Like a snake with its head held high, Bispebjerg Bakke winds its way through the Northwest neighbourhood of Copenhagen – on a natural site that combines rural peacefulness and the vibrant pulse of the city. This apartment complex in the Bispebjerg district of Copenhagen, Denmark, was designed by leading Danish sculptor Bjørn Nørgaard. The idea of building Bispebjerg Bakke was conceived in 1997. The idea was to demonstrate that good buildings, in terms of design, craftsmanship and materials, can compete with todays industrialized construction industry.
