This book reveals Copenhagen's quality of life using the example of
built spaces. It leads its readers on a tour of exploration, visiting
exciting architecture projects and surprising districts between Ørestadt
and Nordhavn. A total of over 25 exceptional buildings, urban squares
and public spaces created in the past 10 years are presented. Documented
with brilliant photos, general plans and texts, these projects paint an
image of a brave generation of architects and planners who are not
afraid to employ novel solutions. On display are daring typologies such
as Amager Bakke, a ski slope on a waste incineration plant by BIG,
spectacular iconic buildings, including the Royal Danish Aquarium by 3XN
or popular public spaces for the urban community.
