Timeless materiality

The police station is positioned diagonally on the square site, giving the building a strong, sharp, and precise appearance. In contrast to the monumental exterior of the police station, light natural stone has been used, which lends the building a light, timeless expression. Up close, one can sense the organic patterns of the natural material, which, in combination with jatoba wood, creates a visual calm and warmth.

High level of detail

Throughout the interior of the building, detailed impressions have been incorporated, which can be experienced through the choice of materials as well as in the integrated artwork created by Finn Naur Petersen. The art, consisting of small crystal lamps and figures, adorns the corridors of the police station.
