Appreciation towards Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects for providing the following description:

The extension to Nykredit consists of a new building – the Crystal – sited northwest of the existing Nykredit premises. Freestanding on the site, it reads as a transparent, geometrical, glazed form which, resting only on a single point and a single line, floats as a visually light, crystalline structure above the plaza.

In terms of both form and scale, the building is intermediate between the city and the harbour, and harmonizes with neighbouring buildings. On the southern side it rises with reference to the Elefanthuset’s gable apex and creates space for the main entrance. From the corner of Puggardsgade and Hambrosgade there is passage under the building and a clear view out towards Nykredit’s head office building, called the Glass Cube, and the harbour. The interior of the building is constrained by the demands of functionality, flexibility and efficiency. The typical floor plan is disposed in a Z-shape around two atria, which ensures that all workstations are well lit and enjoy a view. The disposition of the plan allows the accommodation of open plan, separate offices or meeting rooms. The building is primarily supported by a rhombic construction system placed immediately inside the façade. The system functions both as an architectural element while also allowing the building to dispense with pillars.

The building’s multi-faceted glass façade reflects both daylight and the immediate surroundings, but the double-glazing also features an integrated sun screen that allows the building to adapt to changing light conditions. In addition, the outer glazing system includes a subtle silk print design that both mitigates solar ingress and will also enliven the ambience of the harbour area.

The piazza features a large water pool which reflects the sun and the clouds moving across the sky. The Crystal and the Cloud are designed to interact with their surroundings, offering a subtle connection between the formal architecture of the Glyptotek Museum of Ancient and Modern Art, and the waterfront area which forms the setting for the new building.

 

Sustainability

Energy

The design team has brought a holistic approach to the environmental strategy underlying the project. The scheme manages to combine a completely transparent office building with an exceptionally low energy-consumption at 70 kWh per square metre, which means that the building consumes 25 percent less energy than the existing energy legislation. The roof is covered with highly efficient photovoltaic panels generating 80,000 kWh per year. In addition, the triple-layered inner glass façade provides extremely effective thermal insulation, with a U-value of only 0.7 Wh per square metre.

Water
Rainwater run-off is collected to be used as grey water for toilet facilities throughout the building, while sea water provides additional cooling for the building.

Ventilation

The scheme operates a night-time cooling strategy where natural ventilation is introduced through the double façade and extracted through the atrium skylights, maintaining optimum internal temperatures.

Context
The building floats above the plaza resting only on a single point and a single line, and it is carefully harmonised with the neighbouring buildings. The additional public space at ground level creates a dynamic public realm.

Daylight
The highly transparent building with a subtle silk-printed design on the outer glass façade functioning as a sunscreen creates a harmonious and versatile working environment for all employees.

Noise
The building’s insulated façade prevents noise interference from the busy road outside.

Nykredit新总部大楼位于原总部大楼的西北方向。像一个落在广场之上的独立，透明，几何，轻盈的“水晶体”。建筑位于城市和海港之间，比邻harmonises楼。南侧被抬高形成主入口，内部功能组织灵活有效。“Z”字形布局创造了两个巨大的中庭，确保所有工作空间明亮并具有良好的视野。内部有开放的办公区，也有独立办公室和会议室。支撑菱形玻璃幕墙的坚固钢构架不光是建筑外形元素，也是结构，减少了内部柱网。

各个方向的玻璃幕墙反映着日光和周围的环境，其中包换一个一体化的遮阳网，以适应不断变化的日照条件。外玻璃面上有着微妙的丝网印刷，可降低日照，还形成活泼的氛围。广场的大水池反映着天上划过的太阳和飘动的云层。“水晶体”为外界互动，并与周围建筑及海港区形成微妙的关联。

 

可持续发展

能源
整体考虑可持续型发展战略，比一般建筑耗能减少了25%。这个全透明的办公楼屋顶覆盖了80000万的太阳能光伏电池，三层玻璃幕墙提供了有效的保温。
水
收集雨水冲厕，利用海水进行冷却。
通风
夜间采用自然通风。通过双层表皮以及中庭天窗保持室内最佳温度。
关联
建筑轻轻落在广场上，与周围建筑保持协调，同时创造出额外的地面空间，创造出一个诱惑力的公共领域。
日光
精心设计的丝网印刷让这个高透明度的建筑有一层防晒装，创建了一个顾及所有人的和谐灵活空间。
噪音
