Lyngby Town Hall / ERIK arkitekter

The modernist building has been fully renovated and retains many of its original qualities. ERIK arkitekter has restored the town hall based on its key architectural ideas while futureproofing it with contemporary workspaces. Lyngby Town Hall, designed by the now passed-away architects Hans Erling Langkilde and Ib Martin Jensen, joins the ranks of Scandinavian functionalist town halls from the mid-20th century — think, for instance, of Aarhus City Hall by Arne Jacobsen and Erik Møller or Gunnar Asplund's Gothenburg Town Hall. The building was originally inaugurated in 1941.
