Reimagining Public Spaces

Imagine a building that doesn’t just do one thing—it does everything! Welcome to Copenhill, a waste-to-energy plant in Copenhagen, Denmark, that’s more than just a factory. This futuristic facility turns trash into energy, powering homes and businesses in an eco-friendly way. But Copenhill isn’t just about energy—it’s also a place for fun! You can ski down its sloped roof, climb its massive wall, or hike along its trails, all while overlooking one of the greenest cities in the world.

Copenhill proves that buildings can serve more than one purpose. By combining work and play, it inspires cities to think creatively about their spaces. What if schools could do the same? Imagine transforming your school, library, post office, or other public space into a place that’s as cool as Copenhill!
