SUPERKILEN
Program: Urban Park, Landscaping
Location: Copenhagen, Denmark
Size: 355 K ft2
Status: Completed
Superkilen is a half a mile long urban space wedging through one of the most ethnically diverse and socially challenged neighborhoods in Denmark. It has one overarching idea that it is conceived as a giant exhibition of urban best practice – a sort of collection of global found objects that come from 60 different nationalities of the people inhabiting the area surrounding it. Ranging from exercise gear from muscle beach LA to sewage drains from Israel, palm trees from China and neon signs from Qatar and Russia.
More details of the project can be found on BIG's website.
