Executive Summery The New Carlsberg Brewhouse Our proposal for the Carlsberg Brewhouse project begins with three questions: How does a brand experience create real, sustainable value? How are Carlsberg’s core values and heritage brought to life? And finally: what enables each individual guest to get a real, enhancing experience at Carlsberg? Looking at the field of brand experiences, it’s characterized by considerable change. Today, significant brand value generation is not only about being current and pushing communication to consumers at big exhibitions. Increasingly, it’s about engaging users by enabling genuine experiences, communities and sharing. People expect to be involved, to have a say – not just observe . What is the original Carlsberg answer to theses changes in brand experience design? Carlsberg’s own story holds the approach that points to the future. Historically, Carlsberg has not only made world-class beer, Carlsberg has a unique tradition of creating and sharing greatness with the wider society. Carlsberg was and is an unparalleled, generous supporter and facilitator of culture, science, art and music. In the spirit of Carlsberg’s heritage and in alignment with the developments within branding and brand management, we propose a modern culture house expressing the spirit of Carlsberg: Semper Ardens. While the history and heritage of Carlsberg is important, we find it crucial that Carlsberg’s message to its visitors from all over the world is more than a museum. Being true to the Carlsberg legacy is being innovative and engaged in contemporary culture and society. We have named our proposal New Carlsberg Brewhouse. It points to the original name and heritage of the building: Ny Carlsberg Bryghus – New Carlsberg Brewhouse as well as focusing on its content profile: New Carlsberg Brewhouse as a new, contemporary destination where Carlsberg can evolve and flourish as a global company together with its consumers and partners. It conveys Carlsberg as a creative and courageous company, heading for the future.
What about the great cultural heritage and the many fascinating stories connected to Carlsberg? We intend to integrate Carlsberg’s stories and heritage in New Carlsberg Brewhouse as well as in the Carlsberg district. Old Carlsberg, Bar Jacobsen, the cellars and the many fascinating, authentic places and building in the Carlsberg district become experience touchpoints. Carlsberg is the only brewery in the world with an entire city district named after it. We create an interface for visitors to explore the area, integrating modern media, architecture and human touch-points. We call this Carlsberg experience, highlighting on-site cultural heritage, Carlsberg Explorer. What does this mean for the visitor to New Carlsberg Brewhouse? First of all, it means that users can get a more precise, valuable and relevant experience. New Carlsberg Brewhouse can sustain a dynamic, differentiated program, relevant for both the Copenhagener and the tourist. Creating an active, cultural platform – in the spirit of the Carlsberg district development – makes New Carlsberg Brewhouse relevant to locals. By making the brewhouse an interface for an authentic Copenhagen experience this therefore makes Carlsberg a mustsee destination for tourists in Copenhagen . By creating a dynamic cultural centre, with ever-changing content as well as offering the means to explore the Carlsberg District and Copenhagen, New Carlsberg Brewhouse can generate long-tem value for the Carlsberg Group, for users and consumers, partners and employees alike. As a platform for partnerships and collaboration with Danish and international partners, New Carlsberg Brewhouse enables Carlsberg to remain an attractive, value generating destination. Rooted in Copenhagen, relevant for the world. Dedicated to enable people to share great moments, powered by Carlsberg.

It offers a modern platform of the social and cultural commitment of J.C and Carl Jacobsen as it connects to culture, innovation and social commitment. Offering the public world-class experiences filtered trough the Carlsberg values and brand focus, Carlsberg creates something truly relevant and important for its audience. As opposed to many traditional brand centres, New Carlsberg Brewhouse doesn’t just tell the story of Carlsberg – it facilitates quality experiences in dialogue with users and producers.
Carlsberg enabling participation Carlsberg is – both as the beer we drink and the sponsor we know – a strong curator of social content.

