Steel and timber give the library a new meeting place

Risskov Library has gained an extension that expands the library’s role as a local gathering place. The new building was not designed for lending books, but for events, talks and other community activities.

The extension is clad with Nordic Klikfals on both the roof and façades. The gables and selected details are finished with timber panels, adding warmth to the clean steel aesthetic.

Together, the materials create a calm and inviting setting for the library’s new function.

A strong choice for extensions

When constructing an extension, it is important to choose materials that work both practically and architecturally. Steel profiles are quick to install, have a long service life and require minimal maintenance.

At the same time, sheet steel offers great design freedom. It can be used for clean, modern solutions and adapted to existing buildings where old and new must meet with respect for the overall design.
