Now, after I went to Los Angeles, our trip took us further up to San Francisco and Napa Valley. San Francisco was probably my favorite place of the cities we went too - I liked the hilly geography and the smaller houses. However, for the blog I will now return to the main objective of doing this - which was to compare real estate in Denmark from how it is in America.
If I were to say what sets Danish real estate a part from not only the US but for the world, it would be the architecture. Denmark is world renounced for their architectural abilities and prints of this ability can be seen all over the world.
The first piece of real estate I want to highlight is an iconic building build close to the central business district at the harbor point of Sidney. The Opera House was constructed in 1972 and drawn by Danish architect Joern Utzon.
It has been an iconic landmark of Australia since it's opening and shows how innovative and how much impact Danish architecture has on the world. Another good example is a newly opened educational program center in Damaskus in Syria. Made by Danish architectural company ' Henning Larsen Architects' this is a state of the art educational center to support young people in Syria.
The building's outside is inspired by the Danish rose. When they build the building the architectures wanted a shell structure allowing a playful and dazzling scenography of light into the interior spaces - like light filtering between rose petals. All of the administrative areas are placed within these petals creating a labyrinth of hallways inside the peace of real estate. These pathways are inspired by the walk in the streets of the old city of Damascus formed by the walls and with only the sky as the window.
Quite clearly, Danish architecture has a huge impact around the world these two are just examples on the impact.