Connected to Copenhagen A central element to New Carlsberg Brewhouse is a strong connection to Copenhagen’s cultural institutions, producers, sites and events. Carlsberg’s own foundations (Carlsberg Fondet, Ny Carlsberg Fondet and Tuborg Fondet) alone, present a significant amount of world class content – a story rarely told. But New Carlsberg Brewhouse can also link itself to the cultural flourish we have seen in recent years in Copenhagen. Events such as CPH DOX, Copenhagen Jazz Festival and CPH Fashion Week, can be welcomed by the New Carlsberg Brewhouse and open up a wide potential of co-branding. This can be extended to international collaborations, promoting New Carlsberg Brewhouse as the place to be in Copenhagen.
Creating value together New Carlsberg Brewhouse is perfectly in alignment with the newest market trends. It both understands the nature of an experience-based economy – and looks towards an economy more involved in transformation and interaction. Creating valuable, meaningful and educational experiences is not only important – it is most definitely a crucial market on the rise. New Carlsberg Brewhouse is a future oriented answer to the question of creating true value – both economically and socially
– for the company and for Carlsberg users, consumers and fans. Creating a true collaborative content platform in a unique Copenhagen context can put Carlsberg up in the top when it comes to international press and attention.
A social ambition The curatorial concept of New Carlsberg Brewhouse supports initiatives, activities and projects that has the ability to bring joy to as many as possible and thus promotes social togetherness. This lies within the framework of Tuborg Fondet and links to many of Carlsberg Foundation activities – in a popular, modern way. New Carlsberg Brewhouse shows fresh direction in progressive Corporate Social Responsibility, with New Carlsberg Brewhouse, Carlsberg can introduce a CSR approach that has direct value for customers, as they can see and experience the worthy initiatives made possible by Carlsberg. This can become a crucial link to the customer in the future.

Carlsberg District
A contemporary culture destination
A cultural heritage to explore
An interface to the city
New Carlsberg Brewhouse is created as a contemporary culture and community house, presenting the best of Danish and international culture, sports and science. The essence of New Carlsberg Brewhouse is meeting user, seasonal and cultural demands and trends in dynamic and creative ways, in the spirit of Carlsberg. Designed to present the culture of today and tomorrow, Carlsberg Brewhouse offers the public a unique place to experience real, authentic and modern expressions of the Carlsberg spirit – rooted in Copenhagen, open towards the world.
Carlsberg is the only brewery in the world to have created an entire city district that bears its name. Many of the stories as well as much of the unique building heritage connected to Carlsberg are to be found in the Carlsberg District. That’s why our main heritage experiences are based in the Carlsberg area, with Old Carlsberg as a focal point. We present Carlsberg Explorer as a digital and social interface organizing Carlsberg stories in meaningful ways for the visitors. Carlsberg Explorer combines human touch points and films, audio-narratives, augmented reality, archive footage and photos that can be accessed digitally onsite on tablets or shown on projections.
To make New Carlsberg Brewhouse and Carlsberg district a success for tourists, we must create a destination that is unmissable. We propose Carlsberg Brewhouse as a friendly hub for tourists, connecting them to Copenhagen. New Carlsberg Brewhouse and Carlsberg offers not only a magnificent view but great food and unforgettable experiences. The Brewhouse makes it easier for tourists to navigate Copenhagen offering Carlsberg guides, maps and bikes that point to interesting cultural destinations in Copenhagen – of which quite a few are funded by Carlsberg.

New Carlsberg Brewhouse Making Carlsberg Present Show, don’t tell
A place for sharing great moments
Creating a truly great destination linking the story of a company and the wishes of different users is a delicate task. New Carlsberg Brewhouse bridges contemporary passion for culture and sports with the legacy of Carlsberg – not only by representing Carlsberg culture, but by making contemporary culture possible. At the core of the approach to New Carlsberg Brewhouse is the focus on sharing, engaging and developing content together. Rather than a fixed exhibition concept, New Carlsberg Brewhouse is designed to facilitate diverse and dynamic programs related to the Carlsberg program. Show, don’t tell, is the mantra. Rather than displaying greatness, we want people to be a part of it..
Rather than putting a museum experience in the centre, we focus on the meetings and transformations Carlsberg enables. Carlsberg Brewhouse offers a variety of experiences, inviting visitors and stakeholders to engage in new communities and events powered by Carlsberg.
The value of right here, right now The nature of New Carlsberg Brewhouse enables Carlsberg to connect to trends and events that interest tourists, locals and business partners. As a brand centre, the aim for New Carlsberg Brewhouse is to be a must see destination in Copenhagen. By being able to respond right here, right now, Carlsberg can remain interesting – both for the wider public, in the news circuit – and for key collaborators. Furthermore, New Carlsberg Brewhouse, makes Carlsberg well suited to develop and sustain longterm strategic partnerships with Copenhagen promotional activities, campaigns and destination branding initiatives. These partnerships are crucial in the international promotion and communication of tourist destinations.
From fixed exhibition to eventbased experiences
Engaging different communities Rather than the traditional fixed exhibition tour we propose a designed and an organizational structure that enables visitors to customize their own narrative and engage in their preferred events and communities facilitated by Carlsberg. Focused around themes such as the company, taste, science, beer, sports, heritage, business, music and arts Carlsberg can come closer to the core of people’s passions – and make real, valuable events take place.
A dynamic cultural platform
From one size fits all to customized experiences
Rather than a static exhibition concept, which often quickly becomes outdated and rarely desired by the public, we facilitate dynamic content production based on Carlsberg’s values and interests. The Brewhouse building design and an organizational structure enables a rich variety of events and activities as the main brand experience.
Access points The Carlsberg stories are many and diverse. Creating different access points is key to invite people inside and then aid in guiding them on a journey around past and present, business and arts, culture and science. We present a thematic structure curating Carlsberg’s great stories and making them available to different types of visitors. The themes are integrated in both the physical and virtual access points and supports navigation and customization for the vistors. 3

