The world has changed rapidly in the last few decades, with profound changes in the ways we use land to support a growing, and increasingly affluent and urban population. As we head towards a global population of more than 9 billion people, we have entered a critical decision space, a window of opportunity over the next few decades within which it is still possible to avert a move beyond the plan-et’s sustainability limit. Conceptual representation of the critical decision space resulting from cumula-tive global human impacts (GLP 2005, Science Plan and Implementation Strategy). The successful transition towards a global society that can live within the planet’s boundaries is widely seen as the greatest challenge humanity has ever faced. More people will require more space and more re-sources, which will have to be provided by a finite land surface facing added pressures from our changing climate. Land use change is inevitable and managing this change sustainably will become a major challenge. There are inherent uncertainties in this process, and responsibility will have to be shared by governments, the private sector and individual citizens. A major first step towards achieving the future we want is to understand better what type of world we would like to live in. Visions of the future stimulate dialogue, help build a consensus on shared priorities, and support planning by provid-ing long-term targets. Land use is determined by the complex interface between the biophysical envi-ronment, and human activity shaped by historical and current cultural and socio-economic processes. Many groups may have contrasting interests in the land, and any change can be contentious. Under-standing these different viewpoints and finding common ground will therefore have to be the first step towards managing sustainable land use change.

Woensdagmiddag

Christiania is een alternatieve wijk in Kopenhagen, die ontstond na-dat hippies, daklozen, alternatieven en autonomen militai-re kazernes bezetten en de ’vrijstaat Christiania' uitriepen. Sindsdien is het uitgegroeid tot een buurt waar alternatie-velingen zich thuis voelen, en die volgens de bewoners een toonbeeld is van de Deense progressiviteit en tole-rantie. Het stadsbestuur probeert al jaren de krakers te verwijderen, om op het terrein woningen te bouwen. Tot nu toe zonder succes. In Christiania is geen gemotoriseerd verkeer en de wijk heeft zijn eigen regels. Zo worden er openlijk softdrugs gebruikt en verkocht. Harddrugs zijn verboden. Er heeft zich een complete subcultuur ontwikkeld in deze wijk. U vindt er muurschilderingen, boetiekjes met alternatieve kleding, kunstateliers en her en der staan beeldhouwwerken. De bewoners hebben ook diverse zaken geopend, variërend van een groentewinkel, een bakker en restaurants tot tattooshops en winkels waar sieraden worden gemaakt en verkocht. Verder zijn er vaak openluchtvoorstellingen en muziekuitvoe-ringen.

De wijk noemt zichzelf een ‘vrijstad’, maar zo heel vrij is het er ook weer niet. Bijna overal is het ver-boden om foto's te nemen. Dat staat aangegeven op bordjes en ook die mag u niet fotograferen.

CHILDREN'S CULTURAL CENTRE ØRESUNDSVEJ A new cultural centre for children on Amager providing children with optimum conditions for

playing and learning and for attending cultural activities for the young.

The house is built adjoining Musiktorvet (The Music Plaza) in Øresundsvej and will be the first of its

kind in Denmark created from scratch in cooperation with some of its future users.The house has been

designed for children, but very much by children too. Over a period of two years the artist Kerstin

Bergendal held a series of workshops inviting the future users - children from the neighbourhood and

kindergarten teachers from the nearby institutions - to make drawings and models and in this way

contribute to the layout and fitting-out of the house.

Child magnet

The cultural centre for children is to be built on the same site as Musiktorvet in Øresundsvej, forming part of the overall vision of creating a cultural venue for the neighbourhood and, in the long run, the whole city. By establishing a new meeting place for children the authorities hope to be able to reverse the trend among families with children of moving away from the area.

Harmonious, but conspicuous

Set on a corner plot between two existing buildings, the house was conceived as an extension of the existing gables. On one side is a tall housing block, on the other a lower elongated building, which means that the height of the cultural centre drops from one end to the other.At the corner the structure slopes down to single-storey height to preserve the view from and the flow of daylight into the court-yard space behind the house.

