The Lighthouse is located on America Wharf in Copenhagen’s Open Harbour, which has been converted to a dense urban quarter of new projects placed among historical warehouses.The project takes advantage of the spectacular views of the Open Harbour, the Fortification, and the entire central Østerbro neighbourhood while also screening the apartments from the rail yards and the heavily trafficked Kalkbrænderihavnsgade.The Lighthouse contains 89 apartments and consists of an open block of 4-6 storeys and a tower of 15 storeys, encircling a courtyard elevated over underground parking.Pronounced dormers and bays, together with characteristic sloped rooflines, give the project its unique architectural expression. The sculptural effect is emphasized by the slate shingle cladding, which changes with the weather and light.