Main Structure Transforming the Brewhouse Authentic spaces At the core of Carlsberg Brewhouse is the real authentic space of the historical Brewhouse. The modernized Carlsberg Brewhouse contains a rich blend of flexible spaces that makes it possible to host a wide range of activities related to Carlsberg.
Historic and contemporary The overall character of the New Carlsberg Brewhouse is authentic. In our strategy of transformation we strive to preserve the authentic experience of Carlsbergs industrial grandness and legacy as well as a genuine experience in terms of the new functions and activities introduced into the New Carlsberg Brewhouse. The New carlsberg Brewhouse highlights contemporary content and stories in a real, historical context. The architectural concept supports a flexible content strategy, and enhances the architectural values of the individual rooms of the Brewhouse. The different spaces are designed with unique functionality, character and program that yet enable a diversity of uses.

Heritage
Industrial Spaces
The Brewhouse from 1901 was designed by Vilhelm Klein and Carl Harild and stands as a strong example of the high ambitions of Carl Jacobsen - an icon of the Historicistic epoch and the exuberant architecture of the time. The italian inspired facade and the Elephant Portal constitute a powerful iconographic and wellknown landmark for Carlsberg and for the New Carlsberg Brewhouse.
A cross section of The Brewhouse reveals a unique interior of highly differentiated industrial spaces. Each space with its own structure, scale, raw industrial beauty and unique experience. We propose to use the unique industrial structure as it stands, changing as little as possible but as much as needed to service the new functions of the house.
Entrance Plaza
Roofscape
Circulation
The Brewhouse has three central main gates that makes the main entrance of the house. One is used as a bikepassage connecting the district straight through the Brewhouse. The two others are opened up and glazed enhancing transparency and communication between the Brewhouse and the surrounding cityspaces. At ground level Carlsberg World Bar floats into Bryghuspladsen as a welcoming gesture from the Brewhouse to the world and to the city. From the backside of the Brewhouse a rental bikes service will bring visitors further into the Carlsberg District and Copenhagen.
The Brewhouse roof top is the peak on Carlsberg (Carlsmountain) offering unique panorama overlooking the district as well as Copenhagen.
The introduction of new functions demands a new concept for circulation and safety. A new main circulation is introduced. The central stair in the Kettlehall is extended to create a central entrance to the Brewhouse.
The old roof is transformed into a new roofscape finalizing the interior circulation with an external connection making the district and the city an integrated part of the Brewhouse experience. The new roof connects the interior and exterior of the brewhouse in a distinct and original way and creates a series of open air spaces for different uses and events.
Two new main stairs with lifts are introduced for internal circulation. They connect the shifting floors of the house enabling new cross communication. Existing lifts and staircases are preserved for secondary circulation, escape routes and transport of goods.

