Denmark's 6 buildings are concentrated in Copenhagen, where Contemporary architecture has reshaped the waterfront and inner city. Bjarke Ingels' audacious experiments — from the ski-slope power plant to a hedonistic housing block — sit alongside Studio Olafur Eliasson's headquarters and COBE Architects' adaptive reuse of industrial silos. Copenhagen demonstrates how a single city can become a laboratory for architecture that is both socially ambitious and formally inventive.
