The building stands out like a vast, dazzling sculpture on the edge of land and sea, reflecting both sky and harbor space as well as the active lifestyle of the city. Henning Larsen Architects, the Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson, and the German engineering firms Rambll and ArtEngineering GmbH collaborated closely to create the outstanding façades.
Harpa means ‘harp’ in Icelandic. It is also the Icelandic name for the first month of spring, and thus a sign of brighter times. Today, the most visited attraction of the volcanic island carries the name – Harpa. Between a rock-solid core and a crystalline shell, everyday life unfolds in the expansive foyer – where a varied mix of playing children, yoga classes, concert guests, and international conference delegates have embraced the space altogether. — Henning Larsen
The project was the winner of the prestigious European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture: Mies van der Rohe, in 2013. Its geometric façade is based on a modular, space-filling construction termed the quasi brick, which is reminiscent of the crystalline basalt columns typical in Iceland. The pseudo brick modules include color-effect filter glass panes; the structure shimmers in response to the weather, time of year or day, and the position and motions of spectators.

Henning Larsen has unveiled the “Fritz Hansen Pavilion,” a sustainably designed pavilion for the 3 day of design event in Copenhagen. The Pavilion is located in Designmuseum’s Grønnegården, and is designed with a Nordic approach, centered on daylight, low-carbon materials, and circular design principles.
Since the 1920s, Designmuseum Denmark has called one of Copenhagen's Rococo structures homes. The area was repurposed as a museum in 1926 by architects Ivar Bentsen and Kaare Klint after being constructed in 1752 as Royal Frederik's Hospital.
