This new building for the employees at the energy company will, beside from being a great work environment, also be ground-breaking in terms of architecture and sustainability.

A simple and timeless design with a slanted cut on the top floor offers a dynamic, round building, that reflects SE´s company profile and the grandness of the western Danish landscape.

A spacious atrium in the center of the building provides light and airiness for all workspaces within the building. Visitors and employees are met and greeted by a large reception and showroom area, from where one via the atrium can get an overview of the entire building.
