3daysofdesign

Petersen Tegl took part in Denmark's annual design festival – 3daysofdesign – again this year. The setting was the Petersen Tegl Studio, which also marked its first anniversary at the same time.

3DAYSOFDESIGN

This year, we asked two architects who have worked very closely with the brickworks to present their very different and exciting projects.

Francesca Torzo - Z33

Architect Francesca Torzo talked about her latest work to reach completion. The façade and courtyard on Z33 – an extension to the House for Contemporary Art and Architecture in the Belgian town of Hasselt – are clad in specially moulded, handmade rhombus-shaped bricks.

3DOD - Kristian Winther

Architect Kristian Winther of Arup talked about designing Cityringen (M3). Four of the stations on the new Metro line in Copenhagen have underground walls clad in a customised version of Kolumba.

Copenhagen Metro

The two projects and the specially developed bricks are on display in the Petersen Studio until 1 November.
