A study in white



Many of the residences in Tuborg Harbour is kept in white and squares, and most are with a view over Øresund, the strait separating Denmark from Sweden. Although not finished yet, the area certainly is shaping up.



One of the buildings under construction looks like an office building though I'm not sure it is. This one is kept in a light aqua marine with wave shaped panels on the side.

Tomorrows building is a big one that can be seen for miles around.

  3. First two shots are of beautiful 'traditional' buildings in a excellent location.
    The last two images show us something more intriguing, for the shape and the colour. I hope it will be an office building...

  6. One thing for sure...you Danes are not afraid to experiment...these are such striking buildings, all in their own way, and I think the white looks good in that watery environment.

    Again, excellent photography, Chris!

  9. Not wavy enough I think :). About the strait, Christopher, you mean it is the canal in your first photo? If yes, does it mean you were in Sweden when these photo were taken?

  10. @Henny: No, the canal you can see is part of the harbour. The strait of Øresund (the Sound) is on the other side of the white buildings and is about 20km wide at this point, so I didn't leave Denmark this time. Though that'll change in tomorrows post:-)
