SLA has prepared the building plan and the landscaping for the housing area Tuborg Sundpark. Here the siting of the buildings near the sea has played a very special part. The development forms an island surrounded by water. In this way all are ensured easy access to the water and views to the attractions of the area. The white buildings are placed in a winding, dynamically shaped landscape. Thus a contrast is seen between the clean geometric shapes of the houses and the meandering landform.

 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

The landscape is enclosed by winding walls of slate, that with their rough-cut stones give the external space a special textural character. In the evening the atmosphere in Tuborg Sundpark is special. Street lamps with fixtures designed individually for each housing areas light up the houses and the landscape in a friendly and evocative way. Natural stone and different grasses help to create a calm, beach-like environment that can be enjoyed from inside as well as outside.
