The Salling Roofgarden - an extension to the popular Salling Rooftop - is now open. Surrounded by trees and hundreds of plants, the new garden located on the roof of the historic 6-story department store adds 1,400m²/15,070 ft² to the existing rooftop, offering citizens and visitors a piece of #urbannature in the busy city center. A #verticalgarden on the facade facing the pedestrian shopping street runs through all six stories, connecting the roof to the street level. The entire city can be viewed from the new lookout platform 35 meters/115 feet above the city’s streetscape while skywalks make it possible for people to move between the different facilities, even offering a peek into the department store's ground floor. The Salling Roofgarden is done by Henning Larsen in collaboration with Ramboll group and A.Enggaard Photos by Martin Schubert. #arch_shovel#architecture#henninglarsen
