8 House, Mixed-use building in Ørestad, Denmark

The 8 House spans 61,000 square meters and features an eight-shaped structure that combines residential units, offices, and retail spaces across horizontal layers.

Constructed in 2010 by Bjarke Ingels Group, the development stands as Denmark's largest private building project, introducing new concepts of urban living.

The structure contains 476 residences of varying sizes, from apartments to penthouses, creating a vertical neighborhood that supports different household configurations.

Residents can access their homes through an extensive network of walkways and bicycle paths that extend from ground level to the tenth floor.

Two interior courtyards form within the building's bow shape, while 1,700 square meters of green roofs connect visually with the surrounding landscape.