Flexible layout

The interior of the building features a number of staggered levels and an open so-called entrance pla-za, around which the various rooms and functions of the house surge up and down at different heights. The floor space is approx. 1,000 sq. m. The rooms of the house are laid out to accommodate a wide diversity of activities. At one end three workshop spaces are connected by an activity staircase/climbing slope. The layout of the workshops is flexible to allow them to be converted to other purposes over time. At the other end of the house there are rooms encouraging physical movement and performance activities.Spread throughout the house are plenty of nooks and niches which may be given a personal touch and made 'hard to get at' for grown-ups. Internal finishes have been selected for their hard-wearing properties and from a desire for different textural qualities. Exterior walls and ceilings are of painted or raw concrete. The floor of the ground level is of lacquered concrete as a continuation of the plaza outside.

Yet another cultural venue by Mandrup

With the children's cultural centre Dorte Mandrup Arkitekter once again asserts its position as a con-vincing supplier of cultural buildings on Amager. In 2001 Mandrup's Community and Cultural Centre in Holmbladsgade was opened, and in 2006 it was joined by the sports and cultural centre Prismen.

FACTS ON ØRESTAD Ørestad is down town Scandinavia - less than 10 minutes away from historic Copenhagen. Scandina-via´s main airport and the Fixed Link to Sweden are equally close by. Ørestad is the geographic centre of the Øresund Region and a gateway to Copenhagen because of its exceptional traffic connections.

CITY OF OPPORTUNITIES AND CONTRASTS Ørestad consists of four quarters each featuring its own characteristics. Ørestad Nord has been almost fully developed and in use, the Amager Fælled quarter has been partly urban developed, Ørestad City is already in use, and in Ørestad Syd the first dwellers have just moved in. The Metro, the roads, the canals, the water areas and the bicycle paths make the four quarters a whole. Today 5.000 people live in Ørestad, and you'll find large and small dwellings to fit every need, family size, age, group and purse. You will meet freehold, cooperative and subsidized family housing – along with residence halls, student housing and shared housing facilities. There is a vision for Ørestad as mixed and urban area, and housing and businesses are build side by side. About 10,000 people are employed in Ørestad businesses today. 15-20 years from now, Ørestad is expected to have aproximately 20.000 inhabitants and 60.000 - 80.000 people employed in busineses in the areas.

AREA FACTS Ørestad will be developed over the next 20 years Ørestad covers an area of more than three miles(five kilometres) from the border of the City of Copen-hagen to the Kalvebod Fælled nature reserve The width of Ørestad is approx. 650 yards (600 metres) The area of Ørestad totals 3.7 million square yards (3.1 million square metres) One third of Ørestad’s area consists of parks and green areas At least 60,000 people will be working in Ørestad At least 20,000 people will be living in Ørestad Almost 20,000 people are already studying in Ørestad There are six Metro stations in Ørestad 10 minutes from Ørestad City to Kongens Nytorv by Metro 29 minutes from Ørestad Station to Malmø Central station in Sweden by regional train Examples of businesses already located in Ørestad: DR – Danish Broadcasting Corporation, Ferring Pharmaceuticals, DELL, Medicon Valley Academy, UCB Pharma Nordics, Medtronic, Master Food, Nikon, Biogen, Accenture, GlaxoSmithKline, Novo Nordisk Scandinavia You will see the exciting and prize winning architecture in Ørestad: Ørestad Gymnasium, the VM-housing, The Mountaiun Dwellings, the Concert Hall at DR (Danish Broadcasting Company), the IT-University and the Tietgen Recidence for students Four Sections Ørestad is divided into four city sections, each with its own distinctive character: Ørestad Nord, Amager Fælled, Ørestad City and Ørestad Syd, which are being developed at different speeds. Ørestad Nord and Ørestad City are already in use. At the moment, business development is concen-trated especially on Ørestad City and Ørestad Syd – the northern part being practically finished and inhabited. Both Danish and international architects such as Foster+Partners (UK), Daniel Libeskind (US) and Jean Nouvel (FR) have been chosen to create housing and offices for the future in Ørestad. A young neighbourhood In autumn, 2006 Gallup, the market research company, took the pulse of this section of the city by asking all new arrivals about their background.

