Grønningen-Bispeparken wins Årets Arne 2025

We are incredibly proud and delighted to share that our Grønningen-Bispeparken has won Årets Arne 2025 – the most prestigious architecture award given by the Danish Architecture Association (Arkitektforeningen) in Copenhagen.

Årets Arne is the most prestigious architecture award given by the Danish Architecture Association in Copenhagen.

“With Grønningen-Bispeparken, we have created our vision of a forward-looking public space that combines nature, civic democracy, climate adaptation, biodiversity, art, and social cohesion in entirely new ways. We hope that the selection of this project will inspire the architecture industry to be even more committed to social and biodiverse solutions and to have the courage to push our clients to create nature-based places for life in our cities – all life.”

— Bjørn Ginman, Senior Lead Designer
Grønningen-Bispeparken is not a romantic promenade park but a transformative paradigm shift in urban development, where form follows nature and architecture’s foremost task is to create spaces for life – all life.

Congratulations to our bold client Københavns Kommune, our wonderful collaborators NIRAS, Kerstin Bergendal, Efterland, and Ebbe Dalsgaard A/S, and first and foremost to all the residents we have worked with for 5+ years in creating a true neigbourhood Park with room and space for all.
