Bispebjerg General Hospital Building

The tender brief was challenging in many ways: preparing proposals for a modern hospital with optimal functionality, yet at the same time addressing a context in which geometry and materiality are based in an existing district, a listed hospital building with 100-year history and, in addition, a narrow piece of land.

The project interprets and challenges the district plan with a main strategy, with the creation of three open spaces in the axial development, from which curved building developments emanate. A powerful main strategy with finely designed facades and interesting sequences of spaces, with a symbiosis between the landscape and the building structure.
