Henning Larsen Architects has become globally known thanks to projects strongly linked to the places where they are built. A prime example of this research is the recently completed residential complex The Wave.

The Wave was built in the Danish municipality of Vejle, right on the banks of the Vejle Fjord. This area of Denmark is known to be the only hilly area in the country. Henning Larsen’s team of architects, therefore, decided to pay homage to the surrounding landscape by recreating the terrain in the silhouette of the complex, which consists of what has been called five artificial hills.

The Wave, with its 15,000 square meters, in addition to housing hundreds of apartments overlooking the fjord, has now become a symbol of the city, visible from miles away.