Using the industrial heritage
The new Brewhouse roof
The Brewhouse has around 11 different main spaces to be transformed into Carlsberg brand spaces.
The three roofs of the Brewhouse will be transformed to allow for the visitors to access the roofscape and enjoy the magnificent view overlooking Copenhagen and the Carlsberg district. The transformation create new indoor and outdoor spaces for additional activities and therefore allows for a general refurbishment, enhancing the energy effeciency of this roof facade.
Together they offer a complex and rich industrial heritage and a unique and differentiated spatial experience that we strongly advise to preserve throughout the transformation of the building to fit the new uses and users. Rather than superimposing a single character to the building we propose to use the unique and surprising spaces in the Brewhouse by introducing new uses and by connecting them in new ways. Each of the unique spaces are carefully transformed to make the best of the qualities found. This will allow for the house to keep its rich diversity in spaces which will then support a rich and diverse future use and activitiey of the house.
The roofs of the westwing are transformed to accomodate a new conference space and to connect with the the roof of the Kettlehall. The roof on the eastwing is transformed to accomodate a skybar also connecting to the roof of the Kettlehall. The roof of the Kettlehall is part of the listed space beneath and is preserved. The Kettlehall roof can be crossed on a wooden skywalk connecting the western and eastern wings across the peak of the Brewhouse. The refurbishment of the Kettlehall roof is proposed in recycled copper to make it part of the unique Carlsberg roof experience.

Services
Flexibility concept The New Carlsberg Brewhouse offers a combination of fixed facilties and flexible spaces. The fixed facilities hold core services as well as technical demanding facilities such as kitchens and auditoriums. The flexible spaces are more generic and open, for events and activities creating brand value, attention and great moments for the visitors and users of the Brewhouse to experience. These spaces can host short term events as well as more long term exhibitions or activities according to the brand value creation and operational needs of the Brewhouse. Following this transformation strategy the Brewhouse becomes a building of many different interconnected spaces that can accommodate a wide range of different activities in different constellations, combined, integrated or seperated.
Technical
Carlsberg Core Space The central building becomes the Carlsberg Core Space of the house. The various spaces of the two wings are closely linked to this space creating a clear linkage between temporary activities, events and exhibitions and the more permanent and scenographic brandspace in the core building. This will link events Carlsberg. The three wings of the building allow for a high degree of flexibity in use. The core building with entrance, lobby, service facilities and the Kettlehall become a permanent Carlsberg Brand Space working as a framework while servicing the different events in the spaces of the two wings. This main organisation enable sa great flexibity and the potential to use the spaces individually or in different combinations across the building which will increase the capacity and potential for larger events.

The story of yeast – Saccharomyces Carlsbergensis. Description: The taste lab is a core destination and function in the Brewhouse. The outer part of The Taste Lab is a laboratory of taste allowing for the visitors to experiment with the science of taste creation and innovation. With the skilled staff of the Lab they can test their senses and learn about the chemistry behind good taste and about the quality of great beer. Using the kitchen as a laboratory the staff can
also produce food and teach about food creation and the science of food and taste in line with the new nordic kitchen- and molecular cooking movements. The kitchen has a staff of highly qualified standard that can communicate with and handle vistors as well as prepare high quality food. The Taste Lab combines more permanent activities and themes (such as chemistry of the beer) with
a program of ever changing themes. The Lab can be curated for a period by highly profiled local or international chefs, differentiating the taste experience, the menu and activities over time. The inner part of the Tastelab serves as the main production kitchen and is accessed only by the staff. The kitchen offer brunch, lunch, and dinner with a focus on Nordic quality and taste with beer as ingredients for the Taste Gallery restaurant in the Kettlehall as well as for the remaining functions of the Brewhouse.

Carlsberg Roofscape The must see destination at Carlsberg Main functions:
Promenade, viewpoint, outdoor exhibitions and events. Character:
Being close to Carlsberg towers Value creation:
A unique experience in Copenhagen The roofscape of Carlsberg is a mythical place of spires, towers, copper statues and chimneys. To experience the district and heritage of Carlsberg from this perspective is a truly unique experience and a must see destination
in Copenhagen. The old roof of the brewhouse is transformed into an accessible stepped landscape of plateaus and stairs making it possible to walk across the roof, hang out and enjoy the magnificent view over Carlsberg District and Copenhagen. The Brewhouse Plaza connects with the Copenhagen Bar and The Taste Lab on the east sideand to the Mindlab on the West side. The Kettlehall is accessed on both sides.
On the western side the sloping plaza steps down, creating two outdoor amphi-theatres that can be used for open air lectures, movie screening, presentations or hangout space in relation to the Mind Lab. The many plateaus can serve as a rooftop gallery for open air exhibitions of art or sculptures. On the east side, the plaza is split into a lower and a higher level. The lower is in direct relation with the Copenhagen Bar and enables outdoor serving on the south side under cover or open air. The higher part is a viewing platform from where the stunning view over the district and Copenhagen can be enjoyed. 21

