Chimney House got its name with reference to the site’s unique chimney building, that is worthy of preservation, and built in 1908 by city architect in Copenhagen Hans Wright. Part of the project has been to transform the chimney building, and to give it a new life by adding new functions. At the same time, a new, modern point house has been built comprising a total of 11 large apartments.
In the design of Chimney House the vision has been to create an ambitious and unique quality building with a thorough focus on Danish design – a building, which with its architecture contributes to a high quality of life for the residents. In example by focusing on views and attractive outdoor areas.
The point house draws its architectural inspiration from the area’s many brick houses, and has a simple and modern idiom with bright bricks, large window sections and wooden details. The square building is visually divided by vertical bands in raw concrete and large, enclosed balconies. All apartments in Chimney House are designed with spacious, bright areas and from all apartment the residents have a three-sided view through the large windows – in example over Øresund and the surrounding residential neighborhood. Each apartment has a large covered terrace.
