A rescue station that stands out in the landscape

On Rømø, nature is never merely a backdrop. The wind, the light and the flat landscape leave their distinct mark on the surroundings, as does the new rescue station.

Here, red roof and façade surfaces meet the rugged natural environment in a simple and consistent architectural design. Nordic Klikfals 475 has been used for both the roofing and façade cladding in GreenCoat® Pural BT Red, allowing the steel profiles to flow from the roof down across the building as one continuous surface.

This gives the architecture a sense of calm and cohesion, while the deep red colour makes the building stand out clearly in the landscape. The green doors add a further contrast and create an interplay of colours that gives the functional building its own distinctive appearance.

The building was designed by Rudolf Lolk A/S and constructed for the Danish Armed Forces.

One profile – one cohesive appearance

When the same steel cladding is used on both the roof and façade, the material becomes an active part of the architecture. Nordic Klikfals 475 is characterised by its long, clean lines and concealed fixings, giving large surfaces a simple and sharp appearance.

At the rescue station, this is further emphasised by the red finish, where the roof and façade almost merge into one another. This creates a building with a clear identity and an appearance that is both robust and refined.

Its location on Rømø also exposes the building to wind, weather and an unforgiving natural environment. Here, the steel profiles serve not only as a visual design feature, but also as roof and façade cladding for a building that must perform in demanding surroundings.

This is a building with a serious purpose. The rescue station must function in a demanding day-to-day environment and under harsh conditions, which is precisely why its striking and robust appearance suits the building’s function.