Fire strategy
To arrange an older, worth preserving industrial building with so much history for creative purposes such as restaurants, exhibitions lectures, concerts etc. is a challenge. Also as the building will hold a lot of assembly rooms with a large number of people, all with little knowledge in regards of means of egress.
In the building the following active fire protection systems will be installed: - Automatic fire alarm system - Emergency voice and alarm communication system. This must be connected to the automatic fire alarm system. - Sprinkler system - Smoke and heat ventilation (mechanical or natural) in the large room “Kettle Hall” - Exit and emergency lighting
Finally, the building must be very flexible - both in terms of allocation of guests, the use, layout and arrangement. All this taken together, provide a challenge in the design of the general circulation as well as fire safety strategy for the building.
Using existing service infrastructure Existing goodslifts are used as service cores enabling the distribution of large goods in both sides of the building. Using the westwing lift the Tastelab can distribute prepared food to the roofscape and the Copenhagen Bar upstairs, and simple dishes can be distributed to the Carlsberg World Bar on the street lavel. The lift enable the Tastelab to make use of storage facilities on the ground level underneath the Silo.
The three existing staircases are used as escape routes. In addition, the possibility of escape to a safe zone is used in the evacuation strategy. This means that the building is divided vertically into three main fire compartments, where to escape is possible. When people are safe in another fire compartment they will then be able to evacuate to ground level.
South facade 1:500
The Basement, Gallery C, Carls Auditorium as well as the Mindspace are serviced by the second lift in the back of the eastwing. Along with the firestairs the lift makes a “backstage” distribution of goods and people. For larger events in Carls Auditorium, the Mindspace can serve as VIP space for artists and performers.

New Carlsberg Brewhouse Content Strategy A platform for bringing people together The New Carlsberg Brewhouse can bring together tourists, locals, consumers, customers, employees and communities of interest around Carlsberg’s brand and values. Curatorial concept: Celebrating greatness together The content strategy of New Carlsberg Brewhouse supports the ambition of celebrating greatness together – sharing great moments. New Carlsberg Brewhouse is a strong expression to support initiatives, activities and projects that have the ability to bring quality and joy to as many as possible. It promotes the passionate desire to do great and supports the social aspect integral to the enjoyment of beer. But not only that: the right strategic collaborations, linking the right partners and people to Carlsberg can create substantial brand value.
Creating value through partnerships To ensure long term and sustainable brand value creation, more is needed than traditional commercial communication. Increasingly, brand value stems from partnerships with other actors and the wider public. By connecting with attractive partners, to Copenhagen and to the public, New Carlsberg Brewhouse can sustain the Carlsberg brand in a deeper way than a traditional brand centre. Furthermore, It allows for Carlsberg to react to trends and tendencies and connect people around the brand in contemporary, engaging ways.
Content development organisation We propose an organizational model with a mix of curated events by New Carlsberg Brewhouse and a range of collaborations with Danish and international partners. The model sets up a group of Carlsberg curators within selected Carlsberg fields of interests: beer & food, culture, sports and science. To develop the curatorial practice in more detail, the team proposes a development process designed to include relevant Carlsberg decision makers and cultural actors alongside Denmark and abroad. We are confident that this model will create a more sustainable brand, experience and economic value compared to that of a traditional, static experience design model.

Mediating past and present Carlsberg experience strategy Our strategy presents a double ambition: making New Carlsberg Brewhouse a contemporary cultural destination as well as hub for exploring the heritage of Carlsberg.
Explorer interface.
A hub for the Carlsberg District Rather than creating a sealed off brand space, we propose a hub connecting Carlsberg to the surrounding urban life and culture in the Carlsberg district as well as in Copenhagen. The Brewhouse lobby can serve as a reception for the Carlsberg District as a whole. A point of departure and a place to go when you visit copenhagen.
A crucial challenge is filtering the rich and varied stories and actions that characterize Carlsberg with its unique local heritage and current global outreach. The team’s proposal organizes places and routes in the Carlsberg Neighbourhood with different qualities and identities, mediating past and present and reaching out to different user groups. Overall, the New Carlsberg Brewhouse is Carlsberg’s hub and the home of contemporary culture. Old Carlsberg hosts more historical and heritage-oriented experiences, especially Bar Jacobsen and Jacobsen Brewery, the courtyard and the stables. This division ensures clarity in terms of framing user expectations and organizing experiences. However, the point is also that the brand new culture at Carlsberg Brewhouse is true to the Carlsberg’s heritage – and old actions and events can communicated in both modern and innovative ways.
Destinations meets content The differentiated destinations and routes and the combination of virtual and human interaction turns a Carlsberg-visit into a rich, varied experience. In this framework both heritage and contemporary culture can be present – as we supply an intuitive, inspiring and user-oriented inter-face that enables the visitor to navigate through histories and exhibition elements according to interests and inspirationg using the Carlsberg 29

