We designed, developed and produced Sampension's interior water wall for 3XN. The water wall improves the indoor climate in the building by cleaning the air and controlling the humidity. Furthermore, the sound of calm running water creates a relaxing audio ambiance. Photo credit: 3XN, Arkitekternes Pensionskasseand and Art Andersen & Copenhagen....

When Tækker Group decided to restore Pakhus 13, one of only two remaining historical buildings in Aarhus Habour, they asked us to develop and produce a drive system for the external sliding shutters and motorized doors for the interior office space. The drive system is based on concealed chains, and the motorized doors are pivot-hinged and piezo-electrically operated....

We developed and produced textile ceiling panels, a sliding door and textile wall panels for the news headquarters in DR Byen. The large textile ceiling panels for DR Byen's front desk offer a discreet, semi-transparent fabric ceiling system with large, continuous textile surfaces with good acoustic properties. The textile panels can be easily handled and moved when required, either for a change in setup or maintenance. Furthermore, the design allows for easy access to the technical installations. The heart of the newsroom in DR Byen is the cylinder-shaped TV news studio designed by Dissing + Weitling Architects. We developed the 15-meter long sliding door in curved glass for the TV news studio. The sliding door is motorized and equipped with a pneumatically operated sound damping system, developed specifically for this project. The TV news studio's design follows a circular layout. To optimize the acoustics, we developed 113 textile wall panels that cover the...

Copenhagen Towers is a LEED Platinum standard designed ensemble featuring a 22-story office tower and a low-rise building joined together by a stunning green atrium. We helped architects Foster + Partners take the curved wooden profiles for the steel structure of the atrium roof from concept to creation. The initial design concept was ambitious. The curved wooden profiles float in mid-air below the roof, where they help sculpt the daylight and improve the acoustics of the atrium. To reduce the complexity and cost of production and construction, we developed a unique mounting bracket system for the lamellas that make up the curved wooden profiles. Because the dimensions of the lamellas vary significantly across each profile, we the mounting bracket system was designed so it could adapt to each individual lamella. For proof of concept, we build a full-scale model, that allowed us to first test and then demonstrate how the mounting brackets worked as an easy click-on system...
