The existing hall complex has been built over many rounds and has thus been given a complex architectural expression, without a clear hierarchy. Instead of adding another building volume with its own architectural expression to the complex, we have continued Hall 1’s composition and sought a holistic approach that brings together Hall 1 and Hall 4 under one roof. The holistic approach creates a clear hierarchy in the many buildings and at the same time enables an extension in a contemporary architecture.

The new Hall 4 lies on a plateau on the plot in the slightly sloping landscape towards Viborgvej and Gu- denåen. The floating roof of the current Hall 1 will be continued beyond the new Hall 4. At the same time, the lines from the tile volume will be continued into the facade processing of the new hall.
