Nordlyset : Nye Bygning i København, Danmark

New Housing in Copenhagen - design by Arkitektfirmaet C. F. Møller

21 Apr 2008 Nordlyset Copenhagen Location: Copenhagen, Denmark Architects: Arkitektfirmaet C. F. Møller Nordlyset (Northern Lights) is a sculptural residential block with an expressive facade, located in the new urban quarter around Amerika Plads in Copenhagen. The development takes the form of a white-plastered block surrounding an interior outdoor courtyard. The facade line is broken to the north and south, giving the building an organic expression, while the bright and friendly-looking apartments enjoy a view of the Sound. The details emphasise the overall expression, with coloured glass panels in a bright striped pattern, designed in co-operation with the visual artist Ruth Campau. The glass panels divide off the balconies, and are also utilised in the block’s entry areas. Nordlyset residential block - Building Information Client: JM Danmark A/S Construction: E.
