Amaryllis Hus
Type of project
Multi-storey building Grønttorvet Valby
Brick used
3373 Safari
Year of construction
2018
The façades of Amaryllis Hus were built using Matzen Tegl 3373 Safari – a handstruck yellow/black brick with a warm, varied surface texture. The combination of the light yellow base and dark shadows in the Safari bricks gives the façade depth and character. This creates a vibrant appearance that perfectly complements the relief brickwork and architectural lines of the building.
Architects
Amaryllis Hus is a striking residential development located in the green Copenhagen neighbourhood of Grønttorvet where modern architecture, nature and brickwork come together in perfect harmony. The project was designed by Mangor & Nagel in collaboration with AART and Tegnestuen LOKAL. It is as a rectangular building of 4 to 6 storeys, featuring an iconic tower of 15 storeys.

The development comprises 83 owner-occupied flats ranging from 65-146 m² – all featuring balconies or terraces and large floor-to-ceiling windows that let in light from every direction.
Awards
Amaryllis Hus was awarded the Copenhagen Municipality Building Award and Public Award 2019 – a quality stamp for a project where brick, sustainability and modern architecture unite perfectly.