Connecting to Old Carlsberg Our proposal centres a visit to Carlsberg around the New Carlsberg Brewhouse as interface to the whole Carlsberg area and Copenhagen. A main second destination is Old Carlsberg, acting as a place for celebrating the Carlsberg heritage and brewing tradition. The axis between New Carlsberg Brewhouse and Old Carlsberg is a spinal chord in experiencing the area, supported by both digital and physical touch points.
Choose your own way Rather than a uniform, one-way route through a fixed exhibition, we propose a dynamic brand experience that enable visitors to tailor their own routes through the Carlsberg area. Using online navigation structures at its core, Carlsberg Explorer opens up for a super flexible and intuitive way of navigating trough the Carlsberg stories and neighbourhood.

Carlsberg Explorer I Physical and virtual touchpoints The visitor at the New Carlsberg Brewhouse and district is welcomed by a fine-tuned combination of physical and virtual experience touchpoints mediating Carlsberg stories. Carlsberg explorer touch points Turning content into absorbing experiences is about bringing stories to life – at the right place at the right time. We call our platform, bridging places and content, Carlsberg Explorer. At the core is a combination of physical touch-points and media-based narratives. At the physical touch points Carlsberg’s central stories are filtered into to thematic hotspots at selected locations, such as the Brewhouse Lobby, the cellars and Bar Jacobsen. The virtual touch points, in the form of films, audio-guides and games available on different media platforms, can be accessed from tablets throughout the Carlsberg district.
The right story, the right place Many visitors experience a brand centre as an information overload – or even worse: as irrelevant bragging. That is why we propose a dynamic interface that enables visitors to explore Carlsberg starting from the users point of view. If you have strong interest in beer, sports or arts, you can highlight these aspects in your tour. If you get curious in front of the Elephant Gate, the Winding Chimney or at Carlsberg Lab, Carlsberg Explorer invites you to know more. Rather than imposing one story, we offer many access points to a library of content, thus opening up to different types of visitors and situations.

EFFEKT + ARTHESIA + LOOP + UIWE + NIRAS
A variety of physical touch points Essential to creating a valuable visitor experience is offering variation of touch points with different qualities. Selected touch points like the Brewhouse Lobby, Bar Jacobsen and Taste Lab feature human interaction with Carlsberg hosts, guides, brewers and tasteexperts. Others feature interactive experience elements, such as the interactive tables at Copenhagen Bar and flip-trough screens at the lobby and the Kettle Room. Sensual experiences are promoted in the Stables and in the cellar. As a rule, artefacts are used as scenography connected to interactive media-experiences containing short, strong narrated stories shown and displayed with projections and tablets.
An integrated experience Many traditional brand experiences offer a standard tour, leaving little choice to the visitor. Often the experiences are very divided into compartments: typically: the one-route-museum-tour, the restaurant, the shop, the event space. At New Carlsberg Brewhouse you can learn about the Carlsberg design history, while looking for a present at the design shop in the Kettle Room. You can discover Carlsberg’s Copenhagen, while enjoying the view and a beer at Copenhagen Bar. You can experience Carlsberg’s new beer taste while having dinner at Bar Jacobsen. We believe that the modern user appreciates a much more undefined, free navigation and that mixing exhibition, shopping and eating in new ways can increase both the quality of the experience and the generated profit for Carlsberg.

