Tip of Nordø . Copenhagen

Cobe . Tredje Natur . Vilhelm Lauritzen Architects

Like a lighthouse marking the first neighbourhood to be completed in Copenhagen’s Nordhavn district, the Tip of Nordø (The Tip) stands out. A 25,000-m² multi-user office building and public space that serves as a visible entrance to Copenhagen Harbour.

The overall vision for the Tip is to create an office building that signals openness, robustness and dynamism while also aiming to be an entirely new meeting place for all residents of Copenhagen. A destination where urban life can unfold throughout the year.

Characterized by an iconic round shape, the building enters into a symbiotic relationship with the elements, as prefabricated facade modules angle to filter daylight, the atrium works as a giant greenhouse, and water is filtered and circulated locally.
