Summary

A city hall for everyone

The goal was to design a transparent, multifunctional town hall that serves as both a productive workplace and a vibrant public space. Beyond administrative functions, Hjortespring City Hall fosters democratic engagement, community events, and sustainability, ensuring it remains a welcoming "City House" 24/7.

Building connection and adaptability

The design reflects the need for spaces that evolve with the community. By blending public access, flexible interiors, and sustainability features, the town hall becomes a meeting point for diverse groups and activities. Its integration into the surrounding park enhances its role as a natural, inclusive gathering space.

A future-ready civic landmark

At the heart of the building is a bright atrium that anchors the space with natural light and visual connections. Work zones are shielded for focus while public areas are accessible beyond office hours, allowing the town hall to transform for various uses. Flexible layouts and movable furnishings ensure adaptability for future needs, while the iconic council chamber exemplifies openness with glass walls and easy access to green outdoor spaces.

Sustainable and inclusive by design

Embraced by the lush park, the building harmonises with its surroundings through green roofs, energy-efficient systems, and biodiversity-enhancing landscaping. With flexible workstations, climate-responsive materials, and community-centric spaces, Hjortespring City Hall sets a benchmark for sustainable and resilient civic architecture.
