Birkerød House 
Copenhagen

New 1st floor roof extension
150 sqm
2019 - ongoing

Djernes & Bell are designing a 1st floor extension to an existing single storey 1960’s house adjacent a historic forest north of Copenhagen. The design allows the family to enjoy new voluminous living spaces and provides large habitable dormer windows that allow connection and views to the treetops. By reusing existing walls and roof new built interventions are kept to a minimum which in turn creates minimum demolition waste as well as minimum new materials required.
