Article source: EFFEKT Thurøhus is a new apartment building located on Thurøvej – a unique location in the dense city fabric of Frederiksberg, Copenhagen. Thurøhus is a reinterpretation of the typical Frederiksberg perimeter block, referencing the existing historical surroundings in materials and details, but at the same time offering a new interpretation and rejuvenation of the typology.

A trichotomy breaks down the volume into three smaller sections and allows for variation in the apartment typologies. The building creates a new architectural identity that interacts with both the facade rhythm of the town houses and the distinctive church volume.
