Wood Creates a Pleasant Atmosphere
The primary task of the project is to function as a well-run and attractive workplace for current and future employees. The team behind the new headquarters has focused on the significant potential of designing a modern and efficient office building based on values such as openness, accessibility, and innovation.
In the project, efforts have been made to continue and adapt the atmosphere experienced in the existing office, which possesses numerous evident qualities such as transparency, light, clarity, and spaciousness. In the new headquarters, wooden floors and timber elements will contribute to creating a pleasant atmosphere, while the wooden columns of the building will add a warm and tactile character to all spaces.
"We are proud and happy that Energinet has chosen our solution," says Lasse Ebler, senior tender manager in NCC's building unit in the West under Building Nordics. "We have delivered a well-thought-out and thoroughly elaborated proposal together with C.F. Møller and Artelia – incidentally, the same team with whom we collaborate on a large timber office building in Odense for the Building Agency."
Jakob Mariager, division manager at Artelia, is also excited about a new ambitious project with the same team, which comes directly from a successful collaboration in Odense:
"Energinet naturally wants a passive building with low energy consumption but also has significant ambitions for the indoor climate and working environment. It is always exciting to reconcile these two important considerations. Especially because we know the significant impact buildings have on our health and well-being. In the bidding phase, the team has had a valuable integrated design process, where we have together found effective solutions that address indoor climate, energy, and daylight. We look forward to continuing that work."