Carlsberg Explorer II Virtual experience touchpoints Putting the visitor in the driver seat to explore Carlsberg District. Bringing Carlsberg’s history to life The Carlsberg district, with its unique historical, industrial architecture is at the core of the experience for the tourist visiting Carlsberg. Authentic places, buildings and sites are bought to life using augmented reality, films, projections, audio-stories, archive footage and photos. Carlsberg Explorer makes online content dynamic and available everywhere on tablets and smart phones – rather than costly and soon-to-be-outdated panels and displays. Being super flexible, the Carlsberg Explorer enables diverse and contemporary use of spaces both in Brewhouse and in the Carlsberg neighbourhood. Being created online, content is easy to share, like and comment – onsite and online.
Experience design style Our experience concept bases itself on the Danish tradition of storytelling. From H.C. Anderson to contemporary Danish series and films, the focus is strong, well-narrated narratives. Rather than an exhibition on static objects, we develop a range of story formats using sound, image and interaction. Films, audio-guides, stories etc. can be displayed at projections and tablets reacting to peoples choices and preferences. This way, Carlsberg Explorer takes the best from online navigations – with its many opportunities to keep discovering more – and fuses it with a precise framework of spatial structures and rich, human interaction points.

EFFEKT + ARTHESIA + LOOP + UIWE + NIRAS
The gamelayer As a part of The Carlsberg Explorer development process, the team proposes to explore a game layer design adding value to the visitor experience. The game layer include physical movement, quizzes and team-based games, using the projections, tablets and the Carlsberg district as the playing field. Games can be targeted different usergroups and enhance the visitor involvement. In the collaborative spirit of Carlsberg and using the Carlsberg Explorer platform, Carlsberg can also open up for external game-providers.
Content production design The outlined approach to experience design and content creation is to be developed in close collaboration with Carlsberg as well as relevant external partners. Carlsberg already have an impressive bank of stories and knowledge available. The database of dynamic, tagged content can be developed over time, incorporating new stories, games and interaction features.

The development strategy enables the New Carlsberg Brewhouse organisation to react to users and develop experiences accordingly. Opposed to the “build one big exhibtion approach” the approach can incorporate feedback, making it more likely to succeed. A fundamental point of this process is a firm belief in the necessity of framing content which aims to inspire the visitors – both emotionally and physically – using new media interfaces and real life interactions.

Creating a Carlsberg Community Connecting to Copenhagen and beyond

New
Brew g r e b s l r Ca R SINCE
MEMBE
A Carlsberg membership to develop, sustain and magnify its value creation beyond the visit to Carlsberg. Facilitating community creation Creating long-term value is key to harvest the potentials of a brand centre. In order to ensure that a brand center visit becomes more than just another experience, we target the creation of communities, networks and communication opportunities around the Brewhouse. As a visitor at Carlsberg Brewhouse, you receive not only a great experience at Carlsberg, you are equipped to navigate and access Copenhagen destinations, events and services with your Carlsberg Community Membership. And for the visitor, it is made convenient and relevant to share what you do with the people around you.
Exponential brand value creation The Carlsberg Explorer encourages visitors to establish a Carlsberg membership connected with social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter. Making it easy for the visitors to share their experiences at Carlsberg – or experiences in Copenhagen, facilitated by Carlsberg – is an incredibly efficient tool for brand value creation. Increasingly, the access to users and consumers is through recommendations and sharing on social media. This development is at the core of the Carlsberg Community as it connects visitors to relevant experiences and encourages on-line sharing. Furthermore, the membership structure enables Carlsberg to get valuable knowledge about their visitors and consumers. It grants Carlsberg a database of users and consumers that they can be in touch with. The visitor, on the other hand, benefits by getting customized services and helpful tools, as well as relevant offers and guides – both at Carlsberg and beyond. 35

Value for the visitor Visitors to Copenhagen as well as other tourist destinations are increasingly seeking the unique, authentic experiences of the locals. Studies show that facilitating this meeting is increasingly important and a key to generate revenue. The Carlsberg Explorer kit can be the visitor’s inter-face to Copenhagen, mediated by Carlsberg. For the visitor, going to New Carlsberg Brewhouse becomes more than just visiting a destination. Carlsberg Community presents a real opportunity to get connected to Copenhagen and Copenhageners.
Value for the Copenhagener As a real, diverse culture house with dynamic content, New Carlsberg Brewhouse can connect to the local community in ways very different from a traditional brand centre. Rather than being a visit made once or twice in your life, you will recurrently be provided with exciting reasons to go Carlsberg. As a Carlsberg Community member, you can get updates on experiences that suit exactly you – whether your main interest is food, sports or music, arts, science or beer. It can be seen as a Carlsberg version of the Politiken Plus membership opening a wide range of discounts, events and services for the community members.
Business community membership A central dimension of New Carlsberg Brewhouse is strengthening Carlsberg position as conference, meeting and event destination. The combination of Carlsberg’s diverse existing meeting facilities with the new, larger spaces in Mindspace and Carl’s Auditorium makes Carlsberg a unique, meeting destination. It encapsulates what is increasingly sought after within the conference market: places with real history, strong identity, flexible spaces and urban context. Carlsberg Business Community can offer special services to business partners, such as exclusive packages, meeting experiences and Christmas Lunch specials, connecting them even closer to Carlsberg.

