ARKITEKT: BJARKE INGELS GROUP OG PLOT. 2008.

VM-bjerget har navn efter husene ved siden af. Bjerget består af lejligheder på toppen af et parkeringsbjerg i flere etager.

Hver lejlighed har sin egen have uden indkik fra de andre haver (men fra det nærliggende byggeri).

Parkeringsbjerget er indrammet af verdens største fotografi (Mount Everest). Man parkerer i et etageanlæg og går direkte til lejligheden.

Hver parkeringsafdeling og -etage har sin egen farve, så man kan finde sin lejlighed. Der er et trappeanlæg, så man kan spadsere hele vejen op og ned ad bjerget (langs fotografiets overkant)

The VM-Mountain is named after the houses next to it. The mountain consists of apartments on top of a parking mountain in several floors.

Each apartment has its own garden without exposure to maintain from the other gardens (but from the nearby construction).

The parking area framed by the world's largest photograph (Mount Everest). Park in a floor system and goe directly to the apartment.

Each parking area and -floor has its own color, so one can find his apartment. There is a staircase installation, so you can walk all the way up and down the mountain (along the upper edge of the photograph).
