What is Asgers Have? 🇩🇰DK

Our inspiration comes from ØsterGro, with raised beds for growing produce, and the possibility to sell weekly food boxes to local residents with "roof-produced" vegetables, honey, eggs, etc.

The restaurant will be a key feature of the neighborhood's main street, Asger Jorns Allé, and generate life and activity. Our goal is that the restaurant, in combination with the roof farm and cooking school, will give back to the local community all year round.

Ørestad Cooking school will offer cooking course and events for companies and private individuals. The courses will have different themes to attract people in different age groups and with different interests. The cooking school will aim to be a local gathering place for food enthusiasts, who want to learn and cultivate their passion.

The roof will include a larger open area where people can gather, as well as smaller demarcated niches with benches, chairs, and canopies.

A pavilion or orangery with the character of a lecture hall could be the setting for meetings and events. Inspiration could be found from the dome at Grennessminde, just west of Copenhagen.

We would like to see bees and chickens that produce honey and eggs for the restaurant, cooking school, and produce boxes. In addition, a "Borrow-a-chicken" scheme could be run for local residents, similar to the one set up by Miljøpunkt Østerbro. We also envisage a small lake on the roof with fish.

The parking garage will have an external staircase, leading visitors up from the street to the roof (as seen in 'Bjerget' by BIG and Lüders P-hus in Nordhavn). In this way, the visitor experience will already start at street level. The staircase will lead to a green path on the roof, that will connect the different elements of Asgers Have together.