The Carlsberg bike is not only an attractive feature that can make it even more attractive to visit Carlsberg. It also functions as a strong brand element, as tourists bring the branded bikes around town – and the story of this strong Danish tradition of sustainability around the world.

New Carlsberg Brewhouse in a global perspective Locally grounded, globally connected
Local is the global
Double value outcome
The core idea of New Carlsberg Brewhouse is becoming a relevant cultural destination, linked to the local, Copenhagen context. Is this the way to go for a touristdestination with international outreach ambitions? Increasingly, it is by being local, you get global attention. NOMA and the Nordic food experience is a good example of this development. By creating a real Copenhagen destination, Carlsberg becomes more interesting than a “generic international experience” connected to nowhere. This awareness is at the basis for our strategy for exporting the New Carlsberg Brewhouse: it’s about a an approach and a design that connects globally to the local.
The Global Carlsberg Community will present a double value outcome. For the local community, in Copenhagen as well in other parts of the world, it represents local value creation, dedication and social enagement of Carlsberg as a global co-orporation. For tourist and business travellers and global citizents it represents a way into the authentic local communities. an invitation to take part in local culture life and social activities. Carlsberg Community is all about sharing the best and as a member you are always invited.
Carlsberg Community - international While the New Carlsberg Brewhouse can never be copied, the core principles of the Brewhouse can be applied for visitor centre development and broader event branding in other parts of the Carlsberg Group. Other Carlsberg brand centres or brand events can take their point of departure in the core principle of New Carlsberg Brewhouse: it’s about sharing great moments and about connecting to people and events rooted in the specific regional context. This tells the story about how the Carlsberg Group is bringing its Danish outset into a globalized context, in respect of different cultural contexts.

Replicating social responsibility Carlsbergs long history of social responsibility and society engagement is second to none. More than a hundred years before the conception of CSR was invented, Carlsberg was sharing its research results with the public, investing in art and architecture and making massive cultural contributions to the Danish people and society. By replicating the social and cultural engagement that Carlsberg has become known and loved for in Denmark and Copenhagen, Carlsberg is not only sharing and replicating core brand values and brand value creation, It is also a responsive and respectful way to engage with local communities around the world. In this way Carlsberg brand centres internationally can point to the specific Danish roots – and tell the story about how the Carlsberg Group is transfering this outset to a globalized context, in great respect of the unique cultural and social values and qualities of the local context and space.

New Carlsberg Brewhouse Creating shared value Some 150 years ago, the Jacobsen family began a unique company history. The history of a family and a company dedicated to brew the best beer in the world. The history of an unparalleled dedication to art, culture and science. And the history of sharing the best with the people. Carlsberg was a lighthouse of innovation, creativity and Corporate Social Responsibility before these words were buzzwords. New Carlsberg Brewhouse is a modern version of this Carlsberg spirit, always burning for quality and for business development, but also dedicated to social and cultural development. The Brewhouse brings the Carlsberg tradition of supporting culture, arts and science and sharing it with people into the 21st century. Not by only exhibiting the legacy of Carlsberg, but by keeping it alive as a spirit. In the spirit of Semper Ardens, New Carlsebrg Brewhouse is a living space, inviting and including people and events to become part of Carlsberg’s world.

The generous and bold step of creating New Carlsberg Brewhouse can create a new understanding of Carlsberg for the many visitors from abroad who have no idea about the unique position Carlsberg holds in Denmark. It also positions Carlsberg uniquely in relation to the other brands, taking on a real Danish – but globally oriented – approach to brand value creation. New Carlsberg Brewhouse can be both truly local and really global, submerged heritage while pointing to the future, both do good and generate profit. It’s not a question of either-or but about designing the right interface that makes this possible.
