BIG's Amager Bakke power station photographed by Hufton + Crow
Architecture photography studio Hufton + Crow has captured the chimney of Amager Bakke, a power station covered by a ski slope designed by BIG, rising from the mist.
The Danish architecture firm completed the pioneering waste-to-energy power plant for Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2019.
Hufton + Crow captured the power plant shrouded in mist
Designed in collaboration with SLA Architects, the energy station is topped by the dry ski slope of the Copenhill mountain activity centre.
Hufton + Crow shot the 124-metre-high chimney and chequered aluminium facade gleaming in the sunrise using a drone.
A ski slope sits on top of the power plant
These new photos show the landscaping around the winding ski slope has bedded in, so the whole sloping side of the power station looks like a bright green hillock. Starting at a height of 90 metres, the 400-metre long slope serviced by a lift makes a 180-degree turn as it twists down to ground level.
The dry ski slope is surrounded by greenery
Trees planted on the slope act as windbreaks and shade for hikers, who can follow walking trails up the slope.
Along with outdoor pursuits, the plan is for the green roof to add biodiversity to the industrial area it sits in by attracting bees and butterflies. Visitors will be encouraged to contribute by planting seed bombs.
A climbing wall is built up one side of the power station
Part of the activity centre features a climbing wall up one of the power station's vertical faces.
