‘Ø1, Copenhagen Harbor’s Floating Islands’ - Marshall Blecher & Magnus Maarbjerg

Australian architect Marshall Blecher and Danish designer Magnus Maarbjerg have joined forces in the creation of their latest project: a man-made wooden island, complete with a linden tree, that is currently floating in Copenhagen’s harbor.

The 20-square-meter platform is a handmade prototype for a larger project called Copenhagen Islands, a series of experimental floating public spaces in the Copenhagen harbor aimed at democratizing the water. CPH-01, as the first platform is known, is a “small island” with “big ideas”. Conceived as a metaphor for a desert island, the Copenhagen Islands team explain that it “represents the first taste of a completely new type of public space coming to Copenhagen. Moveable, floating, public spaces free for people to explore and conquer.” The island will float around the harbor for the next year, free for anyone to use who stumbles (or drifts) upon it. Once further iterations of the Copenhagen Islands are brought to life, they will join CPH-01 on the water, “During winter and for special events or festivals, the islands can be brought together, creating a cluster more easily accessed from the harborside” the team explains. Beyond these platforms, there will also be a floating sauna, floating gardens, floating mussel farms and a floating sail-through cafe: all free to the public.

Magnus Maarbjerg from Danish design studio Fokstrot teamed up with Australian architect Marshall Blecher a couple of years ago to create floating wooden islands for the Copenhagen harbor. They built a prototype – a 20-square-meter floating platform with a linden tree – to show how perfectly the design can be...

【建築設計】哥本哈根的浮島公園

人類文明發展愈快，給自然破壞愈強烈：碳排放不斷增加、溫室效持續加劇、冰川加速融化、海平面上升等現象，均是地球的自然反撲。

危機當前，澳洲建築師 Marshal Blecher 和丹麥設計師 Magnus Maarbjerg 嘗試重新構想未來的生活，並向哥本哈根的政府發起非營利的建築方案「哥本哈根人造島嶼計畫」（Copenhagen Islands Project，又稱 Parkipelago），試圖替海港引進嶄新的公共空間型態，實踐海港與綠地和諧共生的目標。

人工浮島的特性，既可為人類提供更多活動空間，其水平面上下的位置亦能給予野生動物提供躲藏、休息及繁殖的位置，甚至達到降低水溫，藉由依附的水生植物改善水質等成效。2018 年，Marshal 和 Magnus 先於南方港口邊，運用傳統木製造船技術，興建首座約 20 平方公尺的實驗性無人島原型「CPH-Ø1」，收集用家意見，再向政府建議「人造島嶼計畫」進一步的細節。即使去年疫情突爆，面對封關、隔離等考驗，他倆仍如期釋出詳細的設計概念、形象圖與建築規劃，使新島嶼「Ø2」及「Ø3」 於本年可繼續啟動施工。

「Ø2」及「Ø3」延續開放及可移動的公共空間概念，島上的基建功能又加以提昇，規劃成漂浮的桑拿浴室、水產養殖場、展覽及講座場地，甚至設有咖啡室。偶爾若需舉辦大型活動，各小島又可連結成大島，或可視季節調整放置位置及方式，善用未被充分利用的海洋角落，群眾只要乘小船即可自由登陸，體驗島嶼新生活。

A public space that floats in the Copenhagen harbor.

Architects Magnus Maarbjerg of Danish design studio Fokstrot and Copenhagen-based Australian Marshall Blecher have completed the first phase of their ambitious project which re-imagines public parks in a creative way. Copenhagen Islands brings a new range of public spaces into the city’s harbor area. The project aims to create a sequence of wooden platforms brought together in a mobile, floating “Parkipelago.”

Australian architect Marshall Blecher and Magnus Maarbjerg from design studio Fokstrot, have created CPHØ1, a prototype floating island which will move around Copenhagen harbor.The Island, which is free to anyone to use, will move around the harbor over the next year, and can be used for fishing, barbecues, camping, and swimming. It will also host small events at different locations.

Nel porto della capitale danese arrivano le "Copenhagen Islands"

Il progetto delle #CopenhagenIslands a completa disposizione dei cittadini danese. Sarà adattabile anche in #Italia?

A partire da questo inverno una piccola imbarcazione in legno ha iniziato ad invadere le acque del porto della capitale danese. La piattaforma CPH – Ø1 è ovviamente ancora un prototipo in fase di sperimentazione ed appartiene ad un più ampio progetto architettonico dal nome Copehagen Islands. Promotori dell’opera sono Marshall Blecher e Magnus Maarbjerg, due designer appartenenti allo studio…

Artificial Island is the First of Nine Proposed Floating Cultural Destinations in Copenhagen Harbor

A tiny, manmade island floats near the center of Copenhagen Harbor. Rooted inside of the wooden platform is a single linden tree, which gives the 215-square-foot pentagon the appearance of a park rather than a stray dock. Australian architect Marshall Blecher teamed up with Magnus Maarbjerg from Danish design studio Fokstrot to build the public gathering place as a prototype for their project Copenhagen Islands.

The project aims to build a series of similar platforms throughout Copenhagen Harbor with a variety of public purposes. Despite its diminutive size, the current island has already hosted a few small events including a lecture series regarding the future of harbor cities like Copenhagen.

The team has proposed nine islands, each of which can connect to form a larger island, or what the architect’s refer to as a “parkipelago.” Currently there are plans for a stage, coffee shop, sauna, diving board, and mussel farm which will all be accessible via boat. With an increase in large-scale apartment buildings filling the area, Maarbjerg and Blecher hope their plan will bring more cultural opportunities to the expanding coast.

“It was developed to ​introduce life and activity to Copenhagen’s rapidly developing harbour and to ​bring back some of the whimsy that has been lost in ​its development,” said Blecher in Dezeen.

This first stage of the project was funded by the Statenskunstfond and Havnekulturpuljen, a local organization that promotes the expansion of cultural and sporting events in the surrounding harbor. The two are working with Statenskunstfond and other not-for profits to help fund their next stage. The island is currently located in Slusen, in Copenhagen’s South Harbor, but will move north to the area of Refshaleøen later this spring. (via Dezeen)

This hand-built island is the start of Copenhagens parkipelago of floating public spaces

A tiny wooden island floating in Copenhagen harbor is bringing life and interest back to the city’s waters. Australian architect Marshall Blecher and Magnus Maarbjerg of Danish design studio Fokstrot designed CPH-Ø1, an experimental floating island park buoyed by recycled plastic bottles that could bring about more floating public spaces all along the city’s waters. Created as a prototype for the Copenhagen Islands project, the 215-square-foot timber island is punctuated by a single linden tree… This hand-built island is the start of Copenhagens parkipelago of floating public spaces syndicated from findqueenslandelectricians.wordpress.com
