VM Mountain #2

The VM Mountain (designed by BIG) in Copenhagen is nearing its completion.
The Mountain has two functions: housing and parking. There are 80 housing units ranging from 80 to 150 square metres in size. All the units have large roof terraces that sprawl down the "mountain" like small gardens.
There's room for 650 cars inside the Mountain.
The "mountain" is named VM because it's located immediately next to another wellknown building from "BIG (PLOT), the VM Building.

The dragons are coming !

Three lampposts designed by dutch architect Adriaan Geuze (west 8). The lampposts are situated at "Amerika Plads" in Copenhagen.
The design of the lampposts is inspired by an old "dragon" lamp designed by danish architect Vilhelm Dahlerup (1837-1907).
Adriaan Geuze is also the architect responsible for the masterplan of the harbour area around "Amerika Plads".
