The New York Times features the Icefjord Centre: "...designed to cultivate respect for the beauty, importance and vulnerability of ice.".

Hundreds of trees, wild urban nature, and new public meeting spaces are key elements in a new IKEA Copenhagen city store. Located near the main train station, the historic Meatpacking district, and the inner-city harbor, the store is placed in an extremely busy area of the city with few green spaces offering a break from the commotion.

In the infinite Arctic landscape. Surrounded by unforgiving wind, snow, and ice. On the edge of the UNESCO-protected Greenlandic wilderness. Here levitates the Icefjord Centre slightly over the magnificent, rugged terrain.

The Saaleck Workshops near Naumburg in Germany holds a history that must not be ignored nor forgotten. Built by the German architect, anti-Semite and racial ideologist Paul Schultze-Naumburg at the beginning of the Twentieth Century and used by the Nazi elite as a think tank of totalitarian and racists thoughts, it is considered an 'uncomfortable monument'.

The strive for sustainability requires that we develop our practice as architects. We must substantiate our knowledge about conditions, climate and materials. We need to be curious when it comes to both questioning existing methods and exploring new opportunities in an ever changing and increasingly complex world.

The Dutch seaside village of Lauwersoog is a popular place for fishermen casting their nets and visitors venturing into the UNESCO protected coastal wetlands.

On the rough, black tarmac between the massive military compounds on the abandoned Værløse Air Base there is seldom a moment of dullness. One day you might see a bright yellow fur coat catwalk towards a deserted control tower. The next day three wailing police cars abruptly brake in the middle of an agitated crowd in front of a giant yellow bricked building.

It is now more than a year ago we gathered for the topping-out ceremony in Ilulissat, Greenland. Winter, spring and summer have past, temperatures are again dropping far below zero and soon almost all you will hear is the howling from the Greenland Dogs through the silence of the snowy terrain.