The analysis revealed that as much as 71% of the inhabitants of Ørestad are below 40 years of age – compared to 48% in the rest of Copenhagen. More than two thirds have a higher education, while the figure is 39% for the rest of the city. Ørestad has more families with young children than the rest of Copenhagen; 28% of the interviewees have children who live at home, the figure for the rest of Co-penhagen being 25%. Moreover, the below-30s in Ørestad constitute a larger group than in the rest of Copenhagen (33% to 23%). Halfway to SOLD OUT The development of Ørestad moves steadily ahead. Well over one half of the 3,1 billion square me-tres have already been sold, which means that the development of the quarter could be finalized with-in the next 15 years, dependent on the economic conditions. The selling of building rights is of course one of the main tasks of CPH City & Port Development. However, the Corporation also sees it as its duty to participate in the creation of’ a multifaceted and attractive urban life between all the new workplaces and dwellings. BYLIV – ‘Urban Life’ – is among the initiatives that is instrumental in the realization of new projects that will make Ørestad into a pleas-ant and dynamic place to live, work and visit.

Health care in Ørestad is no different than in the rest of the Municipallity of CopenhagenIt is the municipallity who caters for homeservice and houses for the elderly/retirements home etc. Dwellings are being built in cooperation with the social housing companies. Furthermore new homes for the elderly will be built in Ørestad South durring 2012 –KAB will built 114 Below figures shows the agedifference in Ørestad.

DENMARK'S LARGEST RESIDENTIAL BUILDING PREMIERES 4. juni 2010

One of Denmark´s most spectacular building projects – "8TALLET", which may be rendered as "DIG-IT8" – is now ready for habitation. The new dwellers will experience something quite extraordinary in one of Denmark´s largest residen-tial buildings, situated in Ørestaden. 8TALLET was designed by the internationally renowned architect firm Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), known, among other achievements, for the Danish contribution to the World Expo in Shanghai, for VM Husene in Ørestad City and for VM Bjerget, chosen as the best resi-dential building project in the world.

8TALLET boasts a fine view over Kalvebod Fælled bordering Ørestad – Copenhagen´s new interna-tional urban neighbourhood – only 12 minutes with the Metro from central Copenhagen and Kongens Nytorv. The 476 new dwellings consist of urban houses, penthouse flats with their own gardens, and regular flats. A significant feature of the building is a one kilometre long path winding its way along the fa-çades into a double bow at the top of the building. The building is situated at the edge of the endless plains of Amager, more than twice the size of Dyrehaven north of Copenhagen. "The challenge working within the city plans of the authorities has been creating a framework securing that there is urban life and identity inside the building, so that not everything has to happen in the streets between separate buildings, commercial areas and residents. The idea was not to design a building, but to design a neighbourhood," says Finn Nørkjær, architect and partner in BIG. Much inspiration comes from the co-operative building projects Kartoffelrækkerne and Humleby in Copenhagen – according to Bjarke Ingels, these residential areas provide excellent opportunities for spontaneity and a vibrant milieu. "8TALLET is the kind of building projects you only find in Ørestaden. Building a city on a barren field gives designers more room, in every sense of the word. 8TALLET is a good example of that. This building underlines that Ørestad does not look like any other city quarter in Copenhagen – it is very much its own," says Jens Kramer Mikkelsen, managing director of CPH City & Port Development. FACTS about 8TALLET: 476 dwellings: flats, penthouse flats and urban houses Small green patios and balconies for practically all dwellings Communal rooms including a roof terrace in the cross of 8TALLET Total area: 62,000 sqm – 10,000 sqm are reserved for commercial use Pre-première: June 6th. Start of sales: June 13 Architects: Bjarke Ingels Group Client: St. Frederikslund Holding A/S

donderdagmiddag Education architecture in Orestad Tietgen hall of residence in Ørestad, Denmark The Tietgen hall of residence in Ørestad is designed by architects Lundgaard and Tranberg. The building's circular form makes it quite unique and an architectural attraction in Ørestad. The new hall of residence is designed as a circular building with seven floors which encircle a green courtyard. The circular shape is intersected by five vertical incisions. The five incisions divide the building visually and functionally into sections. The passages between the sections provide access to the courtyard and the floors of the building.

Orestad college 3XNs award winning (Best building in Scandinavia 2007) Ørestad Gymnasium (upper secondary school) creates a framework for cross-disciplinarity and an extended use of IT-based learning by revo-lutionizing educational space in a structure without traditional classrooms. Four boomerang shaped storey decks rotate in relation to each other like the shutter of a camera. They form the framework of the college, and provide space for the college’s four study zones. Each zone is on one level, providing organisational flexibility, with the option of micro adjustment to create different spaces, learning envi-ronments and group sizes. Creative use of media and communications technology is part of the school’s pedagogy.
