Dansk Arkitektur - København : Danish Business School

Contemporary Danish Building - design by Lundgaard & Tranberg Arkitekter

7 Jul 2008 The Wedge Copenhagen Denmark Design: Lundgaard & Tranberg Arkitekter photo : Jens Lindhe The project consists of both an urban plan for the Business School campus located on an abandoned rail yard and a new faculty building. photograph : Jens Lindhe ‘The Wedge’s’ name and geometry are derived from the angled geometry of the site. The building consists of a four storey prismatic volume resting on a sculpted earth base integrated into the surrounding landscape. In contrast to the prismatic exterior, an irregular oval shaped atrium extends the full height of the interior, accessing all of the building’s functions and providing the spatial focus of the project. Full storey screens of wood, matte glass, and copper characterize the facades. The screens rotate in response to sun, weather, and user, giving a constantly varying facade expression. image : Jens Lindhe New Danish Business School - Building Information Competition: 2002 - 1st prize Construction period: 2004-05 Client: Copenhagen Business School Consultant: EMCON Engineer: Niras A/S Landscape: Marianne Levinsen / Algreen & Bruhn Artwork: Aggebo & Henriksen Area: 10.700 m2/115,000 ft2 Address: Kilevej, Frederiksberg The Wedge - Copenhagen Business School Awards: RIBA European Award 2006 Nominated for Mies van der Rohe Award 2007 Lundgaard Tranberg Arkitekfirma
