Architectural beauty on Michael Anchers Vej
A complete transformation has changed this ageing 50s home with red-tiled facade and asbestos-based fibre cement roof and ageing drystone wall into a stylish architectural beauty, with a view over Aalborg’s midtown and waterfront.
Architect Bjarne Poulsen has created this modern home for close family members. Bjarne Poulsen chose his materials with great care – the finely coated brickwork, steel profiles and accessories in the pressure-impregnated wood, which over time acquire a silver-grey look and fully respects the contemporary trend for homes in 2020.
The roof and building extension’s facades are clad in DS Nordic Click Seam 475 in colour silver.
Bjarne Poulsen became fascinated by steel profiles over 20 years ago, when a centrally located private home in Aalborg was untraditionally clad in steel – “It’s a timeless look and even 20 years later, the steel profiles are really sharp. It’s also easy to work with, and Click Seam makes it much easier to install.”
