5 photo: Jens Lindke photo: Marloes Faber Tietgenkollegiet Rued Langgaards Vej DK-2300 Copenhagen The 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 m², provide a view of the surroundings The communal kitchens, recreation rooms, terraces and utility rooms are located facing towards the courtyard photo: Marloes Faber Project is not public! m² Artist Structural engineer Technical engineer Lundgaard & Tranberg Arkitektfirma Aggebo & Henriksen COWI Henrik Jørgensen landskabsarkitekter Marianne Levinsen The Nordea Danmark Fund Fonden Tietgenkollegiet Landscape designer Marloes_Faber Metro M1: Islands brygge st Walking: about 15 minutes from city center 5

7 photo: NGHM photo: NGHM Radisson Sas Royal Hotel Hammerichsgade Copenhagen This 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 high-tech 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" Project is public! 1960 Arne Jacobsen Radisson Sas boeboe photo: NGHM The Radisson SAS Royal Hotel is located in the heart of the Danish capital, across from the main railway station and just 25 minutes from the Copenhagen International Airport The hotel offers underground parking and easy access to major car rental agencies 7

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 photo: Amager Strand Project is public! , Urban planner Hasløv & Kjærsgaard Arkitektfirma Amager Strandpark I/S, City of Copenhagen, Frederiksberg Municipality, Copenhagen County Copenhagen_X Amager Beach is situated along Amager Strandvej in Copenhagen You can easily get there by bike from the center of the city Another possibility is to take the Metro to Lergravsparken Station and then walk 15 minutes along Øresundsvej You can also go by bus number 12 from Copenhagen Airport or from the bus terminal at the City Hall 8

10 photo: Piotr Krajewski photo: Piotr Krajewski Harbour Isle Apartments Havneholmen Copenhagen The residential project occupies a unique location on a harbour island in a former industrial area, close to both park areas and the centre of Copenhagen To make best of the exceptional location, the project is divided into smaller building volumes, relating to views, solar exposure, and harbour In addition to providing unobstructed view sight lines for each unit, the design creates a variation in apartment types and the corresponding balconies Staggered projecting bays with corner windows provide panoramas of harbour and city, while also screening views from neighbours, insuring the privacy of each apartment The project consists of 236 exclusive apartments with an average area of 101 m2/1087 ft2, consisting primarily of two and three bedroom apartments, a small portion of which are two levels The entire project, including the projecting bays, is rendered in warm white stucco, while the fenestration has teak profiles Project is not public! m² Technical engineer Lundgaard & Tranberg Arkitektfirma Niras Sjælsø Gruppen pkrajewski_pl photo: Piotr Krajewski 10

13 photo: Jens Lindhe photo: Jens Lindhe Crèche Krausesvej Krausesvej Copenhagen The local plan allowed for only one story to be built on the site, which was to be used for a day-care center The architectural challenges were to create enough space inside and out for employees and 36 children on a fairly small site, to ensure enough light for the institution, which is bounded by apartment buildings five and six stories tall, to keep the new building from taking light and air from the neighbours, and especially to create a style that would harmonize with the surroundings The project met the many physical and functional challenges in an almost pragmatic way The institution covers nearly the whole site except for a single incision, which lets daylight into the building, on the one hand, and leaves room for an enclosed outdoor space on street level, on the other It was designed around two parallel slabs One is the ground and the other is the roof, which is used for outdoor recreational space that is nearly as large as the institution's c 530 sq m of indoor space photo: Jens Lindhe Project is not public! m² Dorte Mandrup s City of Copenhagen Copenhagen_X By S-train: Nordhavn station (all lines except H and F stop here) By bus: 1A to Gustav Adolfs Gade (for detailed instructions, visit wwwrejseplanendk) 13
