Denmark's Iceberg Project was an architectural innovation that's out of the box. Because of the architects' intention to provide the best ocean views and convenience, they defied restrictions. Hence, it's just right to unravel the importance of architecture as an investment with a connection to globalization.
The future in globalization also lies in architecture development. "Globalised commercial architecture" is the trend now where a structure is also part of urbanization.
According to Archdaily, the Iceberg is one of the most expensive buildings in the world. The project didn't mind the cost of expenses because it only aims for perfection. Thus, many sought it now because of its complexities. "Quality in architecture is a value sooner or later will deliver something in return," this is also the thought of investment.
For the Iceberg, the project was able to get the attention of many investors despite its high-impact budget-design because they know that it will really offer quality at the end. It only proves that Denmark is already on the move towards globalization. The masterpiece is slowly proving itself now as a perfect investment for development.
"Globalised commercial architecture" stray away from the tradition of simply erecting a structure. The purpose of these buildings like the Iceberg in Denmark is to gather interest with its beauty and function. Hence, it largely helps on improving the country' social, political and economical set-up.
"With the Iceberg we get unique housing qualities as well as a city architectural expression of the highest quality", says Danish Architecture Centre Admin Director Kent Martinussen said as quoted on JDS official website. It is the design studio which mainly handled the Iceberg Project construction.
The director is expressing his high appreciation of the development which is now an icon of Aarhus, Denmark city development. Those who are living on the place are well-provided with affordable housing and premium living condition hence all wants to get a piece of it. With that, it is surely a successful "globalized commercial architecture" now.
