The competition to design Denmark's Natural History Museum bring forth a plethora of incredible designs, controversy over differing visions, and one critically acclaimed winner. From 40 shortlisted entrants, six were selected as finalists, BIG architects, Lundgaard & Tranberg Architects, Snøhetta and David Chipperfield Architects.
The new museum will replace the old museums, the Zoological Museum, the Geological Museum and the Botanical Museum physically and when it comes to presentation of knowledge the university explains.
The top six tenders were awarded DKK 500,000 in order to fulfill this goal, with the winning team given a further DKK 500,000 as prize money.
The latter entry set out a simplistic objective in wanting to "to give Copenhagen and Denmark a beautiful museum, where the garden and its history still plays the lead role" according to Lene Tranberg of Lundgaard & Tranberg Architects, while BIG Architects used a more complex design ideology.
Industry favourites BIG architects and Lundgaard & Tranberg Architects, in association with architect Claus H. Pryds, exemplify the way approaches to shortlisted designs can differ even as objectives overlap.
In a unique move by the designers, interior elements will make as much impact on the exteriors as they will on the inside spaces, with the most notable addition that of a giant whale skeleton lit from the inside of the new and semi-transparent addition to make it appear as a façade feature.
The project is expected to complete on 2016/2017.
