Description

    • The most recently completed and largest of Ingels’s Copenhagen residential projects — the $133 million 8 House, which includes 476 apartments and more than 100,000 square feet of commercial space and shared facilities. Its aim was to build a “three-dimensional community even though the building is in the middle of nowhere,” says Ingels. The “nowhere” is about 7 miles from the city center at the southern tip of Ørestad, a still somewhat barren district rising along a branch of Copenhagen’s new metro line. Ingels’s two earlier residential projects are located not far away in the same developing quarter.
