冰山，是耸立在北欧奥斯陆的11峰白楼，它刺破了没有新意的天际线，在陆地与海洋间展示自己的雄姿，为奥胡斯海滨提供了208套公寓单元，成为港口改
建开发中，活力新社区中的一个重要环节。
The Iceberg’s sharply drawn silhouette with its 11 white peaks is a significant addition to the skyline of Aarhus – both from the landward and the seaward
side. The project is located at a prime location on the outmost harbour front in Aarhus’ new quarter Aarhus East and consists of 208 apartments. Like
many other worn-out industrial harbour areas, the former container port of Aarhus is being transformed into a vibrant new neighbourhood with a variety
of functions – housings, educational institutions, offices, retail, sports and leisure. The Iceberg is among the first completed projects in an area that in the future will be home to 7.000 inhabitants and provide 12.000 workplaces. Its total
site area of 800.000 m2 makes it one of Europe’s largest harbour front city developments.

Rational considerations – extraordinary architecture The team’s ambition and starting point for the building’s characteristic design was neither to create an iconic form nor to make a building that looks like an
iceberg. Instead, the project originates from very rational considerations and classic architectural virtues. The inspiration for the Iceberg originated
primarily from the site’s extraordinary location with spectacular views over the Aarhus Bay. Thus, the seemingly simple task was to maximize views and
sunlight conditions for every single apartment and at the same time respect the inland urban context. By turning well-known architectural elements on upside down and combining them in different ways this rational basic considerations result in an
extraordinary and forward-thinking residential complex. In order to obtain these positive features throughout the entire complex the design team had to challenge the restraints imposed by the district plan,
including the high building density required and the relatively low permissible building height. Instead of following the master plan, which was dominated by traditional closed building blocks with central court yards, the Iceberg is laid out as four
L-shaped wings, where the spaces in between open towards the water. In order to obtain optimal daylight conditions and views over the bay, these
angled building volumes are cut up by jagged lines. By remaining well below the height limit at many points while exceeding it at others the architects
succeeded in keeping the projects average height within the permissible limits. The roofs rise and fall into peaks and valleys, which create visual passages across the individual volumes - like floating icebergs that constantly refract
one’s gaze. Thus, even the back wing’s residents can enjoy the view and generous natural lighting. The principle of dividing each building into tops and
valleys contributes to adapt the scale of the building volumes to both the surroundings and the interior spaces. Instead of
being considered as a block turning inwards the complex is experienced as an open, extrovert structure, creating more architectural appeal. In selected areas the structure of the building is pressed down towards street level to create a harbour oriented character and scale, which will interact
with the future sea front promenade and public spaces. In other areas the structure is pulled upwards to create more urban qualities, which are oriented
towards the city and the Iceberg’s landward neighbours. City and harbour meet in one common idiom. 蓝色玻璃栏板的阳台跳跃在建筑表面。建筑的形体变化剧烈，因此“山顶”上的户型是双层的，顶层稍小的空间用做阁楼。208套公寓的面积在55---227平方

Social diversity The varying and spectacular forms that derive from this simple algorithm resulted in a spatial complexity, which made it possible to fit a varied range of
ifferent dwelling types within the complex – the outer geometry changes upwards through the building and consequently also from one apartment to the
next, ranging from 55 to 227 m2 including two-storey ‘town houses’ and affordable smaller flats as well as exclusive penthouses in the peaks. The variety of residences with different balconies, shapes and orientations as well as the combination of owner-occupied and rented flats aim at creating
socially diverse urban surroundings that form a lively local community: the building complex becomes a neighbourhood instead of a mere series of
housing blocks.
