Description

The Copenhagen Business School is also known as "The Wedge." The project consists of a master plan for the Business School campus and a new faculty building. The building's name and form are derived from the angled geometry of the site. "The building consists of a four-story prismatic volume resting on a sculpted earth base integrated into the surrounding landscape. An irregular oval shaped atrium extends the full height of the interior, accessing all of the building's functions and providing the spatial focus of the project. Full storey screens of wood, matte glass, and copper characterize the facades. The screens rotate in response to sun, weather, and user, giving a constantly varying facade expression.
