Description

It is a new residential development that is built atop the Kronen shopping center.
It begins at a height of 12 meters but has a network of open spaces on the rooftop.
It is also car-free.
The project is part of the Copenhagen Municipality's strategy for densifying areas near transit stations. Tagkronen is located next to the Vanlose station.
The rooftop is accessible to the various housing types seen in the project.
The buildings are in the form of townhouses made from prefabricated wood modules. This is a CO2-friendly construction technique.
Despite being located on the rooftop, it features a lot of greenery such that every home is located close to a green landscape.
It is conceptualized as a “wooden crown” to the shopping center below.
