Creating a reference to the former industrial environment was the inspiration for Lundgaard & Tranberg Architects when designing the façade of the Charlottehaven The Tower in the Copenhagen district of Østerbro.

The building is 16 storeys and 54m high, and is clad with rectangular cassettes of varying depth and length made of bright rolled titanium zinc, which vary in depth and length. A total area of around 3,000m² was designed with the three-dimensional cassettes, processing around 45 tonnes of titanium zinc.

Due to the natural weathering of the material the lively design underlines the dynamic appearance of the tower.
