The Niels Bohr Science Park was favourably received in connection with the MIPIM property fair in Cannes this year.

The winning proposal by Vilhelm Lauritzen Arkitekter and Christensen & Co Arkitekter for the new science faculty at the University of Copenhagen was ‘Commended’ in the MIPIM Architectural Review Future Project Awards 2011.

MIPIM is the world’s leading property fair and this year it took place in Cannes from 8 to 11 March. More than 20 000 participants attend from around the world to discuss, admire and network on construction, architecture and property development.

Since 2002 the Architectural Review has put on the Future Project Awards in cooperation with the fair. One winner and two commended projects are selected in eight different categories. The Niels Bohr Science Park was selected for commendation on the ‘Big Urban Projects’ category.

Vilhelm Lauritzen Arkitekter have received accolades at MIPIM before: in 2008 for the Regimentsparken housing estate in Farum, Denmark, and in 2002 for the relocation of the Vilhelm Lauritzen Terminal at Copenhagen Airport.
