JERNSTØBERIGRUNDEN

New Residential Development on the Jernstøberigrunden in Holbæk.

Located on the former iron foundry site in Holbæk, this new residential development comprises four distinct towers, rising between six and eight floors. The towers are embedded in generous green spaces, designed to foster community interaction across all age groups. In total, the project introduces 132 new apartments, ranging from two- to four-room units.

The towers are characterized by a clean white facade that references the nearby harbor front housing, establishing a visual continuity within the local context. A modern architectural language composed of simple, refined elements ensures a harmonious integration with the surroundings. Each apartment is equipped with a private balcony or terrace, while select top-floor units offer exclusive rooftop terraces with panoramic views over Holbæk Fjord. The balconies are conceived as an integral part of the architectural expression, strategically placed where the facade shifts according to the internal apartment layout.

Conceived as four sculptural, standalone volumes, the towers offer both a strong architectural identity and high functional performance. Each apartment is oriented towards at least two cardinal directions, ensuring natural daylight, visual connections to the surroundings, and an enhanced quality of life.

ZESO Architects are responsible for the architectural and landscape design, including concept development, planning, and consultancy services.
