Experimentarium

The scientific centre by CEBRA in Copenhagen features a helix staircase that welcomes you with its radiating copper cladding as soon as you pass the entrance.

The building’s different functions are made visible to the city in the form of stacked boxes, which are offset from the base and open themselves towards their surroundings with large expanses of glass, creating a visual connection to the scientific universe inside.

The boxes are clad with a lightweight facade of perforated aluminium panels, forming a contrast to the base, where the existing brickwork is preserved and emphasizes the meeting between old and new, between past and future, and between natural science and engineering.

The first visitor experience is the Helix staircase that welcomes you with its radiating copper cladding as soon as you pass the entrance. Right away, it lets visitors know that they have entered a world of science. The 100m long staircase is built from 160 tons of steel and clad with ten tons of copper.
