With a focus on community and concentrated city living, Nordø (North Island) in Copenhagen’s developing Nordhavn district will be a symbiotic space that puts shared resources first. Our designs for this neighborhood will enable residents to take advantage of the island’s natural environment, including water clean enough for fishing and swimming. Maintaining a close connection to this urban environment and retail strategy, while containing its own distinct personality, Nordø is separated from the rest of the neighborhood by a small canal.
