The Seahorse Apartments / Cubo Arkitekter

In a former industrial area with freight train terminals, old warehouses, and a railyard, a new cultural city district has seen the light. It has been framed as Aarhus K – ‘K’ for ‘Kultur’ (culture) - a diverse urban area, where the brand-new Aarhus School of Architecture merges with workshops, cafés, and a variety of new and transformed buildings. Nearby Ringgården forms a chain of volumes that varies and adapts vertically and horizontally along with the narrow building plot towards the intersection between Aarhus K and the lakes and green meadows west of Aarhus.
