At Amager Fælled, the Municipality of Copenhagen are establishing a new urban forrest as a part of an initiative to increase the amount of urban trees substantially. Simultaneously, the area is known as one of the best places for birdwatching in Copenhagen.

It felt obvious to establish a tower for birdwatching as one of the first structures on site. It allows visitors to get a good vantage point for observing the landscape and the wildlife but is also a point of reference in the vast landscape. The tower is clad in surplus wood from hard-wood floor manufacturer Junckers Trægulve. The boards have been given an angular cut and have been treated with pigmented linseed oil. To help us with the painting and the mounting of the boards we partnered up with a bunch of 3rd graders from a local school.
