Israeli Square in Copenhagen by COBE architects
In Copenhagen, they know how to create public spaces. Whether over water, on the quays, or traditionally between houses. The Bjarke Ingels Studio demonstrated in the project Superkilen that a valuable place for people to meet can arise even on a rubble site and with a small budget.
The freshly completed Israeli Square (Israels Plads) from the Copenhagen office COBE is located on the site of walls demolished in the second half of the 19th century. The spacious area is bordered on the north side by the busy Nørreport train station, and the southern part of the square smoothly transitions into Ørsted Park. An architectural competition was held in 2008 for the design of the southern part of the square, which was won by the local office COBE, which described its design as a “carpet” that naturally integrates the park into the square. In addition to natural elements (mature trees and flowing water), the square is complemented by a round sports facility, a skatepark, and two stepped tribunes located in opposite corners of the square.
