What is the value of designing for communities and local identity?   Creating strong local communities and urban identity is crucial for promoting social value. Our team at Democratic Design is dedicated to understanding and enhancing the social dynamics that make our cities more vibrant and inclusive. When we design with a focus on local communities, we create value for developers, individuals and the society we are all a part of. It's about promoting well-being, strengthening social relations, and creating safe environments.   The examples shown are derived from research, case studies, and evaluations conducted in Denmark and abroad. We invite you to learn more about Democratic Design here: https://lnkd.in/gz3wYmH3 or contact Democratic Design for more information and additional examples of how we are creating social value through design.   Cecilie Marie Busk, Katarina Buhl, Josefine Gerdes A big thank you to our contributors who have helped us refine and qualify these insights: Toke Panduro, Ditte Bendix Lanng, Anja Jørgensen, Annika Agger, Stig Ammitzbøll Jørgensen, Mia Helvig Manghezi, Anne Mette Boye   #cfmollerarchitects #100yearsofcfmollerarchitects #improvelifeforpeopleandplanet #architecture #democraticdesign #cocreation #socialsustainability

Celebrating 100 Years of C.F. Møller Architects 🎉 As part of our 2024 anniversary, we´re taking a look back at our modern heritage and showcasing some of our projects from the past. This week’s spotlight is on Danmarks Radio, a TV and Radio broadcasting centre built over several periods from the mid-seventies onwards. Designed by C.F. Møller, the complex has areas for radio, offices, technical television, and workshops, organized along a north-south axis. It features a network of internal streets, plazas, and courtyards with art installations and gardens. Typically for its time, the construction is in robust reinforced concrete, and is situated on a plateau surrounded by distinctive cobblestone-lined ramparts. Over the years, the building has managed to keep up with the massive technological developments in radio and television production by refurbishing almost all areas, partly brought about by technological changes and by the internal organization. A 2011 renovation by C.F. Møller further modernized the space to reflect DR’s openness and professionalism. 📷: Torben Eskerod, Poul Nyholm #cfmollerarchitects #improvelifeforpeopleandplanet #100yearanniversary #100yearsofcfmollerarchitects #architecture #celebration #modernheritage #denmark #norway #sweden #germany #aarhus #copenhagen #oslo #malmö #stockholm #berlin

Interior details in Landsbankinn HQ in Reykjavík reflect the surrounding natural landscapes of Iceland, blurring the boundaries between outside and inside. The rugged texture and earthy hues of volcanic basalt stone create a sense of stability and authenticity and infuse the interior spaces with a raw, elemental beauty. Warm timber finishes evoke the natural forests of Iceland, adding warmth and comfort to the environment. All elements of the interior are visually striking, as well as functional, durable, and sustainable, aligning with the bank's commitment to responsible design and care for the environment.

Competition Win for Fælledby School in Copenhagen's First Timber-Based District. Fælledby School will be a beacon for sustainable education and community integration in Copenhagen. The winning design prioritizes nature, serving as both a school and a communal hub for students, staff, athletes, and residents. Located at the intersection of Amager Fælled and Ørestad, the school bridges urban life and nature through its architecture. Timber serves as the primary structural element, reflecting Copenhagen's vision for a timber-based district and promoting responsible resource use. The school's design fosters active, project-based learning. Flexible and transparent spaces allow for student work displays, encouraging collaboration and a culture of visibility. Workshop areas and views to the outdoors will support a creative and exploratory educational experience. "We are delighted to have won the task of creating Fælledby School, which aims to add value for both children and local residents. We are proud to be entrusted with this significant project and look forward to developing the new school in collaboration with the Municipality of Copenhagen and the rest of the team," says Thue Hasløv, partner, architect, and head of C.F.

Celebrating 100 Years of C.F. Møller Architects🎂🍾🎉 As part of our 2024 anniversary, we want to take a look back at our modern heritage and showcase some of our projects from the past: This week’s spotlight is on the Greenhouse of the Botanical Institute from year 1970 which was built for Botany teaching at the University of Aarhus. With its organic, sinuous form like that of an unwound snail, the exterior of the Greenhouse in the Botanic Garden was built to reflect its interior. The shape of the Greenhouse was determined by the site's rolling terrain, formed by the remains of a moraine gully that ran from its highest point northwest of Aarhus down to the sea. The project has since undergone a comprehensive restoration and extension in 2009. Find photos of both the original and the restored and extended greenhouse on our website: https://lnkd.in/ehUGqNuS #cfmollerarchitects #improvelifeforpeopleandplanet #celebrating #100yearanniversary #100yearsofcfmollerarchitects #architecture #celebration #modernheritage #denmark #norway #sweden #germany #aarhus #copenhagen #oslo #malmö #stockholm #berlin

Tag der Architektur- Berlin Since 2001, Tag der Architektur has been celebrated on the last weekend of June. The event in Germany features nationwide architectural tours and open offices led by chamber members. The tours provide visitors with a chance to explore current building culture, unique architectural experiences, and engage in dialogue with professionals. In this context we were excited to offer several tours on Saturday for a pre-opening glimpse of Berlin Hyp's new headquarters, set to open in late 2024. The new headquarter for Berlin Hyp is designed to support the banks sustainable vision, while at the same time contributing to the transition and urban development of the surrounding area and therefore aligns perfectly with this years theme  "Simply (re)build," where the main focus was set on the connection between environment, materials, people, and space. Thank you to Architektenkammer Berlin for organizing another successful event and to everyone who came to see what we are working on. 👀 https://lnkd.in/ed7Rt9dv #cfmollerarchitects #improvelifeforpeopleandplanet #architektenkammerberlin #berlinhyp #headquarters #berlin
