LEGO House by BIG exterior

It was almost just too obvious to pick Bjarke Ingels to design the LEGO House in Billund. And likewise, he just had to design it like an upscaled LEGO set.

Mærsk tårnet Maersk Tower C F Møller Panum streetview facade

Maersk Tower by C. F. Møller Architects an impressive achievement. The architectural concept is strong and consistent, but not overly so. The spatial layout is varied and with a delicate balance between drama and restrain. A truly Danish quality of architecture. And it features a unique bike fly-over! ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■

Stephen: This tour was exceptional, a highlight of our short trip to Copenhagen. It helped us break out of the most walkable area of the city and see more parts to explore. Asser catered the tour perfectly to our group. I personally did not know much about Danish architecture or even Denmark, and I left the tour impressed and with some insights on what it's like to live or study in Copenhagen. He also answered questions we had about the rest of our trip, being one of the few locals we spent an extended amount of time with and felt comfortable asking. 100% recommend booking this! ✩✩✩✩✩
