    hello all,

    I really like the way that something very ugly (I never saw an appealing industrial chimney) was dressed up with an interesting facade and turned into something useful. the only thing i wonder about is, whether the snow, if there is any, would last on the building-roof. They probably had to pack a lot of insulation above the concrete or steel structure supporting that slope. To my knowledge, this would also be the highest point in Copenhagen. Cool!

    Best regards

    Phil

    Do NOT miss that turn.

    There is a TV ad, right now, in France showing this building. For a car if I remember well.

    I’m imagining someone leaving work for the day. Instead of going out through the front door past reception they go up to the roof with all the gear on and ski right down to their car.
