Copper roof overlooking Aalborg’s waterfront

Håndværkernes Hus in the heart of Aalborg has a long and vibrant history. The building was home to the Aalborg Craftsmen’s Association from 1867 to 1975 and has since housed Rio Bravo, Kalejdoskop and BIO 5, among others. Today, there are restaurants at street level, while the building remains a prominent part of the city’s historic centre.

The architects BJØRK & MAIGÅRD have revitalised the property, turning it into a distinctive feature of the cityscape. Luxury flats have been created on the top floor, with views of the waterfront, Toldbod Plads and Nytorv.

The renovation was carried out with respect for the building’s history. The original details have been carefully restored, and the old logo of the Aalborg Craftsmen’s Association has been preserved and reinstated on the façade.

Copper with patina and character

The roof, which provides access to a balcony, is clad in Nordic Klikfals Copper. Over time, the copper will develop a beautiful patina, giving the roof even greater depth and character.

The choice of material creates a strong connection between traditional craftsmanship and modern architecture. At the same time, Nordic Klikfals Copper gives the roof a precise and refined appearance that complements both the building and its location in the city.

DS Stålprofil also supplies prefabricated copper flashings, customised for the specific project and ready for installation. This provides a cohesive solution in which the details support the overall design.
