are close to the coast, say on the north coast of Zealand or on Bornholm, head for the traditional smokehouses, where fresh smoked fish plates and all-you-can-eat buffets are on offer usually for around 100kr to 120kr. As for tipping, a 15% service charge is included in your restaurant bill and Danes do not normally tip, being fully aware of how comparatively well most waiting staff are paid. However, rounding up the bill is not uncommon when the service has been particularly good.

DRINKING

he Danes are crazy about coffee, indeed they are said to be the biggest consumers of coffee per capita in the world with a total consumption of over 20 million cups per day (that’s four each, for every man, woman, child and infant – no wonder they are said to be the second fastest walkers in the world). Hardly surprising then that all cafés serve kaffe (coffee) – many their own blend, made to perfection – as well as te (tea). In addition to the common brew, expect to find a good variety of capuccino, espresso and other drinks, particularly in Copenhagen, although places like MJ Coffee Cafe are fighting a stern rearguard action with unusual blends and superb expertise. In terms of soft drinks Mineralvand (mineral water) and the standard sodavad (soft drinks) such as Coca-Cola are widely available. Ring pull cans have been banned for years and most soft drinks, and all nondraught beers, are sold in bottles, many of which have refundable deposit included in the price. The tap water anywhere in Denmark is safe to drink. The most popular spirit in Denmark is the Aalborg-produced akvavit. There are several dozen types, the most common of which is made from potatoes and spiced with caraway seeds. In Denmark akvavit is not sipped but is swallowed straight down as shot, usually followed by chaser of beer. A popular Danish liqueur made from cherries is Peter Heering, which is good sipped straight or served over vanilla ice cream. Danes are prodigious producers and consumers of øl (beer). Carlsberg Breweries, based in Copenhagen, markets the Carlsberg and Tuborg labels and is the largest exporter of beer in Europe. Not all of the brew leaves home, however: Danes themselves down some seven million hectolitres (roughly two billion bottles) of brew per year, ranking them sixth among the world’s greatest beer drinkers. The best-selling beers in Denmark are pilsners, a lager with alcohol content of 4.6%, but there are scores of other beers to choose from. These range from light beers with an alcohol content of 1.7% to hearty stouts that kick in at 8%. You’ll find the percentage of alcohol listed on the bottle label. Danish beers are classified with ascending numbers according to the amount of alcohol they contain, with klasse 1 referring the common pilsners and klasse 4 to the strongest stouts. Also note that you get a cash refund when returning empty beer bottles to any supermarket (eg Netto). That 1,5kr per bottle cam add up if you’re having a session or just broke and looking for secondary income! Here’s a short list of beer terms: øl – beer| lyst øl – light beer | fadøl – draught | pilsner – lager | lagerøl – dark lager | porter – stout As well as keen coffee drinkers the Danes are enthusiastic when it comes to the consumption of wine too (there are even a couple of thriving vineyards in Denmark now). Over the last 30 years Danes have moved away from their favourite tipple of beer, to wine. Today they are said to be the world’s larges consumers of wine per capita, at 38.9L (the market is said to be worth around $1bn, with each adult spending $250 per year on wine). They favour red wine 75% over white 25% and consumption is still growing. Unlike the other Scandinavian countries, the Danish government does not hold monopoly on alcohol sales and, in fact, wine is the largest revenue category in the Danish grocery trade. Danes have a wider choice of wines in their shops than any other country in the world, and wine tends to be one of the best-value products you can buy in Danish supermarkets with even Netto having a good array of bottles for under 60kr. As with the British, the Dane’s preference for New World wines has grown dramatically in recent years. Bibliography: Lonely Planet Publications - Denmark
